3 Talking-Head UGC Videos (45 sec) for a Vacation Rental Brand's Ads

We're a marketing agency hiring on-camera talent for three short talking-head videos for a vacation rental management company. They will run as Facebook and Instagram ads aimed at vacation home owners, and we'll test them against each other. What you'll record - 3 scripts of about 45 seconds each (around 100-115 words), read straight to camera in one session. We send the final scripts when you're hired. 2-3 full takes of each. - 2 to 4 alternate opening lines per script, one sentence each, 2 takes each, so we can test hooks. - Raw, unedited files, named by line and take (v1_hook1_take1, v2_body_take2). We handle editing, captions, b-roll and music. The read we want - Warm, calm and credible, like a knowledgeable friend explaining something useful. Not hype, not salesy. - Start on the first line of the script. No "Hi, I'm..." intro. - You speak as yourself. You won't be playing a homeowner or an employee of the company. - The audience is vacation home owners, mostly in their 40s to 60s. The delivery has to feel credible to them. Filming specs - Vertical 9:16, 1080x1920 minimum (4K welcome), 30fps - Framed chest-up at eye level, looking into the lens. A teleprompter is fine. - Bright natural light in a clean, well-kept home interior (living room, kitchen or bedroom that could pass for a nice vacation home) - External or lav mic, quiet room, no music, no fan or AC hum - Solid-color clothing. No visible logos, brands or other people. Budget and timeline - Fixed price: $750 for all three ($250 per video) - Delivery within 5 days of receiving the final scripts, by Google Drive or Dropbox link - One round of pickups (up to 3 lines re-read) if the client changes a line Usage and exclusivity - Full rights for our client to use the footage in paid and organic ads on Meta and other digital channels, with no time limit. You don't need to post it on your own channels. - You have not appeared in ads for another vacation rental or short-term rental management company in the last 12 months, and you won't for 6 months after delivery. Nice to have - Travel, hospitality or vacation rental content experience To apply, answer the screening questions below. Applicants who include the short read get reviewed first.
