The listings name the equipment you need, such as a supported phone model or a 360-degree camera, and some are limited to named regions or states. Photo and annotation roles ask for photography or annotation experience in some cases. Check each listing for its own requirements.
What you may be asked to share
Some roles involve filming your home or workplace or photographing yourself. Read what a listing asks you to share, record or connect before you start, and decline anything you are not comfortable with.
