One way is to go to the main page of many shows here at Viki and collect the name of many Spanish moderators. You can find them in two places:
- if you click the name of the team, it’s a link, it will take you to a page with all the names.
- If you look at the so called “cover page”, which is just a looooong picture with info on the series, the names of the actors etc, at the end there is a table with the names of all the team members, including the “Other language moderators”. See here:
Usually the names are links, they are clickable. But for now you don’t want to click them. Just copy paste the usernames of many Spanish moderators from many shows into a document and save them.
Then go to you inbox, click on “Compose” and on the “To” field, copy paste the names of the moderators, separated by a comma.
moderator1, moderator2, moderator3,
etc.
Underneath write a nice message in Spanish. Not only a couple of lines, but some more, to show your command of the language. Be careful with things like spelling and punctuation. Re-read it carefully. Save it on the same document where you have saved the moderator names, because you’ll want to send it again.
I recommend sending in batches of no more than 5 people. Because if more than one responds and offers you work, you’ll be obliged to say no to some, which will look a bit bad, or you’ll be overwhelmed with more projects than you can handle.
Send to the first 5 and wait for a few days. If none responds, send to the next five. And so on.
I am advising you NOT to ask to be on the team of an upcoming on-air show. No matter how experienced you are, usually a moderator will want to put someone new on an older show, to let them acclimatize and learn the Viki formatting conventions and the moderator’s own way of work. So it’s probable that you’ll be given, at first, a project that you don’t really like that much. It’s been like this for all of us. So be patient, and in a little while, if you’re good, you’ll be able to pick and choose your projects.
Good luck!
