Find Screenwriting Projects on Upwork

I’m developing a 9 episode web-series that blends a classic heist plot with a long-standing love story, all wrapped in the playful yet suspenseful mood of mid-1990s pop culture. Think sharp banter, cassette-era tech, and the thrill of planning the perfect score—without losing the warm heartbeat of two characters who’ve been in love for years.

Scope of work
• Craft a season bible that outlines setting, core characters, overarching heist, and the evolving romance.
• Deliver detailed episode beats for each instalment, pacing both the crime caper and the relationship so they crescendo together.
• Write the full pilot (30–35 pages) once the outline is approved, then draft the remaining scripts in sequence.
• Weave authentic 1995 references—music, fashion, pre-digital gadgets—naturally into dialogue and scene work.

Acceptance criteria
• Tone stays a balanced mix of crime tension and rom-com levity; laughs never undercut genuine stakes.
• Heist mechanics remain plausible for the era’s technology limits.
• The romantic thread remains central: the couple’s shared history and chemistry drive every major choice.
• Each script arrives proofread and formatted to industry standard (Final Draft or equivalent).

If you have produced comparable genre pieces or can demonstrate sharp comedic timing with crime plotting, I’ll be happy to read a sample scene or logline from your past work before we start.

Scriptwriter Needed for - Kids Animated Series for YouTube

Needs to hire 50 Freelancers
Hi all! I'm finally getting around to translating my children's books from English into multiple languages Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Mandarin, Indonesian, Hebrew. There are many books.
Some of them are in verse. The books are small, the texts are short.
I need a professional who has already done literary translations. Some books will need to be translated from poetry into prose it it is impossible to translate them into poetry. Everything needs to be discussed.
Please contact me and let me know your translation price per word or character.

I’m a 15-year-old storyteller who lives and breathes fantasy and dreams of turning my ideas into polished animation scripts that speak to a teen audience. I already write short premises and character sketches but now I need a seasoned animation screenwriter who can guide me step-by-step—from tightening structure and pacing to mastering dialogue that jumps off the page.

Here’s what I hope to gain:

• A clear, age-appropriate roadmap to industry-standard screenplay format for animation
• Weekly live or recorded feedback on my pages (Google Docs or Final Draft both work for me)
• Practical exercises that strengthen world-building, stakes and character arcs aimed at teen viewers
• Honest insight on pitching an animated project once my pilot draft is ready

I’m flexible on whether we frame the lessons around film, TV or web-series conventions; the most important thing is learning how to make a fantasy concept translate visually on screen. If you have produced or optioned scripts, especially in animation, I’d love to hear about it when you respond.

Please include a short note on your approach to mentoring young writers, a sample of your own work, and an outline of how you would structure our first month together.

I already have a fully-fleshed, motivational storyline for a short film and now need it transformed into a tight, engaging screenplay. The narrative arc, key scenes, and character beats are mapped out; where I need your expertise is in structuring these elements into a professional script that runs roughly 10–15 minutes on screen, keeps the pacing crisp, and lands an emotional punch at the climax.

What I’m looking for:
• A complete short-film script in standard screenplay format (Final Draft, Celtx, Fountain, or properly formatted PDF).
• Natural, motivational dialogue that feels authentic rather than preachy.
• Clear scene headings, action lines, and transitions that translate smoothly to production.
• Up to two rounds of revisions so we can fine-tune tone and pacing.

You’ll receive my storyline document with scene summaries, character notes, and thematic goals the moment we start. Please bring your own creative flair, but stay true to the heart of the story. If you’ve written inspiring shorts before—or have samples that show you can move an audience—I’d love to read them. Let’s craft something memorable together.

# YouTube Video Editor for Faceless Searchable Content

## Project Overview

I am looking for an experienced and reliable **YouTube Video Editor** to work with me on a **faceless YouTube channel focused on long-form, searchable content**.

The goal is to create high-quality, engaging videos that are optimized for **YouTube search, audience retention, watch time, and long-term evergreen traffic**.

This is not simply a basic editing job. I am looking for someone who understands how to turn a script into a professional, engaging YouTube video using the right combination of **stock footage, AI-generated visuals, screen recordings, graphics, animations, music, sound effects, captions, and storytelling techniques**.

The editor should be able to take a completed script/voiceover and independently produce a polished video that is ready to upload to YouTube.

## Detailed Project Scope & Deliverables

For each video, you will be responsible for:

* Editing long-form YouTube videos, generally **8–20+ minutes**, depending on the topic.
* Understanding the script and voiceover before beginning the edit.
* Selecting relevant and visually interesting stock footage, images, clips, screenshots, or other appropriate visual assets.
* Creating a strong visual flow so the video does not feel repetitive or boring.
* Synchronizing visuals with the voiceover.
* Adding appropriate transitions without overusing them.
* Adding text overlays, titles, key points, statistics, quotes, and important information where appropriate.
* Adding subtitles/captions when required.
* Using zooms, pans, motion graphics, and subtle animations to maintain viewer attention.
* Adding appropriate background music.
* Using sound effects strategically to make important moments more engaging.
* Maintaining professional audio levels and clean voiceover quality.
* Removing unnecessary pauses, mistakes, awkward sections, and dead space.
* Creating visual hooks during the introduction.
* Maintaining audience retention throughout the video by changing visuals regularly and emphasizing important moments.
* Ensuring the final video has a professional, modern YouTube style.
* Following the channel's visual identity and editing guidelines.
* Exporting videos in high-quality YouTube-ready format, preferably 1080p or higher.

### Searchable/Evergreen Content

Because the channel will focus heavily on **searchable and evergreen topics**, the editor should understand how to visually present informational content.

For example, when the narration discusses:

* Statistics → use charts, numbers, graphics, or relevant footage.
* Historical events → use archival images, maps, timelines, and relevant footage.
* Business topics → use company visuals, websites, screenshots, charts, and relevant B-roll.
* Technology → use screen recordings, product visuals, animations, and demonstrations.
* Interesting facts → use visually compelling footage and text emphasis.
* Step-by-step explanations → use clear visual demonstrations and graphics.

The visuals should support the narration rather than simply playing random stock footage in the background.

## Deadline Expectations

I expect reliable and consistent delivery.

The normal turnaround will be approximately **3–5 days per long-form video**, depending on the video's length and complexity.

If a project requires more time because of extensive research, animation, graphics, or revisions, communicate this **before the deadline**, not after.

Meeting deadlines consistently is extremely important.

I am looking for someone who can potentially work with me on a **long-term basis**, so reliability is more important than completing one project quickly.

## Required Experience

You should have:

* Proven experience editing **YouTube long-form videos**.
* Experience with **faceless YouTube channels** is strongly preferred.
* Strong understanding of YouTube audience retention.
* Good storytelling and pacing skills.
* Experience working with stock footage and visual assets.
* Experience creating engaging informational/documentary-style videos.
* Good knowledge of copyright-safe footage, images, music, and sound effects.
* Ability to edit voiceover-based videos.
* Strong understanding of music and sound design.
* Experience with text animations and basic motion graphics.
* Ability to create visually engaging videos without relying on the presence of an on-camera presenter.
* Excellent attention to detail.
* Good English comprehension.
* Ability to follow instructions and maintain consistency across multiple videos.

Experience with **Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, or similar professional editing software** is acceptable.

## Working Style

You will primarily work **independently**.

I will provide the necessary information such as:

* Video topic
* Script
* Voiceover
* Channel direction/style
* Specific instructions when required

You will then be expected to take responsibility for the editing process and produce the finished video.

I do not want to explain every individual editing decision.

I am looking for someone who can watch the footage, understand the story, identify what needs to be shown, and make good creative decisions independently.

You should be comfortable saying:

"This section would work better with a graphic."

or

"This visual is not strong enough; I recommend using a different clip."

I value creative thinking and initiative.

## Areas Where I Need Your Expertise

I would especially appreciate your expertise in:

### 1. Audience Retention

Help make videos engaging from the first few seconds and maintain viewer interest throughout the video.

### 2. Visual Storytelling

Know what visuals should appear while each part of the narration is being spoken.

### 3. Pacing

Know when to change footage, introduce graphics, add text, use a zoom, create a pause, or allow a scene to breathe.

### 4. B-Roll Selection

Find relevant, high-quality, copyright-safe visual assets rather than using repetitive or irrelevant footage.

### 5. Sound Design

Use background music and sound effects appropriately without overpowering the narration.

### 6. Motion Graphics

Create simple but professional animations, charts, maps, text effects, timelines, and visual explanations when necessary.

### 7. YouTube Best Practices

Bring your own knowledge of what makes long-form YouTube videos engaging and competitive.

### 8. Creative Improvement

If you believe something in the script or visual presentation can be improved from an editing perspective, I want you to make recommendations rather than simply following instructions mechanically.

## Quality Expectations

I am looking for **quality over rushed production**.

The final video should:

* Look professional.
* Feel engaging.
* Have excellent pacing.
* Keep viewers visually interested.
* Have clean audio.
* Avoid unnecessary effects.
* Avoid repetitive stock footage.
* Have strong visual storytelling.
* Be easy to understand.
* Feel like a professionally produced YouTube video rather than a simple slideshow.

## Long-Term Opportunity

This project is intended to become a **long-term working relationship**.

If the first projects are successful, I would like to work with the same editor consistently and potentially increase the number of videos produced each month.

Therefore, I am looking for someone who is:

* Reliable
* Creative
* Responsive
* Detail-oriented
* Experienced
* Honest about deadlines
* Comfortable working independently
* Interested in long-term collaboration

## When Applying

Please provide:

1. Examples of **3–5 long-form YouTube videos** you have edited.
2. At least **one faceless YouTube video**, if available.
3. Your experience with searchable/evergreen YouTube content.
4. The editing software you use.
5. Your typical turnaround time for a 10–15 minute video.
6. Your price per video or your preferred pricing structure.
7. Whether you can handle stock footage/B-roll sourcing yourself.
8. Whether you can create basic motion graphics and animations.
9. Your availability and how many videos you can realistically complete per week.

**Important:** Please only apply if you have experience creating engaging long-form YouTube content and can demonstrate your work.

I am looking for a **long-term editor, not someone who is only interested in completing one project.**

“Woh Aakhri Baarish”

Aarav ko baarish hamesha se pasand thi. Lekin us din ki baarish uski zindagi badalne wali thi.

College se ghar jaate waqt woh bus stop par khada tha. Baarish tez thi, aur tabhi ek ladki bhaagte hue uske paas aakar ruk gayi.

“Excuse me… thoda umbrella share kar sakte ho?” usne muskurate hue poocha.

Aarav ne bina kuch kahe umbrella uski taraf kar diya.

“Thank you. Waise, mera naam Meera hai.”

“Aarav.”

Bas ek chhoti si mulaqat thi… lekin dono ke dil mein kuch reh gaya.

Agle din Meera phir usi bus stop par mili. Phir agle din bhi. Dheere-dheere baarish ka bahana khatam ho gaya, lekin milna nahi.

Ek saal baad, Aarav ne himmat karke Meera se kaha, “Meera, mujhe tumse kuch kehna hai…”

Meera muskuraayi, “Mujhe pata hai.”

“Kaise?”

“Kyuki main bhi tumse wahi kehna chahti hoon.”

Dono hans pade.

Kuch mahine baad unki shaadi ho gayi.

Shaadi ke din bhi baarish ho rahi thi.

Aarav ne Meera ka haath pakadkar kaha, “Lagta hai baarish ko bhi hamari love story pasand hai.”

Meera ne muskura kar jawab diya, “Nahi… baarish nahi. Shayad us din se meri kismat tumhare saath bheeg rahi thi.”

Aur us din ke baad, jab bhi baarish hoti… dono ek hi umbrella ke neeche khade hokar apni pehli mulaqat ko yaad karte.

Kuch love stories shuru nahi hoti… bas ek baarish ke saath khud-ba-khud likhi jaati hain.

I have a YouTube channel (250k subscriobers), and I write my own scripts.

I'm looking for someone who can write them the way I would.

I build on three-act structure and the hero's journey.

My story instincts come from film — I like directors with a specific visual signature — and I care about dialogue and humor as much as I care about structure.

A script that's clean but flat isn't a fit.

I'd rather hire someone with the right influences. I'm looking for someone obsessed with writing — who loves the mechanics of it as much as the storytelling. Someone who doesn't reach for AI immediately but obsesses over the words and the details.

To apply, answer these. I'll read the answers and skip generic proposals.

1. What story structures do you use? Which is your go-to and why?
2. Two films you'd rewatch this year. What do you enjoy about them?
3. Two shows you love. What did you take from each?
3. One nonfiction book, and why that one.
4. Whose writing have you tried to imitate? How close did you get, and where did it fall apart?
5. Your two favorite comedians. Your favorite bit from them, and why.
6. A scene of dialogue you wish you'd written. What makes it work?
7. A movie you think is good but structurally wrong. How would you rebuild it — acts, order, cuts?

Short answers are fine. Specifics beat length. Have fun with your answers.

Looking for someone I can have fun with and who wants to work with a team!

Screenwriter Premium Vertical Drama Microdrama

Remote | Part Time - Ongoing

We're looking for a talented Screenwriter Scriptwriter to work with us on a new generation of vertical dramas and microdramas.

We're not interested in making cheesy, formulaic microdramas.

We believe the vertical format can support far more ambitious storytelling, new genres, new audiences, more interesting characters and stories with genuine emotional and thematic depth.

Our aim is to bring Hollywood quality storytelling, character development and cinematic ambition into a format traditionally associated with much lighter entertainment.

We're looking for a writer who wants to help us explore what this format can become.

The Audience

A significant part of our content is designed for a male audience ranging approximately from their mid 20s to late 40s.

You should understand how to write compelling entertainment for this audience without falling into clichés about what content for men needs to be.

We're interested in exploring different genres and verticals, not repeating the same relationship, billionaire and revenge formulas already prevalent within microdrama.

The exact genre may change.

Strong storytelling shouldn't.

What We're Looking For

Fundamentally, we're looking for someone who can write.

Someone who understands

Character

Conflict

Dialogue

Subtext

Emotional stakes

Pacing

Suspense

Set ups and payoffs

Scene construction

Narrative escalation

Character arcs

Visual storytelling

Strong openings

Episode endings that create genuine anticipation

You should understand traditional screenwriting and be excited about adapting those principles to a faster, mobile first storytelling format.

Experience writing film, television, short films, digital series, vertical drama or microdrama is highly relevant.

Writing for Vertical Drama

Vertical drama requires its own storytelling discipline.

Episodes are short. Attention matters. Scenes need purpose. Stories need momentum.

But fast doesn't mean shallow.

We're interested in writers who can create immediate narrative momentum while still building characters and worlds an audience actually cares about.

You should be comfortable thinking about

What makes someone watch the first five seconds

What makes them care after five minutes

What makes them come back for the next episode

We care about all three.

You Must Be Comfortable Creating Variants

This is an important part of our process.

We don't necessarily want the first idea treated as the final answer.

You may be asked to develop multiple versions of important story moments, particularly openings, hooks, reveals or scenes.

For example

Here are five different ways we could open this scene.

Those five openings might approach the same story through

Action

Conflict

Dialogue

Mystery

Character

A reveal

An unexpected visual

A different point of view

We can then evaluate which approach creates the strongest version of the story.

You should enjoy this kind of iterative creative development, rather than seeing alternative versions as wasted writing.

Human Writing Plus AI Efficiency

We are an AI enabled creative company, and you should be comfortable using AI as part of your writing process.

However, we don't want generic AI generated screenplays.

We're looking for a writer who can combine human taste, judgement, emotion and originality with the speed and iterative capabilities of AI.

AI might help you

Explore alternative scenes

Generate opening variants

Pressure test story logic

Research unfamiliar subjects

Explore character possibilities

Develop alternative plot directions

Analyse structure

Iterate faster

Identify continuity issues

Accelerate rewrites

But you remain the writer.

You need to recognise when AI has produced something predictable, unnatural or dramatically weak, and know how to make it better.

We're interested in AI efficiency without sacrificing human quality.

The Role

Depending on the project, you may work across

Concepts and story development

Treatments

Character development

Episode structures

Screenplays

Dialogue

Scene rewrites

Alternative hooks and openings

Script optimisation

Narrative continuity

Creative development based on audience feedback

You'll work collaboratively with a team developing and producing the shows.

We want someone who is comfortable receiving feedback, challenging ideas when appropriate and iterating quickly.

Engagement

This is initially a part time freelance role.

Starting budget 400 USD

We're open to different working relationships depending on the writer and project.

These can include

Fixed screenplay projects

Ongoing assignments

Part time monthly retainers

For the right writer, we're particularly interested in developing an ongoing creative relationship across multiple shows.

How to Apply

Please send us

1 A short introduction and overview of your screenwriting experience

2 One to three examples of your strongest relevant writing

3 Any experience writing film, television, short form narrative, vertical drama or microdrama

4 Genres you feel particularly strong writing

5 Examples of writing aimed at a predominantly mid 20s to late 40s male audience, if available

6 A short explanation of how you currently use AI in your writing process, if applicable

7 Your availability for ongoing part time work

One Short Creative Question

Imagine you've written a scene that introduces an important character.

Instead of simply submitting that opening, we ask you

Give us five genuinely different ways this scene could begin.

How would you approach creating those alternatives while ensuring each version still serves the wider story

We're looking for writers who combine the instincts of a screenwriter, the curiosity of a storyteller and the speed of an AI enabled creative process.

I want a tightly-crafted YouTube script that plunges viewers into a small Midwestern town where nothing is as quiet as it seems. The tone must stay gritty and grounded in reality—no ghosts or jump-scares, just the chilling details of a murder mystery that gradually unravels a web of local organized crime.

Structure the story for a 12–15-minute video: a gripping cold-open, concise scene descriptions, natural dialogue, and clear narration cues so the voice-over flows smoothly. Pacing is critical; each beat should raise the stakes while keeping the twists believable.

I’ll supply the channel’s intro/outro copy once we’re underway. What I need from you is:

• A complete script (roughly 1,800–2,200 words) formatted for easy voice-over and on-screen text
• Brief side notes where atmospheric sound or visuals would heighten tension
• A short logline plus a two-sentence synopsis I can use for the video description

The script has to revolve around the investigation of a brutal homicide that exposes the town’s long-running smuggling ring. Evidence, alibis, and confrontations should feel authentic, with local slang and small-town politics woven in naturally. No clichéd detectives or sudden supernatural twists—keep it plausible and hard-hitting.

Once delivered, I’ll review for continuity and realism. If the clues line up, the tension holds, and the ending lands without loose threads, we’re good to go.

I have a completed drama feature that was originally typed in Microsoft Word, and I now need the whole screenplay migrated into Final Draft and professionally formatted. Every scene heading, action line, and block of dialogue must follow industry-standard movie specs so the file is ready for table reads and producer review without any extra polishing.

You’ll receive the Word document (approximately 41 pages) and return a clean .fdx file with:

• Correct scene headings (INT./EXT., location, time of day)
• Proper dialogue elements—character cues, parentheticals, dual dialogue where needed
• Consistent action/description spacing and capitalization
• Page breaks that keep all elements within Final Draft’s standard margins

Before delivery, please run Final Draft’s built-in formatting check to ensure no spec errors remain. I’m happy to answer structure or continuity questions as you work so the draft stays true to my original vision.

I also welcome your input and guidance on the narrative, structure and development to help further assit and improve the story.

Once the file opens seamlessly on my end and formatting passes Final Draft’s checks, the project is complete.

The Academy of Hollow Stars
Some stars shine. Others remember.
When seventeen-year-old Aanya begins seeing strange visions whenever she touches blood, she believes she is losing her mind. Until a mysterious invitation arrives from an academy hidden deep within the Himalayas—a school that doesn't appear on any map.
The Academy of Hollow Stars teaches students who possess abilities the ordinary world was never meant to know about. But Aanya soon discovers that her visions aren't dreams. They are memories—memories belonging to someone who disappeared from the academy years ago.
As students begin vanishing, forbidden corridors open beneath the school, and a voice starts calling Aanya by a name she has never heard before, she realizes the academy is hiding something terrifying.
Something connected to her.
And the deeper Aanya goes, the more she learns that the stars above the academy aren't really stars at all.
They are watching.
Enter the Academy. Discover the Hollow Stars. And be careful what you remember.

The task is to craft a feature-length screenplay (roughly 90-110 pages) that plunges a close-knit rural community into a relentless crime investigation. At the center stands a seasoned law-enforcement officer whose every move is watched by neighbors, suspects, and local media alike. The tone should be raw and authentic—think early-morning diner coffee, muddy patrol cars, and whispered rumors that never quite fade.

Scope of work
• Develop a compelling logline and one-page synopsis that capture the story’s hook.
• Expand this into a three-act treatment highlighting the investigation arc, twists, and emotional stakes.
• Deliver a full script in Final Draft, Fade In, or Celtx format, formatted to industry standards.
• Include up to two rounds of revisions based on my notes to tighten dialogue, pacing, and character nuance.

Key narrative points to hit
• Crime Investigation: the investigation must drive every scene, revealing the town’s secrets layer by layer.
• Law-Enforcement Protagonist: show both professional skill and personal vulnerability—long shifts, political pressure, and the weight of public trust.
• Small-Town Texture: supporting characters, landmarks, and local customs should feel lived-in, never stereotyped.

Acceptance criteria
1. Script file opens cleanly in Final Draft (or provided alternative) with correct slug lines, scene numbers optional.
2. A clear three-act structure with a satisfying yet grounded resolution.
3. Dialogue distinct to each character, minimal exposition dumps.
4. Fewer than two minor formatting issues per act.

I will supply local law-enforcement reference material and real news clippings once we agree on the outline. Let’s build a story that feels so real the audience can almost taste the dust in the air.

I’m looking for a writer who can craft a moving, emotionally-driven video script designed especially for seniors. The goal is to speak to their life experience, stir nostalgia, and leave them with a warm, uplifting feeling.

Once I share the core message and any key moments I need included, you’ll shape it into a cohesive narrative complete with natural dialogue, scene directions, and light pacing cues so a director or editor can pick it up and shoot without guesswork. Aim for language that’s clear and conversational—nothing overly flowery—so every line feels genuine and relatable to an older audience.

Deliverables:
• A polished, film-ready script (roughly three minutes of screen time, though I’m flexible)
• Brief opening slug lines or scene headings to guide visual setup
• Any suggested emotional beats or pauses noted within the text

I’m happy to discuss tone, length, or thematic details before you begin, and I’ll turn around feedback quickly so we can get to a final version that truly resonates.

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Experience in scriptwriting for web series
- Strong understanding of drama genre conventions

I want a tightly-crafted YouTube script that plunges viewers into a small Midwestern town where nothing is as quiet as it seems. The tone must stay gritty and grounded in reality—no ghosts or jump-scares, just the chilling details of a murder mystery that gradually unravels a web of local organized crime.

Structure the story for a 12–15-minute video: a gripping cold-open, concise scene descriptions, natural dialogue, and clear narration cues so the voice-over flows smoothly. Pacing is critical; each beat should raise the stakes while keeping the twists believable.

I’ll supply the channel’s intro/outro copy once we’re underway. What I need from you is:

• A complete script (roughly 1,800–2,200 words) formatted for easy voice-over and on-screen text
• Brief side notes where atmospheric sound or visuals would heighten tension
• A short logline plus a two-sentence synopsis I can use for the video description

The script has to revolve around the investigation of a brutal homicide that exposes the town’s long-running smuggling ring. Evidence, alibis, and confrontations should feel authentic, with local slang and small-town politics woven in naturally. No clichéd detectives or sudden supernatural twists—keep it plausible and hard-hitting.

Once delivered, I’ll review for continuity and realism. If the clues line up, the tension holds, and the ending lands without loose threads, we’re good to go.
