Hey everyone,
Weβre now opening applications to Data Capture Study 1: Household First-Person View β Daily Routines.
This project is focused on capturing authentic, unscripted, first-person video of everyday household activities using the Insta360 X5 head-mounted camera.
-> Study One
and to apply and sign our subcontractor agreement:
What We Need
Weβre looking for providers who can capture approximately 60-minute continuous video clips of normal βday in the lifeβ household activities.
These should feel natural and unscripted β not staged or overly polished. The goal is to capture real daily routines as they would normally happen.
Examples include:
π³ Kitchen routines
π§Ή Household cleaning and organization
πͺ΄ Indoor plant care
π» Leisure, technology, and home office activities
π¨ Indoor art and creativity
π¨βπ©βπ§ Group/family routines with proper consent
Required Camera Setup
Youβll need an Insta360 X5 with a head-mounted setup using an Easy Clip or hat clip.
Required settings include:
- Freeframe mode
- Single-lens
- 4K resolution
- 30 FPS
- MaxView 170Β° FOV
- Standard filter
- Auto white balance
- Horizon Lock off
Donβt Let the Gear Stop You
If you donβt already have the Insta360 X5, this may be a good opportunity to rent one, borrow one, or buy one temporarily on a payment plan while this project is active.
If you donβt have the head strap or hat clip mentioned in the scope of work, I would buy one right away. Itβs less than $10 in many cases, and it can unlock this project for you.
This is one of those opportunities where being ready early matters.
Priority Work Assignment
Weβre going to start with 200 videos and ramp up from there over the coming weeks.
In your email, include:
- Confirmation that you have or are getting the required head strap / head mount
- Confirmation that you have access to an Insta360 X5 or are planning to get one
- Your quote per hour for simple at-home βday in the lifeβ routines
- Comment below here when you have sent it over so we can check.
The people who email us with this information will be the first group we send work to.
