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.
