PROJECT OVERVIEW We are producing a 60–90 second fully AI-generated cinematic commercial dramatizing a school intruder scenario to showcase the functionality of our security device. This will be used as the anchor piece of a sales presentation to school administrators, school boards, and institutional buyers. This must be 100% AI-generated — visuals, characters, environments, sound design, and score. However, the standard is non-negotiable: this needs to look and feel like a cinematic commercial produced by a real crew. Seamless. Intentional. Emotional. Buyers in the room should not be thinking about how it was made — they should be feeling what it means. No patchwork. No obvious AI artifacts. No mismatched clips stitched together with a transition. A coherent, flowing, single-vision film. TOOLS WE EXPECT YOU TO KNOW (OR EQUIVALENT) We are not prescribing your exact workflow — we are hiring for the result. That said, the caliber of work we’re describing typically requires fluency in tools such as: • Video generation: Sora, Runway Gen-3, Kling, Luma Dream Machine, Pika 2.0, or equivalent • Image/keyframe generation: Midjourney, Flux, Stable Diffusion (for controlled scene building) • Consistency & character: tools or workflows that maintain character and environment consistency across shots (this is non-negotiable — we cannot have the same “teacher” look like a different person in every cut) • Audio & score: Suno, Udio, ElevenLabs, or equivalent for music and ambient sound • Editing & compositing: Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or After Effects for final assembly, color grade, and sound mix • Upscaling & artifact removal: Topaz Video AI or equivalent to clean and upscale final output If you have a proprietary pipeline that achieves the same result, we want to hear about it. VISUAL & CINEMATIC REQUIREMENTS This is where most AI video projects fail. We are not accepting failure. Consistency across shots: • The same characters must look like the same people across the full video • The school environment must feel like one continuous real location — same hallways, same light sources, same architectural details • No floating hands, morphing faces, extra fingers, or visual glitches in the final cut Cinematic look: • Shot to feel like a real camera was used — natural depth of field, realistic motion blur, proper film grain if any • Lighting should look practical and environmental — not AI-default “glowing everything” • Color grade should be intentional: warm and normal at open, cold and urgent during the threat, returning to warmth at resolution Pacing & editing: • Cuts should feel editorial — not random clip assembly WHAT WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING • AI clips that obviously don’t match each other in lighting, style, or character appearance • Generic AI aesthetic — that flat, overlit, slightly-too-perfect look that screams “this is fake” • Stock-style scenes with no narrative connection • Graphic depictions of violence or anything sensationalizing school tragedy • Narration-over-B-roll format — this is a story, not a slideshow BUDGET & TIMELINE • Budget: Open to proposals — please submit a line-item breakdown by phase (generation, editing, sound, delivery) • Timeline: Final delivery within 14 days of contract signing TO APPLY Please submit: 1. Portfolio / reel — AI-generated narrative or commercial video ONLY. If it looks like patchwork, we will pass. 2. Your pipeline — brief explanation of which tools you use and how you solve character/environment consistency 3. Vision statement — 1–2 paragraphs on how you would approach this specific video 4. Budget estimate with line-item breakdown 5. Any questions about the device, the scenario, or the audience We are serious about quality. Apply only if your reel proves you can deliver it.

AI Video Creator Needed: Two AI Versions of the Same Person Having Conversations We are looking for an experienced AI video creator, VFX artist, or editor who can help us create a recurring video series featuring two AI versions of the same person having realistic conversations with each other. Project Overview This is not a typical avatar project. We are not looking for a talking-head avatar reading scripts. We are creating a recurring character concept where: * Character 1 is the human version * Character 2 is an AI version of the same person Both characters: * Look nearly identical * Sound nearly identical * Share the same personality foundation However: * The AI version is more advanced * Thinks faster * Recognizes patterns more quickly * Offers a more future-focused perspective The relationship should feel natural and believable. Think: Human Expert ↔ AI Expert Not: Human ↔ Robot The AI version should feel like an evolved extension of the human version, not a chatbot or machine. ⸻ What We Are Trying To Create We want viewers to feel like they are watching two versions of the same person have an intelligent conversation. Examples: * Sitting across from each other * Looking at each other naturally * Responding to each other’s comments * Natural pauses * Realistic reactions * Consistent eye lines * Professional quality editing The final result should feel like two real people having a conversation rather than two separate clips stitched together. ⸻ Technical Challenge The primary challenge is creating the illusion that: * The same person appears twice * Both versions interact naturally * Both versions maintain consistent appearance * Both versions maintain consistent voice characteristics * One version is clearly the AI counterpart We are open to different workflows and technologies. Possible approaches may include: * AI avatars * Character cloning * Compositing * Split screen * Face replacement * Motion tracking * VFX * AI video generation * Hybrid workflows We are looking for recommendations from the expert we hire. ⸻ What Success Looks Like A viewer should immediately understand: “These are two versions of the same person.” But they should also immediately recognize: “One of them is the AI version.” Without either character feeling robotic or artificial. ⸻ Ideal Experience Please apply if you have experience with: * AI video generation * AI avatar creation * Character consistency * Clone effects * VFX compositing * Face replacement * Runway * Veo * Hedra * HeyGen * Arcads * After Effects * Premiere Pro ⸻ Application Requirements Please include: 1. Examples of similar work 2. Examples of clone-style videos 3. Examples of AI avatar projects 4. How you would approach creating two versions of the same person having a conversation 5. What tools you would recommend 6. Whether you would use AI avatars, compositing, VFX, or a hybrid approach IMPORTANT: We are specifically looking for someone who can make two versions of the same person interact naturally on screen. Please explain your approach and share sampls rather than sending a generic portfolio. This is intended to become an ongoing content series, so we are looking for a long-term collaborator.
