Movie Make-out

Join the Movie Make-out team!

Do you love movies? Can you string together sentences that actually make sense? Do you want to write about movie news 3–5 times a week for almost no money at all? If you answered yes to all of these, then you should apply to join the Movie Make-out team!

That’s right: Movie Make-out is looking for a third writer to expand its coverage of film news. (Okay, let’s face it; I don’t post much, so really a second writer.) Thick skin, the ability to edit images for posting on teh intarwebz, strong grammar, and the desire to churn out a healthy balance of news and commentary (not just fanboy-like bitching) are a must. A broad knowledge of film — that includes movies made before you were born and outside of the United States — and familiarity with WordPress are a huge plus.

Please submit 2–3 writing samples, ideally of recent movie news, to gordon at multiplexcomic.com. Please include at least one independent and/or foreign film, cite (link to) at least two sources in each article, and provide an example of an image or video you would use to illustrate the post. You will not be writing reviews (at least not at first), so please do not send them as samples.

    I didn't get a response when I sent some last year, so I don't know if I should bother again. Then again, I'm not sure if Gordon didn't get around to it, or whether he didn't like my style. I don't know. I might try again.

    Is there a deadline?
  • Try again! Last year, I got dropped by ADSDAQ and our ad revenue was cut in half, so I could no longer afford to bring a new writer on. I just got picked up by them again and revenue is back up, so I'm looking again. Sorry to anybody who submitted before! There is no deadline, but the sooner the better.

    One suggestion: write NEW items specifically for this, because many of the existing submissions have been more opinion pieces than news items, which is exactly what I don't want. (Some opinion/commentary is good, but it should not take up more words than the news.)
  • I just finished one article, ONWARDS TO THE NEXT!~
