Storyboard Creation
Create performance-driven storyboards for paid social ads — defining the full visual flow of each concept: talking head, B-roll, actions, hooks, and on-screen text.
Specify exactly what the actor is doing and showing in every moment — your storyboards should be executable without additional direction.
Provide clear guidance to editors on what to do: include stock footage, generate with AI, add motion graphics, etc.
Develop strong hooks, angles, and ad structures based on what's currently working across Meta and other platforms.
Creative Strategy
Think in scroll-stopping moments, pattern interrupts, and retention drivers — and build those into every concept.
Iterate concepts based on performance data and creative feedback.
Stay on top of trends, formats, and winning ad patterns across DTC and direct-response categories.
Collaborate closely with marketing, editors, and copywriters to improve results.
Editing
Edit ads when needed to execute or refine your own storyboard concepts.
Use Adobe Premiere Pro as the primary editing tool, with After Effects as needed.
Use AI tools (avatars, voice, generative video, etc.) to supplement and enhance creative output.
WHAT WE OFFER
What We’re Looking For
Experience in storyboarding for ads
Experience with DTC brands or UGC formats
Strong understanding of performance marketing and direct-response principles
Understanding of core performance metrics (hook rate, hold rate, retention)
Strong instinct for what feels native to each platform
Familiarity with current trends and ad formats
Comfortable using AI tools (avatars, voice, generative video, etc.)
Solid editing skills (Premiere Pro / After Effects)
Strong written English (clear, concise, conversion-focused)
Ability to work fast, iterate, and handle multiple concepts simultaneously
