The project involves improvisation and shooting in a three-camera, green screen studio setup. We aim to create expressive avatars that can emote realistically within virtual environments.

We strongly adhere to the ethical use of AI technology, and we are fully compliant with all global data privacy acts – this is a matter we take very seriously. Your likeness and voice will be used to train an AI database to better understand and express human emotions, but your individual likeness will not be used for any commercial purposes.  
  
Responsibilities: 
– Express different emotions (verbal and nonverbal) based on provided prompts. 
– Improvise brief scenes with given emotions and dialogue. 
– Collaborate with the project team to achieve the desired results. 
– Adhere to the shooting schedule and project guidelines. 
  
Requirements: 
– Professional acting experience. 
– Ability to portray a wide range of emotions convincingly. 
– Strong improvisation skills. 
– Comfortable working in a three-camera, green screen studio setup. 
– Availability for shooting beginning in July. 
– Understanding of the project’s goals and the use of your likeness for AI research. 
  
It is important to note that the project is temporary in nature and, again, is not intended for commercial purposes. Minorities are strongly encouraged to apply. Residents of Illinois, Texas and Washington are not able to apply for the role. 
  
If you are a talented actor with the ability to express emotions authentically and are interested in contributing to innovative AI research, please apply. We value your skills and expertise in helping us to better train our technology to understand and emulate complex human emotions.
