Short-Form Video Scriptwriter
Worldwide
Comedy Scene Writer Wanted — Short Video Sketches (Italian-language) Do you write for the stage — sketch, improv, comedy, theater? We want your craft, not your follower count. We help people build a recognizable personal brand, and we teach through short, funny video sketches: two characters, one comedic scene (a police stop, a customs check, a job interview…) that turns into a punchy lesson and a call to action. Think tight two-handers with real comic timing — not marketing "content." You'll write: 60–90 second two-character scenes from our briefs. We give you the structure, the setup, and the point to land; you bring the characters, the rhythm, and the laughs. We're looking for someone who writes in Italian. ⚠️ All scripts are written in Italian — native or fully fluent Italian is required. (This post is in English to reach theater and comedy writers everywhere, but the work itself is 100% in Italian.) You're a great fit if you have: a background in theater, improv, sketch or stand-up · a real ear for dialogue and comic timing · the discipline to follow a clear structure · and a love for making a point land in a single scene. Nice to have (not required): experience with short-form video, personal branding, or writing to persuade. No social media portfolio needed — writing samples or scenes are enough.
