Mohammed Ashim has been cutting hair and trimming beards for four years in Bengaluru. But recently the 22-year old has been strapping a camera to his head to record his work. The camera only records his hands and fingers – his client’s faces are blurred out.
The routine is simple, but you have to be disciplined about how you move. The operations team taught me that my hands must stay cleanly inside the frame, the lighting must be sharp, and I can’t tilt my head too abruptly while working.
He wears the camera for five or six hours a day. It’s good money, but honestly, doing something this futuristic is what keeps me excited. I never imagined my razor techniques would be useful to a global tech company,” says Ashim.
He is one of hundreds of thousands of workers worldwide paid to record their activities. Ashim’s footage is collected by a local company, which might have hundreds of people filming their work.
