Tangible is looking for a script writer

Tangible is looking for an experienced writer that can create scripts for short-form product marketing videos.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

We help Fortune 500 and emerging brands design, build, sell, and support products and services that people want to use. You can hire us to collaborate on a business challenge, build a culture of innovation within your organization, or both. Our client list includes Intuit, Verizon, Spotify, Capital One, and Netflix, along with a few of the world’s leading companies that prefer to keep our working relationship confidential.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Scripts are produced after a period of research and learning done by the writers and creative strategists; to understand the pain points, solutions, and benefits of the product we’re developing scripts for before writing begins. This process is often collaborative, with both client and internal project team workshops. Once scripts are complete, writers participate in storyboarding sessions to develop the creative execution strategy for the videos as well.

An ideal candidate is well-versed in using Google Docs and can track changes / edits with ease; experience using the design tool Figma is a bonus, but not required (as we’ll teach you if you don’t know how to use it :)
