About the Role

As an AI Artist, you'll merge artistic vision with cutting-edge AI technologies to produce exceptional film and photography content, focusing specifically on executing AI workstreams, generating unique visual assets, and enhancing traditional production workflows for top-tier advertising clients. We are looking for someone who is passionate about seeking new opportunities to create impactful work, acting as a hands-on maker who lives and breathes creative solutions and loves transitioning ideas into reality through emerging tech.
Responsibilities:

• Generate high-quality visual content-specifically moving images and photography-by utilizing advanced AI tools and technologies.
• Collaborate with directors, designers, and animators to develop artistic concepts that align with brand vision and commercial objectives.
• Craft and iterate complex prompts and workflows to achieve precise lighting, composition, and styling suitable for film and photography standards.
• Integrate AI-generated assets seamlessly into traditional design, animation, and post-production workflows to create cohesive final pieces.
• Assist in presenting concepts and final works to clients, effectively incorporating feedback and refining AI workflows accordingly.
• Explore and stay ahead of industry trends, emerging technologies, and AI advancements to continuously inform our creative strategies.
• Optimize production workflows by testing and implementing new AI tools to help the team adapt to faster, more innovative ways of working.

About You
The essentials:

• 3+ years of experience in a digital production environment (such as a design studio, advertising agency, or creative studio) with a strong foundation in film, photography, or digital design.
• A compelling portfolio showcasing a strong blend of traditional visual creativity, technical skills, and AI-integrated film/photography work.
• Deep proficiency in AI tools: Figma Weave and Runway (node-based workflows) are required, alongside working knowledge of foundational image models (Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Magnific/Krea).
• Proficiency in traditional toolstacks: Adobe Creative Suite (particularly Photoshop, Premiere, and After Effects for film/photography integration).
• High tech fluency: Ability to quickly understand new tech concepts, apply critical thinking, and transition seamlessly between different AI platforms.
• Strong work style: Extremely organized, detail-oriented, and capable of self-managing in a fast-paced, demanding environment.

Not a must, but a plus:

• Video AI experience: Familiarity with AI motion and video generation tools such as Runway, LUMA, or Comfy UI.
• Audio/Voice AI experience: Exposure to AI audio tools like Eleven Labs for film soundscapes or voiceovers.
• Strong problem-solving skills: Excellent creative problem-solving capabilities with the ability to remain stress-tolerant, quick-thinking, and accurate under tight deadlines.

At Monks, we believe in fostering an environment where a diversity of perspectives can thrive. We proactively work to design hiring processes that promote equity and inclusion while mitigating bias.
