Filmmaker (Paid Video Project)

About the Role

We are seeking filmmakers and videographers for a paid freelance project to shoot paired, real-camera videos for AI model training. This is flexible, paid freelance work for individuals who can shoot to a precise technical standard.

What to Expect

• Pay: Up to $17 per submission (approximately 1–1.5 hours of work).
• Work Type: Fully remote and flexible schedule.

What You'll Do

Shoot short, raw video sets (10-30 seconds each) in one of two formats:

• Multiple Angles: Use two or more cameras simultaneously to record one continuous performance (10–30 seconds) from clearly different angles. Do not combine angles into one video. No split-screens, no cuts between angles.
• Action Change: Place the camera on a locked tripod and record the same scene twice (10–30 seconds each), with the subject performing a different continuous action in each take. The camera, framing, lighting, and background must be identical in both takes. Only the action changes.

Editing Rules

• All footage must be raw and unedited.
• The only adjustment allowed is trimming or slipping clips to align and match length.
• No warping, time-stretching, or frame blending.

Technical Requirements

Submissions that miss any of these cannot be accepted:

• Resolution: Exactly 1920x1080 (landscape) or 1080x1920 (portrait), not upscaled.
• Codec: H.264, 30 Mbps, 30 fps.
• Audio: Natural sound from the scene on every file, with no added music, voiceover, or spoken counts.
• Motion: Visible motion the whole way through, with no frozen or near-still moments.
• Lighting: Good lighting and neutral white balance. For action change sets, exposure must stay locked across both takes.
• Alignment: All files in a set must line up frame-for-frame at the start, middle, and end.

Who We're Looking For

• Filmmakers and videographers with hands-on shooting experience.
• Comfort trimming and aligning footage in editing software.
• Original footage only, shot by you.
• No minors on camera.
