Summary

We are looking for a creative comedy script writer to develop short-form episodic scripts for an animated series in a fast-paced, character-driven format. The series is a 14+ animated comedy built around simple, instantly understandable character problems that escalate through action, visual humour, and absurd solutions. We are NOT looking for dialogue-heavy writing. This is a visual-first comedy format, where humour comes from behaviour, escalation, and physical storytelling rather than explanation.
