Cinematography professionals and advanced film students analyze film clips to train AI systems to understand visual storytelling. You will break down camera work, shot composition, framing, and scene structure into detailed, structured annotations that help AI perceive and describe cinema.
This is a remote evaluation role for film, theater and visual effects professionals who will compare pairs of AI-generated videos made from the same prompt. The work is to judge which clip better holds up to a professional eye on lighting, framing, camera direction, continuity, texture and performance, and to explain each choice in precise, set-floor language. It suits craft specialists who can ground their judgments in how a shot is actually built and who will take part in ongoing rounds as new models are released.
