Movie & TV News Writer
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 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 informing readers why the news matters - not just what happened.
- Work with editors to develop a unique angle or insight that will help our article stand out from the crowd.
- Produce clean copy that is easy to edit, enjoyable to read, and free of typos.
- Develop extensive knowledge of major movie and TV franchises, studios, and other industry elements - and perform research as needed to ensure articles both reinforce our authority in the space and satisfy our readers.
- 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.
- Ambition, a passion for publishing, and a desire to help us connect with readers and grow our brand.
As a news publisher that operates 24/7, availability in evenings and on weekends is a bonus - as are candidates who will be excited to hop-on and help when big news drops.
