TRAILER PARK GROUP
Art Machine is a division of Trailer Park Group. We are seeking a full-time Copywriter with 2-5 years experience. Located in the heart of Hollywood, we have a fun, hip and fast-paced culture. We are seeking a talented copywriter with a can-do attitude to join us. Reporting directly to the President of Art Machine, this position will serve multiple creative teams, so the ability to work quickly and collaboratively with others is a must.
Art Machine is a non-traditional agency with a mix of brand and entertainment work. Our mission is to help brands build fans. Fan-centric campaigns are critical, but they must have a strong concept that compels fans to participate with our brands, rather than just hoping they do.
Before applying for the job, please see our website (www.ArtMachine.com) and note the two sides of our unique personality. Our entertainment side is straight print (movie posters, packaging, etc.), so that work is 100% print. Our brand side is weighted toward TV lately, so that work is TV heavy. Digital is less overall. There is some social. So, total work done by writers is lately as follows: (40% print, 45% TV, 10% social, and 5% digital)
Much of the work we present to clients is based on writers' concepts, so it is not the traditional 'writer paired with an Art Director' model. As such, you'll need to come up with your own concepts, write them out, pull your own scrap, and sell your ideas internally. We have a tight-knit group of 3 writers that includes one of the principals of the business. Results trump everything, and vanity creative (e.g. stuff that looks good in your portfolio but does nothing to build the brand or drive revenue) is typically not even presented to clients.
We are competitive with the outside world, but collaborative internally. We don't like to lose, and our win-rate in the past two years reflects that. When we look at portfolios, we'll want to see campaigns, but also be prepared to show heavy writing samples of your work (e.g. we want to see your transactional lines - the stuff in the trenches everyday, not just the big ideas).
Developing a working knowledge of our brands is a must: Kumho Tire, Twentieth Century Fox, The LA Zoo, Warner Brothers, AMD, HBO, Universal Theme Parks, Loopnet, and more. Note - you will work on a variety of projects, vs. being implanted on one account. Last note - the less sexy clients are just as important as the big ones. This is not just a line. It's a philosophy. We know there's lot of phases of people's careers where certain accounts matter and we respect that. But here, you will need to treat tiny less exciting client as you treat big exposure client.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
College degree highly recommended, if not required. The foundation of all work must be great writing and thinking. Knowledge of digital and social is a requirement. Speed is a requirement. Everyone who comes here - consistently reports that they have never worked under faster deadlines. Lastly, in terms of your experience, it is more important that you think well, write fast, and work smart than have worked at some famous agency.
WORKING AT TRAILER PARK GROUP
We believe that great work is only possible with great people. We want to find people who believe in our mission, vision and values and feel inspired to grow while they're here. Our approach to flexibility is called ''Work Your Way'', You have flexibility to work remotely or in the office. Work where you can do your best work.
