About Early Media
Early Media is creating and distributing groundbreaking original series. We craft narratives with viral potential while preserving the heart of indie production, telling meaningful stories audiences actually care about. Every creative decision is sharpened by a proprietary testing and marketing engine that collapses the distance between filmmaker and audience into the tightest iteration loop in the industry.
We're hiring a Creative Writer for our kids and youth unscripted content. Someone who understands YouTube and can turn a raw idea into a complete video concept with a strong hook, clear stakes, compelling progression, and a satisfying payoff. You should know how to make stories exciting for younger audiences.
What you'll own
Develop original unscripted video concepts from initial idea through a ready to shoot story framework.
Build the full creative package for each video, including title, theme, concept, hook, stakes, drama, progression and payoff.
Work closely with producers to ensure concepts are ambitious, clear and realistic to execute within the available timeline and budget
Keep our creative bible up to date, including formats, frameworks and story templates the team works from.
