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

Remote, USA Full-time Posted 2025-04-18

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.

Bonus:

Attached is a sample clip, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V19069MktbhPJUrwZA8hsq8E_lkX2lhf/view?usp=sharing, to give you a clear idea of the style we?re aiming for. Both male and female presenters are welcome to apply.

We?re excited to find someone who?s not just a freelancer?but a partner for the long haul. Let?s see if we?re a match.
