Role Description

Newfangled Studios is seeking a contract Copywriter to support a high-profile account, creating social-first content that lives at the intersection of music, culture, fandom, and community. This is a hybrid creator role, ideal for someone who doesn't just write copy, but actively creates content, understands platform behavior, and knows how artists, creators, and audiences actually engage online.

This is a temporary engagement of approximately four months. Reporting into a Creative Director, you will:

• Concept, write, and help produce content across TikTok, Instagram/Reels, YouTube Shorts, and emerging platforms.
• Bring a strong social media background, cultural curiosity, and hands-on creator instincts.
• Contribute to everything from reactive moments and fan-driven storytelling to artist launches and campaign activations.
• Help deliver on the four points of the Newfangled North Star: Creativity and Innovation, Business Results, Respect & Inclusion, and Forward Progress.

Qualifications

• 2–5 years of experience creating or managing social-first content (agency, in-house, freelance, or creator background).
• Demonstrated experience creating content, not just writing it. Portfolio should include social posts, short-form video, scripts, or creator-style work.
• Deep familiarity with TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts from a user perspective, not just a brand one.
• Experience engaging with online communities, fandoms, or creator ecosystems.
• Availability to commit to the full contract period (approximately August through November).

Requirements

• Hands-on content creation, including UGC-style videos, text-on-screen concepts, and creator-native formats.
• Strong social media background with experience creating, posting, or managing content on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
• Community management instincts, especially for Latin-focused work.
• Collaborate closely with Art Directors, Designers, Video Editors, and creative teammates.
• Monitor daily platform trends, viral audio, artist moments, fan conversations, and creator POVs relevant to music and culture.
• Write captions for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and other emerging channels.
• Ensure consistency across messaging, hashtags, grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and clarity.
• Partner with senior creative and insights teams to understand what content is performing and why.

Benefits

• Pay Range: $60-65 hourly rate.
• Competitive salaries with a focus on pay equity.
