About the Role

Shark Ninja Studios is looking for an Associate Creative Director, Content Studio to help bring campaigns to life before a frame is shot.

This is an art-first creative role for someone with strong taste, visual judgment, and storytelling instincts. This person translates briefs, scripts, product stories, demos, and campaign direction into clear visual worlds through mood boards, style boards, wardrobe direction, set design references, graphic style guides, pre-production decks, and visual systems.

This role sits within the production phase of the creative process, supporting the translation of upstream strategy, product priorities, and campaign direction from category and brand leads at HQ into clear visual guidance for production and post.

The ACD will be a close creative partner to the Global Creative Director in the studio, helping shape the look, feel, tone, and visual direction across product sizzles, social-first demos, paid media, retail, You Tube, Tik Tok, Instagram, and supporting photography when needed.

Own visual development across campaigns, including mood boards, style boards, visual territories, frame references, and pre-production decks covering wardrobe, set design, set dressing, props, lighting, color, texture, casting references, and overall visual tone.

Create graphic style guides that define typography, supers, claims treatment, layouts, motion references, iconography, and visual systems for video and social content.

Translate scripts, product demos, and creative direction into visual concepts that make the idea easier to understand and execute.

Support the Global Creative Director in shaping the look and feel of product sizzles, social-first demos, paid media, retail content, and supporting photography.

Assist in boarding out concepts, demo sequences, product moments, opening frames, hooks, and key visual beats.

Partner with producers, directors, DPs, editors, designers, motion teams, CG/VFX artists, stylists, set designers, and external partners to ensure the creative intent is understood and executed.

Support casting selects, wardrobe direction, location scouting, prop direction, set dressing, and art department alignment.

Help develop social-first visual approaches, including thumbnail thinking, opening frames, vertical compositions, platform-native framing, and alternate visual treatments.

Use AI and emerging tools to accelerate visual exploration, concept development, style frames, storyboards, set visualization, and production planning.
