Actor Needed to Recite Emotional Poem on Camera (1–2 min video)

Job ID: 40358214

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

The task is to capture a 1–2-minute, vertical-format performance of my poem about teetering on the edge of giving up until a small spark—“$250 or a simple check-in”—turns everything around. I want to feel raw urgency and hope in your voice, so lean into a powerful and intense delivery.

Please alternate your gaze: spend some lines looking straight into the lens, then shift slightly off to the side for contrast. Layer the exact words of the poem on screen as a tasteful text overlay; no other visual effects are needed. Clean, well-lit HD footage (1080p or better) and crisp audio are essential. A spoken-word or storytelling rhythm will match the material best.

If you’re comfortable, light background music and a second take or angle would be a welcome bonus, but the core requirement is a single, emotionally truthful take that hits the viewer right in the chest.
