• Collaborate closely with producers, writers, animators, AI filmmakers, and other creative team members
• Translate scripts, concepts, and creative direction into clear visual references
• Iterate quickly based on feedback and evolving production needs
• Prepare assets optimized for AI image and video-generation workflows
