This is one of the more unusual categories on the board. Some listings ask you to shoot original footage on specific hardware, naming cameras like the Insta360, DJI Osmo, and GoPro MAX in the listing itself.
What the listings actually pay
Across 28 live listings in this category that publish a rate, the median top-of-range is $20 an hour, reaching $120 at the top. Rates here are low compared with the credentialed categories, and that is worth being clear about. What the category offers instead is that it wants a skill rather than a qualification.

What moves your rate
Every listing below links to the full role with its own requirements and application link. Rates shown are what the listing itself advertises, and listings without a published rate are left out rather than estimated.
How to apply
Every role above links to its own page with the full requirements and a direct application link. Applications are completed on the hiring platform and typically take a few minutes, with a short skills assessment in place of an interview.
Two things are worth doing before you apply. Check whether the role accepts applicants from your country using the eligibility checker, and run the advertised rate through the take-home calculator, because this is contract work and the headline rate is before self-employment tax.
Frequently asked questions
What do AI jobs for video creators and vloggers pay?
Across 28 live listings in this category with published rates, the median top-of-range is $20 an hour and the highest currently reaches $120.
What does video work for AI involve?
Some listings ask you to capture original footage to specification, often on named 360 or action camera hardware. Others involve reviewing and describing video content.
Do I need my own equipment?
For the capture listings, yes, and they usually name the specific cameras. Review-based listings need nothing beyond a computer.
Is this contract or employment?
Nearly all of it is contract work, paid hourly for approved hours. That means no benefits and you handle your own taxes, which our take-home calculator accounts for.
Can I do this alongside a full-time job?
Yes, and most people do. The work is asynchronous with no set shifts, so it fits into evenings and weekends without a scheduling conflict.
