Print Breakdowns
Casting Workbook provides a secure and exclusive online service to the casting industry and has many valuable and time saving features for photographers. Print breakdowns can be typed online or offline 24 hours a day and instantly distributed to one or more model or talent agencies of your choice. Agencies must be qualified to join by either being members of recognized organizations or by providing letters of reference from the industry.
Model agency submissions of photos, comp and z cards can be requested by hard copy or electronically as required. Electronic submissions arrive and can be quickly sorted. Selection shortlists can be saved for future reference or jobs.
Search Engine
Our search engine is a robust tool that provides a quick name search or can be used for detailed model agency roster, ethnicity, gender, region and physical characteristic searches. Comp and z cards can be pulled up and printed in color if necessary.
ePackage - (Patent Pending)
Allowing any Casting Workbook member to courier "same day" packages using their online materials for immediate delivery in key cities, ePackage will revolutionize workflow.
With a few mouse clicks, a client in any city can order local courier delivery, in key cities, of any electronic materials stored on Casting Workbook. This allows, for example, an agent in Toronto to send a clients headshot and resume and DVD copy of their demo reel to a Casting Direct in Los Angeles in less than 3 hours at a rate less than a traditional courier.
Now Appearing - (Patent Pending)
NOW APPEARING is a "TV guide" designed for virtually every type of venue that offers casting professionals a way to promote or track an actor or model’s career. This unique software is tied into Casting Workbook’s breakdown service allowing this guide to display credits and certain show details for viewers.
Agents and Casting pros can now put actors on “watch lists” for instant email and SMS notification whenever they appear in any venue type.
Actors and their agents can now enter stage, theatrical and video releases, magazine covers, showcases, television shows, billboards, personal appearances, etc. Represented talent and their agents can post their appearances and leave tickets at the “willcall booth” for casting and production executives. Agents receive an automatic “roster appearances” list that tells them when and where their actors are appearing. Non represented actors can post appearances and “show off” their talent to prospective agents and casting pros alike.
