Entry Screenwriter, Commercial Ad (Remote OK)
Seeking an entry-level screenwriter for a unique commercial project promoting a new, eco-friendly consumer product. This spot aims for a lighthearted, humorous tone, blending quick cuts with engaging, relatable scenarios. It's a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to build their commercial portfolio and see their writing come to life in a fun, impactful way. We're looking for fresh ideas and a knack for concise storytelling. Key responsibilities include brainstorming concepts with the director, developing a compelling 30-second script, and delivering revisions based on feedback. While the core script will be 30 seconds, we'll need variations for 15-second and 60-second cuts, along with potential social media snippets. We need someone who can write punchy dialogue and vivid scene descriptions that translate well to screen. No specific gear is needed for writing, but strong communication skills and reliability are a must. Please submit a brief cover letter explaining your interest and attach 2-3 short writing samples (commercials, short film scripts, or creative prose that demonstrates your voice) to showcase your storytelling ability. Previous commercial writing is a plus, but not required. This is a deferred compensation project with a backend percentage, offering a chance to be part of an independent production with potential for future collaboration. The writing phase will span approximately 3 weeks, beginning in November 2026. The production will provide clear creative direction and prompt feedback. We are open to remote work for the right candidate. Please aim to submit your materials by November 30, 2026.
