Job description

Record a set of short videos at home with your iPhone and TV, and get $70.

One-time task. $70 for one approved task, done once. About 1 to 1.5 hours, plus upload time on Wi-Fi.

Help train AI for smart TVs. You'll film a short video of your face, then a series of short videos in your living room while a set clip plays on your TV. Step-by-step instructions on YouTube show you exactly what to do, and you upload everything through the Mindrift app.

Mindrift connects people with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based.

What this opportunity involves

We're looking for US-based participants to record a short set of videos at home for a smart TV AI project. There is no prior experience required: you follow the video instructions and record with your own iPhone. On this project, participants will:

•Record a short video of their face;

•Record a series of short videos in their living room while a set clip plays on the TV, following the step-by-step YouTube instructions (sitting on the couch, moving in front of the TV, using a few everyday items);

•Set up the phone on a tripod or phone holder and keep the whole setup within about 10 ft of the TV;

•Upload all recordings through the Mindrift app over Wi-Fi.

It's a one-time task: once your recordings are approved, you're done and you get paid.

What we look for

This opportunity is a good fit for anyone in the US with a recent iPhone Pro and a living room with a TV who is looking for a quick, paid, one-time task. You will need:

•To be 18+, living in the US, and speak English or Spanish;

•An iPhone 14 Pro or newer Pro / Pro Max model with 256 GB or more and at least 70 GB free. Other phones can't record this task;

•A living room with a TV, a couch with 3+ seats facing it, and about 10 ft of open space. You need to be alone in the room while recording;

•A tripod or phone holder, a chair, glasses, a baseball cap and a blanket;

•A Wi-Fi connection for the upload.

This opportunity is not open to residents of Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, Washington or Maryland.
