COMPANY/PUBLICATION: UNDISCLOSED

I'm looking to hire a writer to write scripts for a series of YouTube video essays, including necessary research. Topics are based on video games and advertising (and often a mix of the two). I'm looking for someone who can write with an engaging and entertaining tone that will translate well into voice over.

BUDGET

$400 per script.

Ideally each script will yield a 10-20min video. I know video length isn't 1:1 with script length, but I'm estimating about 1,500 - 3,000 words per script, or an average of 2250 words.

Looking to start with 10-20 scripts.

DETAILS

This is a remote contract gig
English must be a primary language as scripts need to be written in English
Must be able to tell a good story, hook people in, create a mystery where there isn't one, etc.
Prefer working with one person to keep a consistent "voice" across videos, but open to dividing the work across multiple writers if it makes sense
Payments can be made by ACH/Wire (preferred) or PayPal. Prefer to make payments on a monthly or bimonthly basis (you would invoice for any completed scripts).

EXAMPLES

Here are some video scripts I like:
