Scoop lets studios and TV networks show their soon-to-release shows and movies to a select audience in exchange for their feedback on what they would like to have improved. The studios then pay the respondents for their time and effort.
wish I had it now
Pros:exactly what someone living in rural and remote locations nees
Cons:not ready yet for the great white NORTH
I had a GREAT experience with Scoop. They have only sent over one video to watch so far but I really enjoyed the film and the feedback process. It was fun to really think about the film in depth afterwords if it not something you do on a regular basis. I highly suggest signing up. Its a nice supprise when they send you an email asking if you will watch a movie for them!
Pros:See films easy and fun
Cons:they have only sent 1 film so far...
i'd to be invited more often.
Pros:fun, enjoyable, easy work
Cons:not enough work to do!
I think, at this point, I have gotten to see 2 - 3 movies from Scoop and while I can't recall one which ended up being a major motion picture release, the insider vibe is always pleasant. Plus, sometimes, you get a little monetary token of appreciation. Nothing big, but enough for a snack.
Pros:Opportunity to provide feedback for unreleased materials.
Cons:Opportunities are infrequent.
REALLY enjoyed the concept of seeing a movie that is variable to the final cut seen in theaters. The movie I watched was not even in final edit yet and they wanted feedback as to what to do GREAT idea
Pros:GREAT concept surely a groundbreaking idea
Cons:not nearly enough movies to test yet
I loved the last movie I watched from Scoop
Pros:First look at new films and stories
Cons:Should be offered more often to loyal reviewers like me.
I think I've watched a couple trailers and one whole movie. The frequency of new content to watch is very rare, and you'll probably not get something that you'd typically enjoy.
Another movie I tried to watch but it was unwatchable because it wasn't even finished yet.
Plus you could be asked to watch a 2 hour movie or a 1 minute trailer and they pay you the same amount (~ $7).
Pros:Interesting opportunity to watch movies/trailers before anyone else and get paid for reviewing them
Cons:Pretty rare that you'd get sent something to watch, and if you do it might be a pretty rough draft, and you only get paid a few dollars
