Job Description

  • Company: Moris Media
  • Location: Remotely For Now
  • Position: Scriptwriter for Advertising and Film
  • Type: Full-time
  • Experience Level: Mid-level to Senior
  • Reports to: Creative Director

Moris Media is currently hiring a talented and imaginative Scriptwriter for a Script Writer position in Dublin. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in advertising and film, with a flair for developing unique and engaging concepts. They will have a particular focus on digital advertising, corporate films, and short-form content for OTT platforms. This role requires a deep understanding of the target audience, especially the younger demographic, and an ability to craft compelling dialogue and visual narratives. The Scriptwriter will work closely with our creative team to produce high-quality scripts that align with the brand's vision and messaging.

An ad film, often referred to as a commercial or TV commercial, is a concise, visually compelling, and persuasive video advertisement designed to promote a product, service, or brand. These short films, typically ranging from a few seconds to a couple of minutes in length, are a cornerstone of modern advertising and marketing. The primary objective of an ad film is to capture the viewer’s attention, convey a clear and persuasive message, and create a lasting impression that drives consumer action. Ad films are a critical component of advertising campaigns and are employed across various media platforms, including television, cinema, and digital channels, to reach and engage diverse target audiences.
 
The significance of ad films in the realm of advertising and marketing cannot be overstated. These short videos offer numerous advantages, including the ability to reach a wide and diverse audience, build brand awareness and recognition, engage viewers with powerful visual and auditory elements, boost sales and revenue, refine messaging through the constraints of brevity, and unleash creativity and innovation. Ad films excel in reaching a broad audience, and they can be tailored to specific demographics, making them an efficient means of conveying messages to a large and varied public.
 
Through their captivating narratives and visually appealing content, ad films play a pivotal role in creating and enhancing brand awareness and recognition, ensuring that consumers remember and identify the product or service in question. Furthermore, ad films have the capacity to evoke emotions and leave a lasting impression, making them more memorable than text-based advertisements. The persuasive nature of ad films extends to their ability to drive sales and increase revenue by effectively communicating the value and benefits of the product or service. Creating ad films requires a profound exercise in effective communication, as condensing a message into a short timeframe demands precision in messaging, making it more impactful and memorable. Lastly, ad films offer a platform for boundless creativity and innovation, as marketers and filmmakers continually push the boundaries to craft captivating and memorable advertisements that stand out in a crowded advertising landscape.
 
Key characteristics of ad films include their narrative structure, visual appeal, use of sound and music, concise duration, and the necessity for a clear and compelling message. Effective storytelling is a fundamental element, as ad films often incorporate a compelling narrative to engage viewers emotionally and intellectually. Visual elements such as cinematography, animation, graphics, and special effects are meticulously crafted to capture the audience’s attention and create a visually stimulating experience. Sound design, including music and sound effects, sets the tone, conveys emotion, and enhances the overall impact of the advertisement. Ad films are brief by design, ensuring they maintain the viewer’s attention in a fast-paced media landscape. Furthermore, they must effectively and concisely communicate the benefits, features, or brand identity of the product or service being promoted, emphasizing clarity in messaging.
 
Ad films represent a dynamic and vital component of the modern advertising landscape. They leverage storytelling, visuals, sound, and brevity to engage and persuade audiences, while also serving as a potent tool for building brand awareness, driving sales, and effectively communicating messages. Ad films are the result of a collaborative effort involving creative professionals that is continually evolving to meet the demands of a changing media and consumer landscape.
