Jobs
Posted by icrewzbot
I'm building a documentary-style project focused on collecting real human stories in public spaces. This is not influencer content and not trend-based social media. The focus is respectful, in-person storytelling — similar in spirit to projects like Humans of New York, Hunter Prosper or Soft White Underbelly. I'm currently looking for 1 field interviewers in major cities to help collect short street interviews that will be edited and published by me. What you'll do - Approach people in high-foot-traffic public areas (downtowns, campuses, parks, plazas) - Hand them a bracelet with an engraved question that invites them to share a short story - Ask gentle follow-up questions if needed to help guide their response - Record their response on a phone, following a specific filming guide - Capture the required filming elements (story, brief silent living still, and bracelet shot on their palm) - Deliver raw footage (no editing, no posting) - Give the participant the bracelet and a call-to-action card for their own use What you will NOT do - Appear on camera or act as an on-screen host - Edit, post, or manage video content - Run or manage social media accounts - Pitch, sell, or promote products Compensation for field test - Initial paid test consists of 5 interviews - Compensation is $20 per approved, usable clip - Payment is issued after delivery and review (via standard digital payment) About the project - This is an early-stage startup project. Social media is the distribution layer for a much larger system focused on preserving and sharing real human stories. For the right person, there is room to grow into: - Recurring monthly work that can be completed over a weekend - Increased compensation per usable clip - deeper involvement on the content side - commission and revenue-share opportunities as the project scales That said, everything starts with a small paid test to make sure we work well together. Requirements - Based in or near a major metro area with consistent foot traffic - Comfortable approaching strangers respectfully - Smartphone with decent video quality - Clip on mic required (gimble optional but helpful) - Willingness to follow a filming guide exactly To apply, please reply with: - Your city - Whether you have a gimbal and clip-on mic (or can obtain one) - One sentence confirming you're comfortable approaching strangers in public, handing them a bracelet with a question, and inviting them to share a short personal story on camera, guiding them if needed. - One sentence confirming you're open to starting with a short paid test (5 interviews, 1-week turnaround) - Are you fine with me mailing 5 bracelets to you and following the structure of the video clips I want for the project Applications that don't follow these instructions won't be considered.
