Gen-AI Video Editor

Lokmat Media Pvt. Ltd · India

Purpose of the Role

This is a high-impact role responsible for significantly increasing the volume and visual quality of content across four accounts in two languages over a 12-month period.

The role will use AI to create content that cannot always be shot traditionally — including historical recreations, mythological sequences, generative b-roll and restored archival material .

You will be the volume multiplier and visual differentiator for the team, while also carrying a high level of editorial and ethical responsibility. This role requires strong creative judgement, production skills and responsible use of AI — not just tool proficiency.

Key Responsibilities

• Produce AI-assisted and AI-generated video content , including generative b-roll, historical and mythological recreations, image-to-video sequences, and restoration/upscaling of archival devotional and historical material.
• Build repeatable AI-generation pipelines that deliver consistency across content — including characters, visual style, colour grade and overall look — so the output works as a system rather than a series of one-off prompts.
• Scale the team's content output without compromising quality. All AI-generated content must meet the same production and export standards as traditionally filmed content.
• Handle AI voice and audio production wherever appropriate, ensuring the pronunciation of every Sanskrit term is verified by a qualified person before publication.
• Own AI disclosure and ethical publishing practices. AI-generated deity imagery must never be presented as traditional or authentic. AI usage must be clearly disclosed wherever applicable.
• Stay updated on evolving AI tools and technologies , evaluating new platforms and workflows and introducing tools that genuinely improve the production pipeline rather than simply following trends.
• Collaborate closely with the Video Editor to ensure AI-generated and traditionally filmed footage work together seamlessly within one consistent visual language.

What We Need

• 2+ years of hands-on production experience using generative video and image tools such as Runway, Kling, Veo, Sora, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion or their successors .
• A portfolio of finished and published work demonstrating practical application of generative AI — not just experiments or test generations.
• Strong video editing skills , with professional-level proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve .
• Demonstrated ability to maintain visual consistency across a series , including character consistency, style consistency and grade consistency.
• Strong judgement around religious, cultural and editorial sensitivity , with the ability to recognise when something requires escalation before publication.
• Clear understanding of content rights and usage restrictions , including:
• No scraped footage
• No unauthorised use of other creators' material
• No unlicensed music
• No use of a real person's likeness without appropriate rights

Good to Have

• Experience creating mythological, historical or documentary-style recreations .
• Hands-on experience with ComfyUI workflows, LoRA training or custom model fine-tuning .
• Background in 3D, compositing or visual effects .
• Prior experience working at a media house or professional publishing environment , where editorial, legal and ethical standards for publishable content are significantly higher than those of personal/social media channels.

What Success Looks Like

• Higher content output without compromising quality.
• Consistent visual identity across all four accounts and two languages.
• AI-generated and filmed footage that feels like part of the same production ecosystem.
• Faster, repeatable and scalable AI production workflows.
• Zero avoidable issues around AI disclosure, copyright, religious sensitivity or misleading representation.
