I will write mythology video scripts
Mythology and Historical Illustrator
About this Gig
Most mythology scripts on YouTube are a retelling of a Wikipedia page, and viewers can tell within thirty seconds.
I write the other kind: a script built around one question the viewer cannot answer, resolved at the end, with key claims backed by a source list you can put in the description.
WHAT YOU GET
- A hook written for the first fifteen seconds, not a slow introduction
- A single narrative spine - one question, one answer, no listicle padding
- Chapter breaks with estimated timecodes
- A source list (academic, museum, or primary text - not other YouTube videos)
- Pronunciation notes for non-English names
- Delivered as a plain text file, ready for your voiceover
WHAT I NEED
- Your topic
- Target length in minutes
- Your audience: general, or already familiar with the mythology
I write about Norse, Slavic, Hindu, Japanese, Greek and Celtic mythology, plus ancient history. If your topic is outside those, message me first - I will tell you honestly if I can do it well.
NOT INCLUDED: voiceover, editing, animation, thumbnail design, music, and visual descriptions.

FAQ
Can I publish it as my own?
You receive full commercial rights to use and publish the delivered script. I do not resell the same script to another buyer.
Do you use AI to write?
I use AI-assisted drafting, then edit, fact-check, and restructure the script. Key claims are checked against the listed sources.
Do you include voiceover, editing, or thumbnails?
No. This is a scriptwriting service only. Voiceover, editing, animation, music, and thumbnail design are separate services.
How do revisions work?
Revisions cover small changes within the same topic and scope. A new topic, a change of angle, or a full rewrite counts as a new order.
Do you provide sources?
Yes, a source list is included in all packages. It is a reading list for the key claims and names used, not a full academic bibliography.
Will you write about living religions?
I write about historical mythology and ancient belief. I decline topics that would caricature a living faith.
