Social Media Ad Scriptwriter
Remote • International applicants welcome • Up to $12/hour
iMagnify creates high-end social media video advertisements. We’re hiring an exceptional creative writer who understands internet culture, human behavior, and what makes people keep watching.
Bring a MrBeast-level obsession with audience attention: curiosity, stakes, pacing, escalation, and payoff. Your challenge is to apply that thinking to 15–60-second ads that entertain, build trust, and motivate the right people to take action.
You’ll work directly with our creative team to:
- Develop original ad concepts built around relatable situations, emotional insights, humor, and compelling stories.
- Write strong hooks, natural dialogue, complete scripts, and clear calls to action.
- Study successful creators and ads across different niches, then adapt what you learn into fresh ideas for our clients.
- Make scripts ready to film with visual direction, on-screen text, action beats, and practical production notes.
- Join scripting calls, contribute ideas, and sharpen drafts through feedback and revision.
- Use available audience and campaign feedback to improve future scripts.
You’re a strong fit if you:
- Write exceptional English that sounds natural when spoken, with a strong feel for U.S. culture, humor, and everyday conversation.
- Can explain why an opening earns attention, why a joke lands, and where a viewer might lose interest.
- Turn complicated topics into simple, emotionally compelling stories while keeping factual claims accurate.
- Generate distinct concepts from the same brief.
- Create ideas that work within practical limits on cast, locations, budget, and shoot time.
- Welcome direct feedback, meet deadlines, and take ownership of your work.
Experience in short-form video, comedy writing, storytelling, or advertising is valuable. Strong writing samples matter more than a particular degree or job title. You may use AI for research and iteration. We’ll evaluate your creative judgment, your reasoning, and your ability to improve a script in a live conversation. Your scripts will become professionally produced videos. You’ll collaborate closely with the team bringing them to life and help shape the creative direction of our campaigns.
Pay is up to $12/hour, based on demonstrated writing ability. Weekly hours and time-zone overlap will be agreed before starting. To apply, send 2-3 scripts or videos you’ve written, with a brief note explaining your contribution. Shortlisted applicants will complete a short paid writing exercise and discuss their creative choices with us.
