Get paid to watch TV shows and movies!

Why?

Well, every year, hundreds of thousands of new titles are added to Netflix’s huge content library. All of these titles need to be reviewed, tagged and categorized.

So from time to time, they hire a whole bunch of people to basically binge watch shows so they can review, rate, tag and categorize them.

They have hired people known as Netflix taggers in the past to do similar work.

To qualify, you have to know a little about the entertainment industry. You have to be able to summarize the shows and movies you watch, then rate and tag them.

Who qualifies for this position?

There are of course a few qualification criteria as well.

According to the company, the qualifications are:

• Passionate about movies and TV with a deep knowledge of the entertainment industry
• Ability to distinguish nuances within different movie and TV genres
• Ability to distill the essence of a movie/show and share findings in a concise manner

Responsibilities

As a Netflix Editorial Analyst, you will be responsible for a few things.

Your responsibilities include:

Watching, researching, rating, annotate and writing analyses for movie and TV content.

Reviewing content metadata for quality and accuracy.

Basically, you are going to get paid to review movies, shows, and features and categorize them according to their genres.

Needless to say, you must be deadline oriented and complete all the projects on time and efficiently.

Your turn

So, what do you think?

Would you wanna binge watch TV to make money?

I would love to hear especially from those of you that have done Netflix tagging before. How was your experience? How was the pay and would you do it again?

For many people, the idea of getting paid to watch movies is something straight out of the movies!

But as I have shown you in my earlier post about a site that pays you to watch TV shows, there are also companies that will pay you to watch movies.

Here are 4 ways you can do that as well.

1. Get Paid to Watch Movie Trailers & Commercials

Watching movie trailers and videos through survey sites is also another way in which you can get paid.

These types of research market sites are helping the movie companies to decide which trailers are of interest to people, how good or bad these trailers seem to be and the like before they put this out there.

These types of companies not only deal with movies, but they also do studies on foods and other products that people use in their everyday life. Which means you have opportunities to participate in other studies that are sent to your email, or you can log on to the site and look for studies in which you qualify for to earn even more money.

Getting paid to take surveys is also something in which you can participate in.

Here are a few paid research market companies that hire people:

2. Movie Counting in Theaters

This position is usually called a “movie counter”.

In reality, the person is not watching the movie itself, but watching those who buy tickets and attend the movie. Yet, they do get the benefit of getting paid to sit in the movie theater.

This is perhaps the most common way in which a person can get paid for the movies they watch.

This position was started when it was found that many theaters were keeping the money from tickets that were purchased, instead of sending the money to the production company of the movie. The production companies caught onto this, and started to send in people who were there to count the number of watchers who went into the auditorium.

Those who do this are often assigned a specific movie theater for a couple of days per week. These people show up to the theater 15 minutes or so before the movie starts, and simply count those people who walk into the auditorium for the movie. Usually, theaters are aware of the person being there, thus they try to work with the person as much as possible.

You are responsible for the count, so you need to ensure that this is your first priority. But, you still get to watch the movie.

Those who are interested in this type of employment will need to go through a contracting agency, as producers often hire from these companies rather than hiring the individual.

Most companies who have positions for these people are market research companies. These companies are responsible for finding feedback, gathering information from customers and the like. With the movie counter position, the company is responsible for ensuring that the producer gets the money that they deserve for the tickets sold.

There are not companies who state that they have movie counting positions specifically. As most of these jobs come from the market research or the mystery shopping companies.

You can sign up with these companies for free, and simply wait for the assignment to come through. In the mean time, they have offers that include shopping and dining and giving feedback on the experience.

A few examples of the most mystery shopper and market research companies that hire are:

3. Get Paid to Watch Netflix

Watching movies at home is also an avenue in which someone can look into to get paid. Netflix does offer the opportunity for a person to sit at home and watch movies, while making money.

There are so many people that Netflix pays, whom they call “taggers”, that are meant to watch ever new movie added and tag these appropriately.

These taggers will watch 5 to 12 movies per week, and then figure out which category these movies belong in. Taggers usually get paid on average $300 per week in order to do this.

It is not easy to become a tagger for Netflix, as the company hardly ever advertises for these positions and they do not hire very often.

You have to rely on luck in order to get one of these positions, and it helps to know someone who already works for Netflix.

4. Get Paid to Review Movies

You can get paid to become a movie reviewer for magazines, newspapers and other forms of media. Kind of like Roger Ebert and Standley Kaufmann do.

It is harder to find these types of jobs with a TV show, as you have to be excellent and make a name for yourself on your reviews. It is easier to write for a magazine, newspaper or even a blog about the movies that our critique.

To look for these types of jobs, contact media outlets to see if they are looking for someone to do this.

You can also Google and find the blogs or other media outlets that publish these movie reviews.

Before you contact anyone about these jobs though, it is important to make sure that you write a review and attach this as a sample. You want the person to hire you, thus you need to show them what you can do.

Bottom Line

For those who love movies, and love watching them, getting paid for watching movies can be an extremely easy and fun way of making some extra cash.

That said, the difficult part is finding sites and companies that are willing to pay you for watching movies. And only a select few are lucky enough to net such opportunities, which explains why you rarely hear about folks who do this.
