Remote Script Writer wanted | $90 to $110 per hour

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: TANGIBLE

We are looking for an experienced writer that can create scripts for short-form product marketing videos. Scripts are produced after a period of research and learning done by the writers and creative strategists; to understand the pain points, solutions, and benefits of the product we're developing scripts for before writing begins. This process is often collaborative, with both client and internal project team workshops. Once scripts are complete, writers participate in storyboarding sessions to develop the creative execution strategy for the videos as well.

• Willing to provide and receive constructive criticism and make changes based on feedback
• Ability to keep sensitive client and agency information confidential at all times
• Proficiency with Google Docs, comfort with adopting use of other collaborative software e.g. Figma
