  • 2–4 years of experience in a design, motion, or creative role (agency or production studio experience is a plus).
  • Strong visual sensibility and an understanding of storytelling, composition, color, and design.
  • Confident using Adobe Creative Suite; bonus if you know After Effects, C4D, or other 3D tools.
  • Hands-on experience with the latest generative AI tools and models such as Flux, Kling, Veo, Nano Banana, and similar platforms.
