We're always looking for new writers to join our team. Essays featured in our magazine are 2000-2500 words long, and can be film studies or look at wider cinema culture. Our only themed issue is our "Horror special" for Halloween.
Tips for essay submission:
• We're looking for original ideas not widely covered in other publications / video essays.
• More specific ideas normally make for better essays. For example, instead of an essay on "American Westerns" - an essay on "Female characters in Modern American Westerns" would be a better scope.
• Look at our previous issues to get an idea of tone.
After submission, your idea will be reviewed and a response will be sent after a couple days. Deadlines for final essays are normally a month before the issue is published.
Our payment to writers is currently £45 (€50, $60) per essay and a copy of the magazine your essay is featured in.
