Writers wanted (entertainment, games, books, etc.) | $400 to $500 per script

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: WISECRACK

Reminder that if you a) have video essay writing experience and/or b) an academic background and are interested in contributing to the channel - HIT US UP. We're always looking for writers and researchers. But please don't hit us up if you haven't written video essays before.

Get in touch if you have experience writing video essays, can hold your own as a researcher, and would love to hear Michael O'Neill Burns butcher your carefully written work.

Each script is different but they’re usually around 3,000 words. Freelance range for first script somewhere in $400-500 territory. Only a good fit for folks with previous video essay experience.

APPLICATION CHECKLIST: Unless otherwise stated, include (1) a note explaining how you meet the requirements or why you are the right fit for the job; (2) a one-paragraph summary of your relevant experience, credentials and publication credits; and (3) links to your strongest work or portfolio, and online profile. 

ABOUT WISECRACK: Wisecrack is creating thoughtful, unpretentious videos and podcasts exploring movies, anime, TV shows, video games, books, philosophy, and more. We are a collective of comedians, academics, filmmakers, and artists who are endlessly curious about the world around us. We think of ourselves as the brand for the curious. We’re the ‘Thinking Person’s’ brand. We believe big ideas can come from the most unusual and unexpected places—and we’re willing to do the hard work to uncover meaningful, well-researched insights from the things we love and consume everyday.
