Engaging News Presenter for YouTube-Style Explainer Videos (U.S. & Global Focus) - Contract to Hire

We’re looking for a talented and engaging on-camera presenter, spokesperson, or UGC actor with fluent, neutral or American English pronunciation to be the face of our documentary-style and global news explainer videos. This is a long-term collaboration for the right person, with scripts ranging from a few hundred words to full-length narrations depending on the topic. What You’ll Be Doing: - Present news-style videos on green screen (we’ll add footage in post). - Bring real-world events and global issues to life using a natural, conversational tone. - Ask questions and explain topics as a relatable presenter would; think “approachable reporter”, not robotic voiceover. - Use facial expressions, varied tonalities, and hand gestures to keep the viewer engaged. - Dress casually, maintain a well-groomed appearance, and deliver in a professional but accessible way. Topics You'll Cover: - Global current events - Geopolitical trends - U.S. politics and international relations (we give priority to topics related to the United States, given its global relevance) You Are: - Comfortable on camera and experienced in UGC, journalism, or news-style presentation - Passionate about global affairs, politics, or storytelling - Able to record in front of a green screen (or have a simple home studio setup) - Reliable, collaborative, and interested in long-term work How to Apply: Start your message with the words “long haul” to show you’ve read the brief. Then tell us why you’re a great fit for this project, i.e. what’s your motivation and interest in the topics we cover? Do share your portfolio and a sample video showcasing your presenter style. If shortlisted, we’ll schedule a brief video call to get to know each other and ensure we’re a good match.
