Company: Meclusions Studio
Location: Andheri East, Mumbai Experience: Fresher to 3 Years Candidates: Mumbai / Mumbai Metropolitan Region ONLY
ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Meclusions Studio is developing a new digital streaming and content platform focused on discovering, preserving and presenting the stories, culture, traditions, people and lesser-explored narratives of Bharat through high-quality digital content.
Hindustan ki Desi Kahaniyaan — High Production Quality ke tadke ke saath.
We are looking for a curious, intelligent and highly resourceful Research & Content Development Executive who can help us discover stories and transform information into engaging content.
This is not a conventional desk-research job.
You will potentially work across Research + Story Discovery + Content Development + Junior Scriptwriting + Fact-Checking, making this an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to enter the world of Film, Television, OTT and Digital Content.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
RESEARCH
- Research historical, cultural, spiritual, social and contemporary subjects
- Gather information from books, archives, publications, credible websites and other sources
- Identify interesting people, places, events and stories
- Organise research into usable production notes
STORY SCOUTING This is a particularly key part of the role.
You will constantly look for:
- Untold or lesser-known stories
- Interesting personalities
- Remarkable locations
- Temples, heritage sites and cultural traditions
- Historical events
- Local legends and oral histories
- Human-interest stories
- Stories suitable for documentaries, interviews and episodic content
Your job is to sometimes walk into the office and say: “I found a story. We should make this.”
CONTENT DEVELOPMENT
Convert research into practical content ideas:
Research → Idea → Story Angle → Treatment → Episode Concept
You may help develop
- Documentary concepts
- Interview topics
- Episode ideas
- Short-form content
- Educational / cultural segments
- Animated story concepts
- Digital series concepts
- Research dossiers for the Director / Writer
JUNIOR SCRIPT DEVELOPMENT You will assist senior writers / directors with:
- Story outlines
- Episode structures
- Narration drafts
- Interview questions
- Research-based scripts
- Voice-over material
- Scene descriptions
- Script references and supporting information
You don't have to be an accomplished screenwriter. We are looking for someone who can write clearly, structure information logically and gradually learn professional script development.
FACT-CHECKING
Accuracy is extremely important.
You will be expected to:
- Verify dates, names, locations and historical claims
- Cross-check information using multiple credible sources
- Separate established facts from legends, traditions and interpretations
- Maintain source references
- Flag information that cannot be independently verified
- Help prevent incorrect information from reaching production
WHO CAN APPLY?
We welcome
- Freshers
- 1–3 years experienced researchers / content writers
- Mass Communication / Journalism / History / Literature / Indology / Cultural Studies graduates
- Scriptwriting and film-school graduates
- Content writers and journalists
- Self-taught researchers and storytellers
- Candidates with strong general knowledge and exceptional curiosity
Academic qualifications are helpful, but intellectual curiosity and research ability matter greatly.
SKILLS WE VALUE
You should have
- Excellent internet research ability
- Strong reading and comprehension skills
- Good Hindi and English communication
- Strong written English and/or Hindi
- Ability to distinguish reliable information from questionable sources
- Good storytelling instinct
- Attention to detail
- Ability to organise large amounts of information
- Curiosity about Bharat's history, culture and society
- Willingness to learn filmmaking and OTT content development
Knowledge of Sanskrit, Gujarati or other Indian languages can be an added advantage.
THE IDEAL PERSON
We are looking for someone who is naturally curious.
Someone who can spend an afternoon researching one subject and suddenly discover:
a forgotten personality → an unusual location → an incredible historical event → a documentary idea.
If you enjoy reading, investigating, asking questions, discovering unusual stories and then explaining them clearly, you may fit this role extremely well.
WHAT YOU GET
- Work on original OTT, documentary and digital content
- Opportunity to discover stories that can actually become productions
- Exposure to professional research-to-screen workflows
- Experience in documentary, interview and episodic content development
- Opportunity to contribute to scripts and story concepts
- Portfolio / professional credits where applicable
- Direct exposure to experienced Film, Television, Animation and VFX professionals
- Opportunity to grow with our content platform
You will learn how an idea develops from: Research → Story → Treatment → Script → Production → Edit → Final Content
