    Job Description

    We are looking for 3-4 drama, theater and debate major types. We want
    them to the “the face” of ONC and act out short videos and other content.
    We need creative writers to back them up by providing them with material,
    jokes, scripts. If you can handle both roles, all the better.
    This is something one of our interns, Megan Amato, used to do. It’s called
    “Explain That to Me Again?” It was quite good and generated a lot of traffic. Here’s a link: https://www.instagram.com/p/C7zPsFxtIZS/ Want to
    be our next Megan Amato?
    Another intern, Sam Taylor, used to dress up like Uncle Sam and ask a
    question of the day:

    We are looking for a scriptwriter to support our new Uncle Sam. We’re also
    looking for a new Uncle Sam; if you can pull double duty, all the better.
    In addition to our ideas, we want your ideas. We are looking for new
    creative energy coming from those who understand a “Saturday Night Live”
    vibe (only we want to be equal opportunity offenders, poking clean fun at
    liberals, moderates and conservatives alike).
    There is no pay at this time. That said, you WILL get excellent hands-on
    experience and the chance to really build your resume. Who knows?
    Maybe this will be your big break. We won’t know till we try.
    Be ready to commit to four to 10 hours a week. We are completely remote
    and use Slack, Google Drive and Zoom to communicate. There are two,
    one-hour mandatory meetings each week. We operate on a semester basis;
    if you can commit to at least two or three semesters, that’s a big plus.
    Please send a 2-4 paragraph cover letter along with a resume and any links
    to video clips or social media posts you think are relevant. Tell us “Why
    you?” – and why ONC appeals to you.
    We look forward to hearing from you
