This autumn Sustainalists got a whole lot better. Get found where you are, get briefs instead of cold emails, keep 100% of your fee – and work for clients on the other side of the world. Let them direct the interview you film remotely.

This autumn we made Sustainalists a whole lot better. Here is what is new for you as a freelancer.
Newsrooms and production companies search Sustainalists by city. They see who is on location, who is in the area and who is further away – so when a story happens near you, you are the one they find.
Your city also has its own page to share: sustainalists.com/find/your-city
Clients send you a brief: what, where, when and in what format. A text message to your phone can now tell you when a message arrives. Questions? Ask them in the chat before you quote. Then you answer with your price – and you decide which jobs you take.
Listing is free. You keep everything you quote; our fee, which covers the running of this site, is added on the client's side. Delivery and payment run on the platform, so you don't need to chase anyone by email.
Remotize is new this autumn and built into Sustainalists. It lets a journalist from anywhere in the world direct an interview that you film on location: they see your camera picture live, ask the interviewee their questions over talkback and send you cues while you film.
Live transcription, with optional live translation, means the journalist can follow every answer – even in a language they don't speak. They read it subtitled as it is spoken.
For you it is simple: you open a link in your browser, nothing to install, and it costs you nothing – the client pays for it.
Working with a client who isn't on Sustainalists, or doesn't have the Impact plan? They can book Remotize on its own at remotize.tv.
We started to translate the site into 26 languages so it's more accessible around the world.
