About Ottawood Film GroupOttawood Film Group is a fast-growing vertical short drama production company based in Richmond Hill, Ontario. We create episodic mobile-first content built for 9:16 — hook-driven stories told in high-impact episodes, distributed across today's leading streaming platforms.

The RoleWe're looking for a Junior Video Editor and AI Generative Creator to join our post-production team full-time on-site. This is an even-split role: half your time will be hands-on editing of episodic footage, and the other half will be dedicated to AI-generated content creation using tools like Runway, Kling, and similar platforms. You'll work directly alongside our Post-Production Manager in a fast-turnaround environment, contributing to multiple productions simultaneously.

- Generate and refine AI video and image content using tools such as Runway, Kling, Seeddance, and similar platforms for use in production assets, promos, and visual development
- Collaborate closely with the Post-Production Manager and creative team on dailies review, shot selects, and assembly cuts
- Prepare and deliver final exports to platform delivery specifications, including caption integration and quality control
- Support the development of AI-generated character visuals, pitch materials, and promotional content
- Contribute to building and maintaining efficient post-production workflows as the team scales
- Stay current with emerging AI video generation tools and bring new techniques to the team
