Scriptwriter – Scriptwriter – True Crime/bodycam
I’m looking for an experienced YouTube script writer to help create scripts for my YouTube channel. The style will be modeled after Midwest Safety, so I need someone who understands dramatic, footage-based storytelling with strong pacing, setup, tension, and payoff.
You will be responsible for watching provided footage, finding the strongest story within it, and turning it into an engaging YouTube script that keeps viewers watching from beginning to end.
This will be ongoing work, with around 2–4 scripts needed per week. I’m looking for someone who can work quickly, communicate clearly, and deliver scripts on time.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate has experience writing YouTube scripts in this niche or a similar documentary/storytelling style. You should understand how to build suspense, create strong hooks, structure a story from raw footage, and write in a way that feels natural, engaging, and made for audience retention.
You must be comfortable reviewing footage, identifying the key moments, and creating a clear story around them. Experience with Midwest Safety-style content or similar channels is strongly preferred.
