In the film industry auditions are now video taped and uploaded to a website called Cast It Systems. The service lets the casting director upload a digitally recorded audition, match it with a résumé and other addenda and add a critique (“not her best,” “he’s a favor to the producer”). Then they can share the results through access to a password-protected site, very privately and instantly, with interested parties. Think of it as an actors list on steroids. Or, from an actor’s point of view, as an online community that lets a casting director, producer, director and studio or network executive — each with a different level of access, so nobody but the casting professional gets everything — talk confidentially and efficiently behind your back.

Cast It is the leading technology products and services company exclusively focused on the casting process for the entertainment industry. Cast It is used on 90% of studio films produced and is used everyday by over 600 casting offices worldwide. Their mission is to provide, plan and/or implement technology solutions that increase efficiency, productivity and creativity in the casting process for studios, production companies and casting offices. Over the past five years, we have worked closely with studio executives, producers, directors, casting directors and actors developing solutions for a variety of situations.

By leveraging proprietary database and Internet technology, Cast It allows for the “distribution” of video clips and relevant information to multiple parties in a timely, secure and cost effective manner. Cast It is designed to allow disparate casting teams to publish or upload actor and project information and video clips to a centralized database system that, in conjunction with maintaining that data, also manages the accessibility of that data to directors, producers, studio executives and other users associated with those projects. Actors can subscribe to this data base Cast It Talent.
