Tom Percival, Editor at The Digital Fix, is looking for pitches: Are you a skilled writer from an underrepresented community? Are you obsessed with film, movies, and SEO? At The Digital Fix, we’re currently looking for more freelancers for underrepresented communities to undertake guide work on an assigned basis. Examples include:
- ‘Everything we know’ guides, where you collate/give readers all the information they need on upcoming movies/TV series: https://www.thedigitalfix.com/mayor-of-kingstown/season-2-release-date
- 'How to watch’ guides on upcoming cinematic and streaming releases: https://www.thedigitalfix.com/avatar/2-how-to-watch
- Cast and character guides on some of the stars of the best TV series and movies: https://www.thedigitalfix.com/euphoria/characters-ranked
- Guides answering some of the most pressing questions about trending TV shows and movies: https://www.thedigitalfix.com/the-white-lotus/who-died-in-season-2
Recent data shows that 80% of journalists come from an upper-class background and that a further 87% identify as coming from a white ethnic group (NCTJ, 2022). This is why it is important to us to do our part to support social mobility and help amplify underrepresented voices. A full rates sheet will be provided upon enquiry, but if this is of interest, please contact tom.percival@thedigitalfix.com. We’re a small but mighty team, so please don’t feel discouraged if it takes us some time to reply! We're also always accepting feature pitches that provide a fresh perspective or hot take on movies and TV series, but again, please don't feel discouraged if it takes us some time to reply to you! For more information on freelancing for The Digital Fix outside of assigned SEO work, please refer to the pitching guide on our website: https://www.thedigitalfix.com/pitch-to-us
Reports indicate that this opportunity will pay a £75-£200 for 600-2000 words. It is recommended that you discuss the rate(s) with the editor/employer prior to commencing work.
