Narrator - Videos for Data Collection Project, AI training

About the Client: Our client is involved in an innovative data-collection project, which focuses on creating video datasets for training AI models. These AI models are designed to learn from first-person (POV) video footage. The captured videos depict real people involved in hands-on tasks with a mounted phone on their head or chest, paired with spoken narration. The purpose is to enable the model to connect visual inputs (objects, hands, actions) with audio descriptions. Sub-areas for the videos include: Home & Daily Tasks: cleaning, laundry (sorting, folding), organizing a closet, house tours, pet care, packing luggage, loading appliances / dishwashing. Repairs & DIY: home repair, gardening / farming, furniture assembly, woodworking, plumbing, electrical work, bicycle maintenance, soldering electronics. Textile & Craft Arts: sewing, knitting, crocheting, using a loom, leathercrafting, bookbinding, crafting jewelry, pottery / ceramics. Professional Trades & Industrial: automotive repair / maintenance, warehousing / logistics, construction / woodworking, laboratory work, operating heavy machinery controls, assembly-line packaging. Hobbies & Arts: art – drawing, ceramics, painting, playing instruments, model building, outdoor survival / camping, calligraphy. Technology & Computing: using computers or devices (e.g. audio mixers), gaming, product demos, VR / AR interaction, 3D printer setup / maintenance. Outdoors & Activity: city tours, shopping, navigating public transit. Personal Care: haircut, applying makeup, detailed grooming routines. Specialized & Professional: medical procedures, first aid training, professional barista workflows, culinary chef / knife work, lab protocols (pipetting, titrations). About the Role - Narrator: Watches the POV video and describes the scene and task in first person, in English, as if explaining it to a model that can't see. Fluency and describing ability matter most; knowing the activity is not required. Deliverable: — audio narration synced to the video, recorded after the footage. Language: — English; fluency is criterion #1. Density: — at least 25 words/min on average, no long silences. Content: — 90%+ about the setting or task steps. Required Skills: — English fluency. — Ability to narrate pre-recorded videos. — All details on the Acceptance Criteria will be shared prior to the work. Rules: — No personal data on video — third-party faces, screens, documents, plates, addresses, mirror reflections. — 100% human narration — no TTS or synthetic voice. Engagement Details: Compensation model: Hourly paid, considering the total number of hours for approved videos. Commitment Type: Flexible hours based on video submissions. Duration: Ongoing, with earnings based on the number of approved videos. Location: Remote, with flexible overlap with client's timezone. Start Date: Immediate start upon approval of test video.
