Our feature film news & discussion site is looking to add a Publicist Contact to our staff. Chief among the Publicist Contact’s responsibilities will be, as the job title suggests, interfacing with publicists in the entertainment industry. We’re looking for someone who loves building professional relationships and isn’t afraid to pick up the phone or send an email.
Please note that this is an UNPAID position, but also one where you’ll get to jump into the deep end of entertainment publicity and have an immediate and tangible impact. Prior work in entertainment publicity is appreciated, but more important is your willingness to take ownership in what we’re doing and help drive our growth. In addition to building our professional network and providing resources for our writing staff, you will also work closely with our Social Media Manager to promote our content and drive interaction with our readers.
If you think you might be a good fit for us, please let us know a little bit about yourself and your experience in the body of your email with a resume attached and the subject line “PUBLICIST CONTACT” followed by the title of your favorite Tom Hanks movie so we know that you’ve read and understand all of the above posting and you are not a robot.

If you live and breathe movies and love talking about movies, filmmaking, and storytelling, this is the place for you. Editorial writers are expected to be highly interactive with the critical conversation surrounding industry trends, pieces of movie news, and (especially) new and recent releases.
We are a young and growing company, meaning there is lots of opportunity for your voice to be heard, but please note that this also means there is little to no budget. We do provide press access where we are able, but this is an UNPAID position.
We Should Talk More If...
You love movies and love talking about movies.
You’re excited by ideas and want to drive conversation surrounding movies and movie industry news.
You have demonstrable writing experience, including experience reviewing movies. Please send us two samples or direct links to samples of your best work. Applications without writing samples will not be considered.
You’re awesome at internet research and know how to find reputable information about anything in just a few minutes.
You’re familiar with the film industry as a whole and understand running industry trends.
We’ll Be Extra Excited If...
You’ve worked in the film industry or have prior experience covering the movies.
You know and/or are connected with a particular subsection of the film industry (like if you’re the Lion King of all things Disney animation).
You’re familiar with things like Wordpress, Google Drive, Slack, and really basic HTML.
You’ve got a track record of developing unique feature and opinion content.
You can break down a movie and explain complex filmmaking decisions to a lay audience.
Please tell us about yourself and submit a resume and two recent movie editorials with the subject line "Features Writer" followed by the name of your favorite character from Star Wars so we know that you’ve read and understand all of the above posting and you are not a robot (although C-3PO and R2-D2 are still acceptable answers).

Do you like writing about music and keeping up with the latest news in the industry? Do you have the ability and availability to produce music news content quickly and accurately when called upon? Look no further, because mxdwn is seeking applicants for positions for breaking news music writers.
The two time slots available for this position will be 9AM PST – 3PM PST and 3PM PST – 9PM PST, with every day of the week accounted for.

The ideal candidate will possess the timeliness and dependability to get instructed breaking news articles published within 15-20 minutes.
