To thrive in Animation Script Writing, you need strong storytelling abilities, creativity, and a solid grasp of script formatting, often supported by a degree in creative writing, screenwriting, or a related field. Familiarity with industry-standard software like Final Draft, Celtx, or Adobe Story, as well as experience writing for animation pipelines, is highly valuable. Collaboration, adaptability, and the ability to accept and apply feedback are crucial soft skills for success in this role. These skills ensure scripts are engaging, meet production needs, and contribute to a cohesive team-driven creative process.
A typical day for an animation script writer often involves brainstorming story ideas, outlining episodes or scenes, and drafting or revising scripts in alignment with creative briefs and production schedules. Writers frequently collaborate with directors, storyboard artists, and fellow writers to ensure scripts are visually engaging and align with the animation style. Meetings for script reads, feedback sessions, and revisions are common parts of the workflow. This role requires balancing creative vision with production constraints and being receptive to input from the broader production team. Working in animation script writing can be both dynamic and rewarding, offering opportunities to see your ideas come to life on screen.
An animation script writing job involves creating scripts for animated films, TV shows, web series, or advertisements. Writers develop compelling stories, dialogue, and scene descriptions that guide animators and voice actors in bringing characters and plots to life. They collaborate with directors, storyboard artists, and producers to ensure the script aligns with the animation style and target audience. Strong storytelling, creativity, and knowledge of animation production are essential for this role.

Our client is seeking an experienced Art Director to lead the creative direction and production of high-impact political advertising campaigns. This individual will own the visual direction of television, digital, and social campaigns while collaborating with writers, editors, motion graphics artists, and production teams to deliver compelling creative work. This is not a daily hands-on editing role. Instead, you'll develop concepts, direct the creative process, and help the team produce exceptional work from script through final delivery. While political campaign experience is a plus, outstanding commercial storytelling and motion graphics experience are equally valuable.
You Will:
• Lead the creative direction for television, digital, and social advertising campaigns.
• Partner with copywriters and strategists to develop concepts from scripts through final production.
• Establish the overall visual look, creative direction, pacing, and storytelling for each campaign.
• Direct editors, motion graphics artists, and production partners throughout the creative process.
• Participate in client presentations, creative reviews, and feedback sessions.
• Lead projects that typically consist of approximately 70% motion graphics and 30% live-action video production.
• Help develop storyboards, visual treatments, animation direction, typography, and overall campaign aesthetics.
• Ensure creative work is delivered on time while maintaining a high standard of quality across multiple concurrent projects.
• Collaborate closely with leadership as the agency prepares advertising campaigns.
You Have:
• 6-10+ years of Art Direction, Creative Direction, or comparable agency creative leadership experience.
• Strong background directing motion graphics and commercial video production.
• Advanced knowledge of Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, and the Adobe Creative Suite.
• Experience with DaVinci Resolve or similar post-production workflows.
• Exceptional visual storytelling, concept development, and creative leadership skills.
• Experience directing editors, designers, and production teams without necessarily performing the hands-on editing yourself.
• Agency experience producing broadcast television, digital advertising, commercial, or branded content.
• Political campaign, advocacy, Super PAC, or issue advertising experience is a plus but not required.
• Strong presentation and client communication skills.
Logistics:
• Start Date/Duration: Immediate start and contracting through October 2026.
• Hours/Week: 40 Hours/Week
• Onsite/Offsite: Hybrid/Remote but candidates must be local to Arlington, VA for training, collaboration, client meetings, and production needs.
• Laptop/Software Requirements: Client-provided
• Hourly Pay Rate: $90-$100+/Hour DOE
