Movie & TV News Writer – $15.66 – $26.93 Per Hour
Note: We will not review incomplete applications. To be considered: include your resume and/or cover letter – plus list five current movies/TV shows you believe we should be covering (and why).
Do you love geeky movies and TV? Have a passion for writing? Want to reach millions of readers every month? We are looking for strong writers to join our movie and TV news team. This is a fully remote freelance position that allows for flexible scheduling and opportunities in development and professional advancement.
You Will:
- Compose engaging news articles – with a focus on why the news matters – not just what happened.
- Work with editors to pitch and develop unique perspectives in order to provide timely coverage of news as it happens.
- Produce clean copy that is easy to edit and engaging.
- Bring your knowledge of the movie and TV industry to our team to fill gaps in our coverage needs while contributing your own expertise.
- Follow editorial guidelines and adapt writing style to site voice (with plenty of room for personal flourishes) as needed.
- Maintain professional standards of communication within our organization.
You Have:
- Prior publishing experience in journalism or other professional writing fields (technical and/or creative).
- A portfolio of past work for us to review.
- Degree and/or certification in English-related education is a benefit but not mandatory.
- Ideas you’d love to find a home for as well as an appreciation for taking on and owning new interests as they emerge.
Evening and weekend availability is a huge boon in this position, but is not required. Those able to work during these timeframes will more often be able to do so at their own pace.
