What You'll Do

  • Watch and segment video content into individual shots, confirming accurate shot boundaries
  • Annotate each shot with camera angle, shot size, and camera movement
  • Describe on-screen action in clear, concise, structured language
  • Apply stylistic and tonal tags — lighting style, visual mood, genre feel — where relevant
  • Use predefined taxonomies and labeling frameworks to ensure consistency across the dataset
  • Flag ambiguous transitions, unclear shots, or edge cases for review
  • Maintain accuracy and consistency across high-volume annotation workflows

Must-Have

  • Solid understanding of core film grammar: shot types, camera angles, and movement terminology
  • Comfortable working in structured tools such as labeling interfaces, spreadsheets, or annotation platforms
  • High attention to detail with the ability to stay consistent across repetitive tasks

Nice To Have

  • Background in video editing, assistant editing, cinematography, or post-production
  • Prior experience in data annotation, dataset labeling, or AI training workflows
