• Manage communication with design, post-production, and AI teams to incorporate innovative technologies where needed.
• Oversee medium-scale still and moving image shoots, coordinating with crew, AI tools, locations, and props.
• Work closely with video producers/designers on post-production.
• Liaise with procurement teams and internal cost controllers to follow set protocols in the delivery of production for that brand.
• Partner with third-party suppliers, bringing your own preferred supplier relationships into our vendor database.
• Ensure seamless integration of traditional and AI-driven creative approaches while maintaining high-quality craft.
• Support and shadow Senior Producers on large-scale productions, assist with organisation, travel, etc.
• Manage project sustainability by tracking carbon emissions via Adgreen’s Carbon Calculator and ensure ethical AI content use.
• Oversee project wrap-up, including third-party costs, final asset delivery, and financial reconciliation.

Generative AI-Specific Responsibilities

• Facilitate integration of Generative AI tools and workflows into creative and production processes, advising on how these tools can enhance and augment traditional production methods.
• Run own exploration and AI-driven content generation (text, images, video) into both concept development and production deliverables, to streamline workflow and improve turnaround times.
• Stay updated on Gen AI advancements, ensuring AI integration aligns with high creative standards.
• Promote ethical and responsible use of AI-generated content with clients and stakeholders.
