Scriptwriter

$25 - $40 per hour

Wheelersmedia

Write scripts and direct-response copy for automotive, corporate and local-service video campaigns.

Location Remote

Compensation $25 – $40 / hr

Engagement Type Contract

The Objective

Your scripts are the blueprint for everything that gets shot and cut after you. You'll write short automotive spots, industrial mini-documentaries, and local-service ads, and you need a real sense of pacing and what actually holds attention.

You write for the edit: your scripts should include visual cues, b-roll direction, and sound notes our crew can shoot and cut against directly. No filler. If you can take a complicated B2B pitch and turn it into a clear 30-second script, that's the job.

The Arsenal

  • Strong direct-response copywriting and visual storytelling
  • Able to write 'for the edit': pacing, A-roll/B-roll structure, audio cues
  • Experience across formats: 30s/60s spots, longer sales videos, short-form social hooks
  • A real sense of what keeps a viewer watching
  • Able to write in different brand voices, from automotive to industrial
  • Comfortable rewriting based on feedback and strategy changes
  • A portfolio of real commercial, agency, or corporate video scripts
  • 2+ years of experience in agency or commercial scriptwriting
