AI Filmmaker (Remote)

We're Novakid, the next-generation early English learning environment that allows kids around the world to learn English efficiently, through play and fully remote practice with certified professional teachers. Think cutting edge technology like AI-powered games and training apps that promote English speaking and comprehension based on the use of authentic content in English language.

Think certified professionals with years and decades of expertise in children's psychology and learning methods. “Our Vision is to change the way ESL children learn English by making it more engaging, elective, fun, and accessible. The ability to master the English language from an early age is critical to achieving a path of greater success and fulfillment, socially, emotionally, academically and professionally.” – Max Azarov, Founder About the Role Novakid is investing heavily in its brand, and we want films that move people.

We’re looking for an AI Film Director to create brand films with a movie-level finish, using the latest generative AI tools. You’ll take each film from brief to final master: from taking the brief to storyboard, AI generation, edit, colour and finishing. You’ll work with our sound engineer on music and sound.

Our video production team covers Novakid’s day-to-day content; your focus is our hero brand films, made for families around the globe (motion graphics and 3D/compositing chops are a real plus). This is a full-time, hands-on role in the Creative team, reporting to our Head of Creative.

Key Responsibilities Direct and deliver cinematic brand films from brief to final master Turn briefs from the Head of Creative and Brand Director into emotional, story-driven concepts that stay true to Novakid’s brand voice and visual identity Create and own Novakid’s AI film style guide (characters, worlds, look and feel) so characters and style stay consistent from film to film Refine AI output by hand (retouching, compositing, redrawing, colour grading) until every frame has a movie-level finish Work with our sound engineer on music, sound design and voice-over, including localized versions for our key markets Plan each film’s schedule and budget (tools, generation credits, freelancers when needed) and deliver on time Keep up with AI film tools and bring in new techniques that raise quality or speed Follow responsible AI practices with our Legal team: clear AI labelling, consent for any real person’s likeness or voice, and commercial rights to everything we publish Strong design background alongside video production and AI prompting skills.

Can build automated content-production workflows using AI agents, APIs or workflow tools. Own the voice acting and dubbing pipeline: work with an external casting/dubbing agency, or with per-language actor leads who source and manage further talent for their own language, to cast, record and quality-check localized voice content, attending recordings yourself to protect creative and brand quality Explore where AI voice generation fits for the existing video editors on lower-complexity projects, and build a lightweight workflow so they can use it without pulling in the full unit Integrate the AI Video Production Unit into the wider creative organization, with clean handoffs to the video editors team and the Lead Producer so both tracks reinforce each other instead of duplicating work
