Step 1 of 4 β€” Register

Register to unlock the footage. 20 seconds.

Registering does one thing: it unlocks the download links for the raw footage, b-roll and example edits. It is not your application β€” your finished edit is. Register, download the files, make your edit, then come back and submit it below.

πŸ”“ Footage unlocked β€” here's your task

  1. Download the Raw Clips and B-Roll (buttons below)
  2. Pick ONE script from the list further down this page
  3. Cut a 9:16 ad β€” captions, graded from Apple Log, hook in the first 3 seconds
  4. Upload your edit (Drive / Dropbox / unlisted YouTube) and submit the link in the form at the bottom
The Brief

Pick one script. Cut one finished ad.

Below are ten real ad scripts we filmed with the owner on camera β€” talking-head takes, alternate hooks, plus a full b-roll library. Your job: choose whichever script you think you can make sing, and cut it into a finished, ready-to-run Meta ad. That finished edit is your entire application.

1

Register

Name, email, country. That's all it does β€” it unlocks the Google Drive links for the footage. Registering is not an entry.

2

Download the footage

Raw talking-head takes of every script (with alternate hooks) plus the full b-roll library. All Apple Log.

3

Pick ONE script & cut the ad

Choose one of the ten scripts below and edit it into a finished 9:16 Meta ad β€” captions on, hook in the first 3 seconds, graded.

4

Submit your edit

Upload it anywhere watchable (Drive, Dropbox, unlisted YouTube) and paste the link in the form with your details and monthly rate. This is the application.

🎨

Important: all raw footage is shot in Apple Log

The talking-head clips and b-roll are ungraded Apple Log. Colour grading is deliberately part of this test β€” we want to see you take flat Log footage to a clean, punchy, true-to-brand grade (our blues are #0084FF territory). Use a LUT as a starting point or grade by hand, your call. If your entry ships ungraded Log, it won't be considered.

The bar we're aiming for: @realjacobmiller

Before you touch the timeline, spend ten minutes on Jacob Miller's Instagram. That's the calibre of output we're hiring for β€” the pacing, the caption treatment, the grade, the way every cut earns its place. We're looking for someone who can produce work at that level, consistently. If his feed excites you rather than intimidates you, you're who this contest is for.

Step 2 β€” Download the Footage

Everything you need, in three folders.

All three folders are on Google Drive. Register above to unlock the links β€” then download what you need. You don't have to use every clip, just what your edit calls for.

The Standard

This is the level. Watch these first.

Ten reference edits from the detailing niche β€” the pacing, captions, grade and energy we're hiring for. Tap any to watch, then beat them with our footage.

Step 3 β€” Pick Your Script

Ten scripts. Pick your weapon.

Each ad targets a specific buyer. Expand one for the full teleprompter script and what the edit needs to do.

How You'll Be Judged

What a winning entry looks like.

The grade

Log handled properly. Skin tones right, brand blues popping, blacks clean. This is the first filter.

The hook

Strongest hook take chosen, cut tight, text treatment that stops a thumb in the first 3 seconds.

Pacing & b-roll

The edit breathes with the script β€” b-roll matched to what's being said, no dead air, no filler.

Captions

Accurate, styled, readable on a phone in sunlight. Sloppy captions kill ads.

Sound

Dialogue clean and level, music that supports rather than fights, tasteful SFX if any.

Judgement

The choices you make β€” what to cut, what to keep, which take to use. We're hiring an editor, not a button-pusher.

Every entry gets watched. The winner is paid US$70 for their edit and gets first shot at the full-time role β€” we'll shortlist the strongest, jump on a quick call, and make the offer. Strong runners-up go on our paid freelance list.

Step 4 β€” Submit Your Edit

Submit your edit.

This form is for finished edits only. Your edit link is the first field for a reason β€” everything else is just contact details.

⚠️ Your entry is only judged once we have your edit. Not finished yet? Submit your details now and send the edit later β€” DM it to @poshwashdetail on Instagram, or come back here and add your link (use the same email).
Google Drive, Dropbox or unlisted YouTube β€” viewable by anyone. Not finished yet? Leave it empty β€” you can DM it to @poshwashdetail on Instagram or come back here and add it later.
Full-time monthly rate in US dollars. Be honest β€” we'd rather pay fairly than haggle.
