Senior Production Designer

Plotsy is pioneering the Plotsy vBook™ —transforming written books into cinematic, episodic videos through our proprietary, AI-driven Cine version™ process. As a Senior Production Designer, you will not just execute beautiful designs; you will own the visual standard for our entire slate and build the design systems and team capable of hitting it.

• 40% Elite Design Execution: You own the hardest assignments. You will design the foundational cast, environments, and color/light keys for new titles that serve as the blueprint for the rest of the production.
• 40% Team Mentorship & Review: You will review the work of Production Designers before it hits the Show runner. You catch consistency issues early and coach artists to improve their technical and creative output.
• 10% Pipeline & Workflow Engineering: You own the Design Playbook . You define the structural asset conventions and standards for what makes a design "consistent enough to generate from." You partner with the Principal AI Production Engineer to test new models and integrate them into the workflow.
• 10% Leadership
  
  Collaboration:
  
  You will partner closely with the CCO, CTO, CPO, and COO to set the operational pace, training structures, and production processes for the entire creative team.

• Create Visual DNA: Translate book prose into comprehensive design packages (character reference sheets across multiple angles, architectural environments, and emotional color scripts).
• Enforce Character Consistency: Ensure characters maintain exact structural continuity across varied lighting, wardrobe changes, and cinematic angles.
• Systemize Handoffs: Structure asset libraries so that downstream Directors and Editors can locate and deploy assets seamlessly weeks into production.
• Iterate and Refine: Take on rapid design revisions when assets fail or distort during the motion and rendering pipeline phases.

• Senior Art Background: Proven experience as a Production Designer, Art Director, or Lead Concept Artist. We want to see entire worlds carried across a body of work, not just isolated illustrations.
• Generative AI Mastery: Deep, production-grade command of AI tools (e.g., Midjourney, Control Net, reference conditioning, seed management, and advanced upscaling).
• Traditional Art Foundation: Elite grounding in anatomy, perspective, and lighting. You must be able to manually paint over and fix what the AI model gets wrong.
• Pipeline Judgment: The ability to look at a design and know instantly whether our generation stack can reproduce it consistently in motion.
• Systems Thinking & Mentorship: Experience building toolsets, templates, or playbooks that others have successfully executed, paired with a natural ability to coach junior artists.
