About Swarna Bharat TV:

Swarna Bharat TV is a mission-led creative platform telling precise, high-quality stories on Bharat's history, culture, spirituality, and knowledge systems. Our YouTube channel is live with RashtraGaatha, and we're rolling out additional twelve original shows—animated series, on-field documentaries, studio formats, and feature specials. We pair research-first writing with cinematic craft, and we're preparing our originals for wider distribution, including OTT.

The Role:

We're hiring a
Senior Script Writer
to lead weekly originals across our slate. You'll develop platform-ready scripts that work for digital and long-form cuts—clear hooks, clean structure, rigorous sourcing, and editor-friendly visual beats. You'll collaborate closely with researchers, editors, and designers to translate ideas into compelling, publishable episodes.

What you'll do:

1) Script & Structure

  • Deliver polished scripts on a weekly cadence; write in a clear, modern voice (Roman Hindi or English as required by the show).
  • Craft strong openings, act-based flow, and crisp endings; keep paragraphs modular for edit flexibility.

2) Research & Verification

  • Build source decks per episode: books, archives, credible journalism, papers, govt records.
  • Cross-check timelines, names, claims; maintain
    citations/footnotes
    and a transparent sources log.
  • Flag legal/ethical risks (defamation, living persons, sensitive claims) and propose safe phrasings.

3) Packaging Support

  • Provide
    visual beats
    for editors (shot ideas, archival cues, on-screen text) and contribute
    title options
    &
    thumbnail micro-copy
    per episode.

4) Collaboration & Iteration

  • Work with the team to incorporate data/feedback and improve retention, clarity, and pacing week over week.

Must-haves:

  • 4–8 years of non-fiction/script writing for digital/documentary content.
  • Proven research discipline and citation hygiene.
  • Platform sense: attention-driving openings, tight structure, and audience-friendly language.
  • On-site availability in Vashi; dependable weekly delivery.

Nice-to-haves:

  • Experience writing for anchors/VO; familiarity with archives and rights.
  • Comfort shaping scripts for both short (8–10 min) and longer (20–30 min) cuts.
  • Basic sheet hygiene (sources log, outline → draft → revision tracking).

Why join us:

  • Lead writing on originals with national resonance.
  • Mission-led team, fast decisions, visible on-screen/description credits.
  • Multi-platform exposure: digital now, repackaging for wider distribution.
