Visual Storytelling Prompt Writer
up to $120/hr
About this role, in Alignerr's words
What if your eye for visual storytelling could directly shape how AI sees and recreates the world on screen? We're looking for Visual Storytelling Prompt Writers to watch video clips and translate what they see into rich, structured prompts — capturing camera angles, mood, character, setting, and narrative in a way that AI models can understand and learn from.
What you'll do
- Watch video clips and write structured prompts that capture the full visual story — mood, tone, setting, and narrative arc
- Describe characters, environments, camera perspectives, and cinematic style with precision and clarity
- Balance technical shot detail (framing, movement, lighting) with emotional and narrative context
- Produce multiple prompt variants for the same clip when required

- Passionate about film, video, photography, or any form of visual storytelling
