The 2022 Minion Tryouts: Write for Dramabeans!
by DB Staff
Dramaland has been growing so fast it can give you whiplash — and sometimes it does. Try as we might, we haven’t had the capacity to cover all the fantastic dramas out there. If you’re passionate about dramas and would like to be a part of our crazy team, we want to hear from you. Right now we are looking for… weecappers!
What is a weecap?
Shorter than a full recap, and easier on the wrists, a weecap is a once-a-week post that covers both drama episodes that week. This kind of writing requires the ability to watch 2+ hours of a show and then be able to pull out the main points, give a quick retelling, and add a dash of personality, wit, and analysis as you go.
Submit an entry to the 2022 minion tryouts:
- Write a weecap of Episodes 1 and 2 of one of the following dramas: Our Beloved Summer, Dal-li and Gamjatang, or The Veil.
- This is a tryout post (and yes we’ve covered these dramas), so pretend you’re writing the first weecap of a show that’s hot off the presses and highly anticipated. In other words, the Beanies are refreshing the page every three minutes or so, waiting for your post.
- Make sure your weecap is proofread and ready to publish. (We won’t be publishing them, but we want to see a finished product.)
- Word count: 1,000-1,500 words
- Screencaps not required
- Email your weecap to hello @ dramabeans.com. We’ll accept Word or text documents, PDFs, Google docs, or weecaps written into the body of the email.
- Finally, have fun with it! We don’t do this for the pomp and paycheck, but because dramaland has wooed our hearts, and we love to think about, write about, and talk about dramas.
Deadline: Thursday, March 31, 2022
Wondering what comes next? If we like what we read, we’ll take you on as a trainee (the road to future minion-hood), give you an assignment, and help you get your footing. During training — whether you come on board as a permanent staff writer or not — you’ll receive a small fee per published post.
