About The Role

Film Scene Description Specialist (AI Training)

We're looking for film-savvy professionals to help train the next generation of AI systems to see and understand cinema the way a director does. As a Film Scene Description Specialist at Alignerr, you'll watch scenes and translate what's on screen — framing, movement, pacing, blocking, emotional tone — into precise, structured descriptions that teach AI how visual storytelling works.

This is a unique opportunity to put your film education and eye for craft to work on something genuinely cutting-edge.

  • Organization: Alignerr

What You'll Do

  • Watch short film scenes and break them down beat by beat
  • Describe camera movement, framing choices, shot composition, and blocking with precision
  • Convey mood, pacing, and emotional tone using purely visual language — no dialogue references
  • Identify key transitions, visual reveals, and recurring motifs within scenes
  • Follow standardized formatting guidelines for beat breakdowns and scene summaries
  • Add clarity notes where visual information is ambiguous or open to interpretation
  • Maintain consistency and accuracy across a high volume of scene descriptions

Nice To Have

  • Experience with script coverage, storyboarding, shot lists, or pre-visualization workflows
