About the Role We’re looking for a
video graphics animator who specializes in AI‑generated video —especially node‑based pipelines in
ComfyUI —to produce polished short‑form content and
AI influencer
videos. You’ll build repeatable workflows, ship eye‑catching visuals, and keep us on the cutting edge of generative video.
What You’ll Do
Design, build, and iterate
end‑to‑end AI video pipelines (storyboard → generation → post) using ComfyUI and complementary tools.
Create AI influencer content : persona development, look consistency, lip‑sync, expression control, and voice‑to‑video alignment; deliver platform‑ready cuts (TikTok, Reels, YT Shorts).
Own motion design & finishing : typography, transitions, overlays, color, sound design, and final QC (deflicker, stabilization, upscaling).
Standardize workflows : version‑lock nodes / models, maintain presets, and document best practices for reproducibility.
Experiment fast
with new models, motion modules, and control methods; present comparisons and recommendations.
Collaborate in real time
during the required 10 AM–1 PM Pacific window with creative, growth, and product stakeholders.
Manage media ops : assets, rights / attribution, prompt libraries, seeds, and shot catalogs.
What Success Looks Like (60–90 Days)
reusable ComfyUI pipeline
(JSON) for AI influencer shorts with lip‑sync and motion control, producing consistent character identity.
A library of
style presets
(look, typography, music beds) and a
prompt pack
for at least 3 content series.
A cadence of
3–5 publish‑ready clips / week
meeting platform specs and brand guidelines.
Clear documentation on workflow, model choices, and performance trade‑offs.
Required Skills & Experience
Portfolio of AI video work
(must include AI avatar / influencer or comparable character‑consistent content).
Expert with
ComfyUI
(custom nodes, graph optimization, batching, tiled diffusion, IP‑Adapter / Control workflows, model management).
Strong grasp of
diffusion / video fundamentals : prompting, seeds, CFG / schedulers, ref image conditioning, AnimateDiff / motion modules, control nets, frame interpolation, face restoration, upscaling, and deflicker.
Lip‑sync / audio‑driven animation
experience (e.g., Wav2Lip / SadTalker‑style pipelines or similar) and
voice‑to‑video timing .
Pro‑level finishing in one or more :
After Effects ,
Premiere Pro ,
DaVinci Resolve / Fusion , or
Nuke .
Solid motion design :
type, layout, timing, easing, transitions , and sound design basics.
System & ops savvy : GPU workflow know‑how, VRAM budgeting, render queues, file / version hygiene, and documentation.
Excellent communication; comfortable collaborating live in the
10 AM–1 PM Pacific
window.
Nice‑to‑Have
Experience with
commercial AI video tools
(e.g., Runway, Pika, Luma, etc.) and 3D integration ( Blender / Unreal ) for camera or environment work.
Python familiarity for
custom ComfyUI nodes
or lightweight automation.
Brand / social chops : hook writing, pacing for retention, and UGC‑native aesthetics.
Understanding of
synthetic‑media ethics , rights, and platform disclosure policies.
Tools You May Use Here
Generation / Orchestration :
ComfyUI (core), Stable Diffusion‑based models, motion / control modules.
Post & Finishing :
After Effects, Premiere Pro, Resolve / Fusion, Topaz / FFmpeg utilities.
Audio / Lip‑Sync :
your preferred stack for TTS, alignment, and cleanup.
Collaboration :
Slack / Meet / Notion; Git or Drive‑based versioning for graphs / assets.
Portfolio Requirements (must include links) Please include
3–6
pieces that demonstrate :
AI influencer or avatar pieces
with consistent identity across shots.
Before / after or node graph screenshots
showing your pipeline thinking.
Any
style‑matched
or
brand‑guided
work (explain constraints and results).
A brief note on
models, nodes, and parameter choices
used.
How We’ll Evaluate
Visual quality, consistency, and storytelling.
Technical rigor and reproducibility of your pipeline.
Speed from brief to publish‑ready output.
Collaboration and feedback responsiveness during the Pacific hours.
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive pay commensurate with experience and engagement type.
Fully remote; modern tool stack; fast feedback loops.
Opportunity to shape our AI content strategy and build foundational workflows.
