Experience Level: Intermediate
Hi there,
I’m looking for somebody who can write book summaries for a video series I’m producing. These summaries will be scripts to be voice recorded and animated. I’m looking for somewhere between 1000 - 2000 words for most summaries (although will depend on the length of the book) and for it to take the viewer through the experience of the book rather than just being a bullet point list. The aim is to sum up the core ideas of the book (plenty will get left out, naturally) in a way that is easy to follow, uses examples and relates to the viewer.
As a rough guide, I would expect each book to take 4 hours to read (I’ll send an ebook over) and 4 hours to write the summary. So I’d be paying 8 hours rate average for each book summary. I will take into consideration the length of the book as well and adjust accordingly. The books are self-development orientated and ranging from psychology to business, relationships and well-being.
Summary requirements
- Hook the audience at the start by getting down to the core idea quickly (the context of who the author is, or why the book was written isn’t important)
- Progress through the key points of the book in a well-presented manner that is easy to follow
- Use examples when illustrating points (examples given in the book if applicable)
- (not required but ideal) keep the tone light-hearted and humorous
Thank you
Jack
