Editorial World Remote Writing Jobs - Issue 32: Netflix, Rolling Stone, Oracle
Non-pitch remote-only editorial jobs that support and fit around your real passions.
Around YouTube…
How is everyone?? My ongoing quest to bring you the best writing-related panel discussions led me to this video from the Santa Barbara International Film Festival 2024. The Writers Panel: "It Starts with the Script" is a fascinating discussion with the screenwriters behind some of the most talked-about films of the past year. Find out how projects like Maestro and Anatomy of a Fall were developed, the screenwriters’ creative processes and challenges, and what makes a script really come to life.
Upgrade to paid ($6/mth) to help keep Editorial World going!
