Script Writer

Position: Lead Story Writer – Gen Z Short-form Series

Type: Freelance / Part-Time / Remote-friendly

Start Date: ASAP

Location: Open (but if you're in Hyderabad, we high-five)

🎯 What We’re Building

We’re launching a cinematic storytelling project for Gen Z and Gen Alpha — raw, emotional, romantic, messy, funny, painfully real.

Think @listentbh meets your favorite rom-com meets hostel chaos.

We already have the team — Director, DOP, Editor, Cast — now we’re looking for the brain behind the feels: a damn good storyteller.

🧠 What You'll Do

Craft 10–15 episodic arcs (30s–90s per episode) in genres like:

College love stories

Breakups and situationships

Friendships and fallouts

Dreams, struggles, rejections, glow-ups

Write scripts that read like real conversations — Gen Z tone, meme-coded, cut-worthy

Brainstorm with director + editor for flow and scene transitions

Create characters that feel like your friends — flawed, dramatic, lovable

Drop cliffhangers that make people smash that follow

💥 You’re Perfect If You:

Have soul in your writing (and can make people cry or scream in the comments)

Love series like Accidentally Yours, Little Things, Mismatched, or Yeh Meri Family

Can write emotionally rich stories with tight dialogue and crisp beats

Understand Instagram storytelling — what works visually and emotionally

Are obsessed with pacing, relatability, and punchlines

Have 1-2 samples or reels to showcase your vibe (or just blow us away with one idea)

🚀 Bonus If You:

Have written for reels, shorts, ad films, theatre, or even your college fest

Know what music track can elevate a script

Have a Notion or Google Doc filled with random story ideas you never pitched

📩 How to Apply

Send:

2 samples (scripts or links to your stories/videos)

A one-liner story idea you'd pitch if this was your show

Your Instagram handle (if you're active there)

To: hr@studenttribe.in
