CREATIVE CONTENT STRATEGIST (YOUTUBE & AI) – GAMING EXPERT IN TRAINING

ABOUT THE ROLE

I am NOT looking for a Virtual Assistant.

I am looking for a Creative Content Strategist who will progressively take over my YouTube creative workflow, so I can focus on higher-value strategy and growth.

This role is for someone smart, curious, AI-native, and genuinely interested in gaming and technology — someone who enjoys learning complex niches and becoming very good at them.

The niche is SIM RACING (racing simulators, hardware, PS5/PC compatibility, product reviews).

This is a part-time role (20 hours per week) with a long-term perspective and potential to grow as the channel scales.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Content & Niche Mastery (Core Responsibility)
• Learn the Sim Racing ecosystem (brands, hardware, compatibility, trends)
• Watch and analyze top Sim Racing creators (Boosted Media, Jimmy Broadbent, Dan Suzuki, etc.)
• Understand WHY certain videos perform well
• Suggest video ideas based on real audience interest

You do NOT need to be an expert on Day 1.
You DO need to enjoy learning technical topics deeply.

AI-Assisted Scriptwriting

• Use advanced AI models (access provided)
• Generate scripts with AI

Rewrite them to:

• sound human
• be technically accurate
• have strong hooks and retention

Apply copywriting and storytelling principles

Thumbnail Strategy (Execution or Direction)

Generate thumbnail concepts using AI

Either:

• do light Photoshop edits yourself
• OR write very clear instructions for a professional thumbnail designer

Understand YouTube CTR logic (contrast, clarity, simplicity)

Team Communication

• Communicate clearly with editors and designers
• Anticipate problems instead of reacting to them
• Ask smart questions only when necessary

TOOLS & WORKFLOW

• AI access provided (OpenRouter – multiple models)
• Image generation access provided
• No paid subscriptions required on your side (ChatGPT Plus is a plus)
• You will be trained on my exact workflow

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

You are:

• Passionate about gaming and tech
• Comfortable learning by yourself
• Very good at thinking, not just executing
• Curious, analytical, detail-oriented
• Able to explain complex things simply
• Comfortable using AI as a tool, not a crutch

You are NOT:

• A passive VA waiting for instructions
• Someone who copy-pastes AI output
• Someone who avoids learning technical subjects

HOW TO APPLY – READ CAREFULLY

Applications that do NOT follow ALL steps below will be ignored.

STEP 1 – KEYWORD FILTER

Start your application with this word:

CES

STEP 2 – VIDEO INTRODUCTION (MANDATORY)

Attach a 2–3 minute video (Loom, Google Drive, or unlisted YouTube).

In the video, answer ALL of the following:

• Who are you?
• What games or tech topics do you enjoy?
• Tell me about ONE project (YouTube, content, gaming, AI, or similar) where you had real responsibility, and what YOU personally handled
• A time when you had to learn something complex quickly
• Why you believe you are a strong candidate for this role
• Why I can trust you with my YouTube channel’s creative work

Be natural. Do NOT read a script.

STEP 3 – THINKING & ANALYSIS TEST

• Find a Sim Racing YouTube video with 200k+ views
• Share the link
• Answer briefly:

Why the HOOK works
Why the THUMBNAIL makes people click

STEP 4 – RESEARCH, COPY & STRATEGY TEST

A. REAL-TIME RESEARCH (CES 2026)

The CES 2026 is happening RIGHT NOW.

Find ONE new Sim Racing product announced THIS WEEK.

Include:

• Product name and brand
• Source link (official post, press release, or reputable media)
• One key spec or feature (verifiable)
• Why it matters for sim racers (2–3 sentences)
• One risk or unknown (price, compatibility, availability, etc.)

B. COPYWRITING

Write a 3-sentence hook for this video title:

Best F1 Wheels for PS5 in 2026 (Don’t Buy the Wrong One)

Guidelines:

• Assume the viewer already knows what sim racing is
• Focus on decision-making, not definitions
• Include a clear promise and a subtle warning
• Must sound human (no generic AI tone)

C. PROMPTING / CREATIVE DIRECTION

Provide a detailed prompt or set of instructions you would give to:

an AI image generator OR a professional thumbnail designer

For a video titled:

Best F1 Wheels for PS5 in 2026

Your instructions should clearly explain:

• the main visual idea
• the emotion you want the viewer to feel
• the key elements to include or avoid
• how the thumbnail should communicate comparison and PS5 relevance
• common visual mistakes to avoid (wrong wheel shapes, clutter, confusion, etc.)

D. VIDEO IDEA – PERFORMANCE THINKING

Propose ONE video idea that you genuinely believe could perform very well.

Include:

• Working title
• Target audience (who exactly is this for?)
• Why this video would get clicks (CTR logic)
• Why people would keep watching (retention logic)

Quality of reasoning matters more than originality.
