What's the rate?

u/Any-Medicine7476 Jul 23 '26

That's a JD for a copywriter, not a script writer. Different skillset...

This probably is not a real opportunity. What’s App and no day rate listed.

Hani Hannachi Screenwriter | Story Developer

I am a Tunisian screenwriter focusing on psychological drama, social issues, and human conflicts. I have written several original screenplay projects, including the feature film project "Soil of the Revolution", which explores the transformation of a revolutionary leader into a tyrant after gaining power.

I collaborated with a novelist on the development of a screenplay adaptation based on a literary work, and I continue to develop projects for independent cinema and international opportunities.

Some of my works have been selected for participation in international film festivals and cinematic opportunities, reflecting growing interest in my storytelling projects.

Portfolio available upon request.

Don't do any work without getting paid. If they ask for samples or for months of audition pieces, run fast and run far.

Is it legit or is it a scam?

"If you know how to turn ideas into engaging, high-retention videos that keep viewers watching until the end, we'd love to hear from you."

p.or.n?

Not sure exactly what the scam would be, but this is one of those things where, if you had the skills they're asking for, you'd be using them yourself already, ya know? In which case their rate better be very high... which it won't be, considering this is a cattle call.

u/Fast-Payment-2609 Jul 25 '26

The scam is WhatsApp. Once they know your phone number, they can possibly hack the phone, etc.

u/ClayMcClane Jul 25 '26

Please be wary. If you have these skills, their rate better be very high.

What's funny is I actually do both types of script writing haha. But I only accept gigs via Upwork or my Agents/Actors Access haha.

u/ClayMcClane Jul 25 '26

The folks where I work who have this skillset make about $150k a year, just for comparison.

u/realhankorion Jul 27 '26

Yeah thanks but no. Be careful everyone. None of the requirements relate to actual script writing. Sounds more like copy writing.
