Applicants should: * Start their application with the name of their favourite dish * Include examples of previous true crime, documentary, investigative, mystery, history, or faceless YouTube content * State their quote per video Requirements: * Experience creating faceless YouTube videos * Strong research and fact-checking skills * Ability to craft compelling hooks and structured story arcs * Understanding of pacing, suspense, and viewer retention * Skilled in editing and sound design * Reliable communication and consistent delivery * Ability to follow direction while contributing creative improvements This is a long-term opportunity for a consistent collaborator or team, with ongoing work and potential growth if quality and workflow align.
