Video Actor / Vlogger - Trustona Media (Remote)

Are you passionate about the power of visual storytelling? Do you have a creative spark that ignites when you think about capturing and crafting compelling videos? If so, then this might be the role for you!

Who We Are

At Trustona Media, we create content that people love and search engines understand, operating dozens of online publications for a variety of audiences. 

We are currently in search of a freelance video actor / vlogger to support our publications Cloudwards and Coffeeness.

Cloudwards.net is a leading online publication providing information, news, articles and interviews for cloud-based software. We reach over 1,000,000 visitors monthly and continue to grow month after month.

Coffeeness is the biggest blog about coffee and coffee machines in Germany with over half a million visitors each month. The publication is currently available in four other languages: English, Dutch, French and Spanish. 

About the Role

The primary purpose of the Video Actor / Vlogger role at Trustona Media is to produce and record videos for our various media channels. We will provide you with a script to read, and based on this you will generate raw video content for subsequent editing by our team. There may also be some additional support tasks to assist with video preparation. 

This will be a freelance contractor role and the weekly commitment can be either part-time or full-time (to be discussed at time of interview). The role is completely remote, so the candidate should have basic video recording equipment of their own and an environment that allows them to record good quality video footage. 

Our ideal candidate is someone who has prior experience dabbling with YouTube videos (you might already have your own channel). While extensive experience in photography or videography is not mandatory, you should have the basic knowledge of recording videos and using a teleprompter.  

Required Skills

• A strong passion for video creation and storytelling.

• Ability to read fluently from a teleprompter. 

• Ability to paraphrase and improvise off the given script, delivering the content in a way that flows most naturally.

• Willingness to learn camera operation and video production techniques.

• Prior experience in video creation is a plus.

• Can work within our project management and communication tools with the editorial team.

• Must be able to work in a timely manner so that content can be published on schedule.
