YouTube Scriptwriter – Long-Form Storytelling (Old Money / Historic Mansions)

🌍 Remote, USA 🎯 Full-time 🕐 Posted Recently

Job Description

Hi there,

I’m starting a new YouTube channel in the Old Money / Historic Mansions niche and I’m looking for a strong storytelling scriptwriter to join the project long-term.

This is not a news channel.

This is not a political channel.

This is not keyword-stuffed SEO writing.

This is immersive, long-form storytelling.

What the channel is about

The channel will focus on:

  • Historic estates
  • Old money dynasties
  • Wealth, power, legacy
  • Scandals, secrets, downfall
  • The untold stories behind iconic mansions

Think: atmosphere, tension, layered storytelling.

Videos will be 45–90 minutes long.

We will start with 1 video per week.

What I’m looking for

You’re a great fit if you:

  • Love writing long, immersive stories
  • Understand pacing and narrative structure
  • Know how to build tension without overdoing it
  • Can write in clean, natural, fluent English
  • Understand that hooks matter (at the beginning and throughout)
  • Know how to avoid filler and generic YouTube clichés

This is storytelling-driven content.

Not blog writing.

Not keyword padding.

Not “Hi guys, welcome back to the channel” scripts.

Script Style Requirements

The structure should follow this kind of rhythm:

1. Strong atmospheric hook

  • Immediate immersion
  • Introduce mystery / tension
  • No greetings, no subscribe requests

2. Clear narrative direction

  • Establish stakes early
  • Why does this story matter?

3. Escalation

  • Build emotional layers
  • Introduce conflict, power shifts, secrets, downfall

4. Strategic micro-hooks throughout

  • Light open loops
  • Curiosity triggers
  • Smooth transitions

5. Strong thematic ending

  • Reflective tone
  • Legacy / consequences / symbolism
  • No abrupt endings

The tone should feel cinematic, calm, controlled — not sensational or chaotic.

Important

I don’t mind if you use AI as a tool for research.

But the final script must feel human.

If your writing reads robotic, generic, or keyword-stuffed, this won’t be a fit.

I’m looking for a writer — not a content generator.

Workflow

  • 1 long-form script per week
  • Clear briefs will be provided
  • Ongoing collaboration if it’s a good fit

Budget

We pay per script.

The exact rate will depend on:

  • Length
  • Quality
  • Experience
  • Consistency

I’m looking for long-term collaboration, not one-off projects.

How to Apply

To make sure you actually read this post, start your application with:

OLD MONEY

Then include:

  • 1–2 examples of long-form storytelling scripts you’ve written
  • A short note (2–3 sentences max) on what makes a great opening hook for a historical mansion story
  • Your turnaround time for a 60-minute script

Applications that don’t follow the instructions won’t be considered.

If you love writing layered stories about power, wealth, legacy, and downfall — this could be a really strong long-term partnership.

Looking forward to reading your work.
