First employer brief just landed through the AI Filmmakers Directory. Budget: $10,000+. Gen AI and hybrid AI entertainment. I'm getting the details now and it goes on the Jobs & Gigs board this week. Want to be ready? Make sure your profile is complete: reel, specialty, tools. That's what employers see first. This is why we built it. 🎬

I made a video explaining the benefits of a Pro profile VS Free. I want to thank @Alex Lang , @Gavin Carlton , @Steve Tapia , @Benjamin Berjon for showing their faces or sharing their thoughts. It's something I've been wanting to do for months. It now appears on the Plans page and an email. Thank you all for your cooperation!

Drop these in the comments: 1. The official city you work from 2. The country that city is in 3. Just for fun: your favorite local sports team, or the thing your city is famous for (food, landmark, weird tradition, all fair game) Why do 1 and 2 matter? Employers check them early, sometimes before they even watch your reel. - Time zone. Can you make their calls and turn notes around the same day? - Contracts and taxes. Where you're based changes how they pay you and which paperwork applies. - Local shoots and incentives. Some productions need people in a specific region, or get tax credits for hiring locally. - Trust. "Remote, somewhere" feels vague. A real city makes you feel like a real person they can hire. So be specific. "Montreal, Canada," not just "Canada" or "remote." I'll start: Montréal , Canada. Team? Go Habs! 🔵⚪🔴 Your turn 👇

Hey guys, Here's the first AIFD Spotlight, made by Alex Lang (Best Utopia Film at CLOWD for "GITA"). Watch it first. It's the model for yours. Here's how it works: 1. We book a 30-minute interview on Google Meet. I ask about your background, your best work, how you make it, and what AIFD has done for you. It's recorded. 2. I send you the raw recording and the AIFD logo. 3. You edit it your way. Cut it however you like and add B-roll of your own work. It's your showcase, so make it look like you. 4. End it with the AIFD logo, while you're talking about what the directory has been worth to you. Format: vertical (9:16) please. That's what works best on Instagram, TikTok and Shorts. Crop the interview to vertical. Got horizontal footage? Use it. Crop it to vertical where you can. If a shot falls apart when cropped, place it in the middle of the vertical frame with a blurred version behind it. Don't stretch anything, and keep text and the logo away from the bottom of the screen. A horizontal version too is a bonus for YouTube and LinkedIn. 5. Send me the finished file (Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer). I post it on AIFD's Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Threads and LinkedIn, with your name tagged and a link to your AIFD profile. Who it's for: - Pro members on a yearly plan - Winners at festivals AIFD partners with (CLOWD so far) How to book: comment below or DM me here on Skool, and I'll send you my calendar link. @Vikrant Dubey, @Steve Tapia, @Gabriel Brien , @Nicholas Penrake , @Benjamin Berjon and @Gavin Carlton you're all in. Already started yours with me? My computer crashed last week and I lost track of where some of us were. Get back in touch and we'll pick up right where we left off. Not on a yearly plan yet? The spotlight video comes with Pro Yearly ($150/yr). Upgrade from your AIFD profile and I'll book you in.
