About the job Remote | Graphic Designer - Editorial, Poster & Marketing Layout - $20-$50/hour

We are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for experienced graphic and visual designers with strong expertise in typography, editorial and marketing layout, grid systems, brand and template systems, and professional Adobe or Figma production workflows to contribute to an advanced AI training and design evaluation project.

Selected professionals will analyse, annotate, and deconstruct visual design assets across print, digital, and motion formats, translating professional design judgement into structured metadata and precise written descriptions. The work requires strong visual literacy, advanced composition knowledge, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to communicate design decisions using established industry terminology. No prior experience in AI is required.

Describe framing, movement, visual flow, and spatial relationships accurately
Identify changes in composition or hierarchy across motion sequences

Quality Standards & Annotation Frameworks

Create exemplar annotations that establish quality benchmarks for project datasets
Identify ambiguous cases, missing categories, and annotation-schema edge cases
Document gaps or inconsistencies that may require guideline refinement
Collaborate with project leads and quality reviewers as annotation standards evolve
Maintain strong consistency and attention to detail across framework updates
