Three Easy Ways to get Acting Fast!

Create personal profile web pages to list your detailed description, contact information, skills and even your full résumé. Having your profile online is the easiest, most cost effective way to market yourself and the very best way to make sure your contact information is up to date. Your private profile web page can be accessed by talent agents, managers, casting directors, producers and potential employers through our talent search engine while your public profile web page is accessible via your own unique web address or URL. This is especially valuable as you can easily direct potential employers to your profile web page. You can even print your URL on your résumé, business cards, postcards, and flyers.

Use our file manager to save and store your documents and text files online. Your files are attached to your personal profile web pages so they are easily available to casting professionals. You can save multiple files so you'll have plenty of room and opportunity to include your résumé, cover letter, list of references and other similar documents.

Easily upload, save and store your photographs using our photo manager. Your photo gallery, which can be accessed through your profile web pages, can display a number of photos. Since accounts are accessible 24 hours a day, you may freely add, remove or replace any of your photographs whenever you want.

Design a properly formatted, industry recognized résumé instantly and easily by completing a few simple forms. When finalized, your résumé will be available to print or as part of your profile web pages. With your résumé online, you'll always have access to the most up-to-date copy of your ever evolving résumé.
