WhatCulture Needs Film Bloggers - Write For Us And Get Paid
Film team assemble!
Are movies your life?
Do you know exactly where to find news as (and even before) it breaks?
Would you rather save your out of print Criterion DVD than your family from a burning fire?
WhatCulture are on the hunt for a team of bloggers to join our Film & TV section to lead a revolution in our content, supplementing the features and lists we already write with news and commentary.
Think of us as Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury at the end of the first Iron Man movie... we're putting a team together and we want you to be a part of it...
We've covered Movie News in the past, and it's time we welcomed back an old friend in a new way. We want a new army of experienced, opinionated bloggers to cover every aspect of mainstream movie and TV releases, writing opinion pieces, guiding polls and covering the news in timely, entertaining posts.
Working with WhatCulture.com is a unique opportunity: we're as much about fun and enriching work as we are about occupational development. This position will require the successful candidate to help establish and grow the Film & TV section of the site with exceptional quality content, exclusives and up to the minute commentary on the biggest breaking news stories from around Hollywood.
We don't just want regurgitation, we want passion, opinion and insight. And if you've got all three, with a flair for creating engaging content and a social track record, you're exactly what we want.
Responsibilities
Work to an established hourly schedule or a set monthly number of articles, covering Film & TV news and blogging on major new releases and hot topics in the industry.
Manage and create content for the Movie News section of the site, covering all aspects of the news, focusing chiefly on the films that matter to most people.
Find and breaking exclusives. Seeking the news and not just letting it come to you.
Required Experience:
Vast knowledge of and passion for movies and how Hollywood works.
Exceptional writing skills.
Knowledge of social writing and the emerging trends of the internet.
Existing contacts with PRs and industry insiders preferred.
High emotional intelligence and great communication skills.
A love for WhatCulture.com that burns through to your very soul.
