The Guidelines
The more authentic, the better. Imperfections are the point.
Location
Outdoors. Real life. Natural light.
Do this
- Film outside whenever possible. Sunlight beats any setup
- Parking lot before/after a shift
- Sidewalk near the job site
- Park, courtyard, or open area nearby
- Trucks, equipment, city streets in the background
Skip this
- Offices, blank walls, dark interiors
- Break rooms
- Anything that looks staged or set up
“I just stepped outside for a minute and hit record.”
Movement = authenticity
Don't stand still and talk at the camera.
Do this
- Walking somewhere
- Heading to or from a job
- Grabbing something from your truck
- Light, natural motion
Skip this
- Frozen in place
- Tripod-style locked shots
“Even small motion works. The key is not frozen in place.”
Point of view
Selfie-style only. Vertical video.
Do this
- Selfie-style recording only
- Casual eye contact, not 'presenter mode'
- Vertical (social-ready)
- Embrace imperfections: slight shake, looking away, natural pauses
Skip this
- Horizontal video
- Tripod or gimbal setups
- Stiff, posed framing
“I'm sending this to a friend, not filming a commercial.”
How to talk
Friend-to-friend. Not corporate.
Do this
- Talk like you're convincing a friend to work here
- Casual, honest, conversational
- Mess up a sentence? Keep going. That's the gold
Skip this
- Scripts or memorized lines
- Buzzwords or 'ad voice'
- Reading from notes
“If you sound like a brochure, start over.”
What to talk about
Pick whatever feels real. You don't have to hit it all.
Do this
- Why you actually like working here
- What surprised you (in a good way)
- How the company treats people
- Why it beats other places you've worked
- Who this job is perfect for
- Why you've stayed / plan to stay
Skip this
- Reading anything
- Overly polished language
- Listing benefits like a brochure
“They don't need to hit everything. Just what feels real.”
Gear & appearance
Real beats perfect.
Do this
- Partial gear or casual workwear
- “On the way to work” or “just finished” look
- Full gear is fine if it feels natural for the moment
Skip this
- Photoshoot energy
- Full uniform staged for the camera
“If it feels like a photoshoot, it's too much.”
Length
Authentic > perfect timing.
Do this
- Aim for 30–60 seconds
- If it runs long but feels good, that's okay
Skip this
- 5-minute monologues
- Two-second clips
“Authenticity wins every time.”
Pro Tip
“Think of it like FaceTiming a friend who needs a better job.”
