About the role

RetroStyle Games is a Ukrainian game art & development studio with 15+ years of experience. We create 2D and 3D art for games: characters, environments, props, icons, animations — everything a player sees on screen. We work with studios from all over the world and are building our own game projects and asset packs along the way.

We’re looking for an AI Video Creator/Editor to own video production from idea to publication: come up with the concept and the hook, build the video with AI tools, edit it, iterate on feedback, and deliver the final cut together with the numbers.

What you’ll do

  • Create Shorts for our 3D asset packs: meme-style and story-driven concepts in vertical 9:16 for YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels, 15–30 seconds, at least 3 shorts per pack.
  • Produce ad videos (UA, Google, Meta) based on our creatives, with lots of hook variations, together with our performance marketer.
  • Make case-study videos and trailers for studio projects for our portfolio, and possibly team content later on.
  • Run the pipeline: references → draft structure → assembly → polish → final cut.
  • Generate scenes, animation and voiceover, and assemble edits with Claude Code or Codex.
  • Watch views and ad metrics, and make variations of whatever takes off.

What matters to us

  • A strong portfolio of short vertical videos or ad creatives: you understand hooks and pacing.
  • Real, hands-on use of AI in production: Kling, Runway, Veo, Higgsfield, Fal or similar. You know how to brief an AI agent and check its output.
  • You come with ideas: you dig up references and pitch 5–10 options without being asked.
  • You estimate tasks in hours, keep statuses up to date in Linear, show work in progress, and hit deadlines.
  • English good enough for tools and prompts.

Nice to have

  • Blender or Unreal (camera flythroughs, game art).
  • After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, motion graphics.
  • Voiceover and subtitles.
  • Experience in games or with art asset packs.
  • Git and scripting.

What we offer

  • Remote work in a flexible freelance format.
  • Pay pegged to USD.
  • AI tools paid for by the studio.
  • Team support and a weekly check-in directly with the lead.
  • Freedom in tools, ideas and experiments: we care about the result, not the specific software.
