Job description

Need a mid-level screenwriter for an upcoming corporate video, paid $150-300/day for about 3 weeks of work, based in Los Angeles. We are an independent production company working on a short form corporate piece for a tech client. The tone is professional and informative, but we want to inject some creative storytelling to make it genuinely engaging, not just dry product specs. It's a great opportunity to craft a narrative that elevates a standard corporate message into something memorable. We're looking for someone to develop a compelling script from outline to final draft, working closely with our producer and director. Responsibilities include concept development, drafting multiple script versions based on feedback, and ensuring the final script aligns with the client's messaging and brand guidelines. We need someone who has experience writing for corporate or commercial content, understands how to distill complex information into concise, impactful dialogue and visuals, and can deliver on tight deadlines. Please share your reel or portfolio showcasing relevant script samples. Our target shoot dates are currently slated for the second week of December 2026, with prep starting in the last week of November 2026. This role is primarily remote, but occasional in-person meetings in LA will be required. We'll provide all necessary creative briefs and client assets.
