Paid Acting Audition: AI Research Video Project (5–10 Minutes)

Project Type: Paid Audition with Potential for Ongoing Work Location: US Remote Video Length: 5–10 minutes Roles: Individual Actors and Small Acting Groups About the Project We are looking for talented, expressive actors to participate in a paid video audition for an AI research project. The project involves recording realistic, everyday interactions between people and an AI assistant. We will provide scripts and recording guidelines, but the goal is for the conversations to feel natural, spontaneous, and authentic rather than rehearsed. We are hiring both individual actors and small groups of actors who can perform together in the same physical location. Selected actors may be invited to participate in a larger, ongoing paid production. What You'll Do Record a 5–10 minute video following a provided scenario and script. Perform as either a person interacting with an AI assistant or as the AI assistant. Deliver natural dialogue, realistic expressions, and believable physical actions. Follow basic camera positioning and recording instructions. Incorporate feedback and make adjustments as needed. Who We're Looking For Individuals with strong conversational acting and improvisation skills. Groups of 2–3 actors who can record together in the same location. Actors comfortable performing everyday situations naturally on camera. Clear spoken English and good communication skills. Access to a quiet indoor environment, smartphone or camera, and reliable internet. Acting experience is preferred but not required. Natural on-camera performance is more important than formal training. Audition Details Duration: 5–10 minutes of recorded video. Format: We provide the script, setup instructions, and acting guidelines. Location: Can be recorded in a home or similar indoor environment. Equipment: A smartphone and a basic camera is sufficient for this audition. Compensation: This is a paid audition. Please provide your proposed fixed price. Feedback: Selected participants may be asked to incorporate feedback into subsequent paid recordings. How to Apply Please include the following in your proposal: Individual or Group: Are you applying individually or as a group? Do you have at least one other person you can act and record with in the same physical location? If so, please mention how many people are available to participate with you. Introduction: Briefly describe your acting experience. Sample Video: Share an acting reel, self-tape, or short example of natural conversational acting. Recording Setup: Confirm that you have access to a quiet indoor space and a smartphone or camera. Availability: When could you complete the audition? Pricing: Your proposed fixed price for a 5–10 minute audition recording. What Happens Next We will review applications and select candidates for the paid audition. Shortlisted actors will receive a script, recording instructions, and submission details. Successful candidates may be invited to participate in a larger project involving multiple recording sessions. Our priority is natural, believable interaction. We are not looking for polished commercials or theatrical performances. We want conversations that feel like real people interacting in everyday situations.
