Overview

Help shape how AI talks about TV and film.


We’re looking for writers with genuine entertainment fluency — people who actually watch anime, K-drama, dark comedy, atmospheric horror, and family cinema, and can write about it in a polished, on-brand voice.


You’ll work from home on a flexible schedule.

What you will do

  • Write short-form content about TV shows, films, and entertainment titles in a defined brand voice
  • Rewrite AI-generated entertainment copy so it sounds natural, accurate, and tonally right for the genre
  • Research plot details, cast, episodes, and cultural context to keep every line factually correct
  • Match tone to the title — a horror logline shouldn’t read like a rom-com summary
  • Flag AI responses that miss genre conventions, get facts wrong, or feel off in voice

Project details

  • Start date: Immediate
  • Duration: Ongoing
  • Hours: ~20 hours per week, flexible schedule
  • Job type: Freelance contract
  • Location: Remote, US-based
  • Rate: $40/h

Who we are looking for

  • A real writer — short-form copy, editorial, brand, fiction, screenwriting, or published reviews. Not “writing-adjacent” work. A portfolio link, clippings, Substack, or published samples should accompany your application.
  • Genuine entertainment fluency — If you can tell us, off the top of your head, the difference between isekai and shōnen, name a comedian whose set you’d recommend to a friend, or explain why a K-drama like Destined With You works, you’re the right person.
  • Native or near-native conversational US English, with strong control of tone, grammar, and register.
    Comfortable writing inside a brand voice — you’ve written as a publication, brand, or persona before, not just in your own voice.
  • A background in English, Creative Writing, Journalism, Film/Media Studies, Theatre, or Communications is a plus, not a requirement.
  • Ready for structured short-form work with character limits, style guides, and a high accuracy bar.
