How Remote Casting Works
1. Send Audition Link
Select scenes from your script as sides. Generate a unique link and email it to actors. Each link is personalized — actors only see their sides.
2. Actor Records Self-Tape
Actor clicks the link and records video directly in the browser. No app download. No account creation. Works on phone, tablet, or laptop.
3. Review & Rate
Submissions appear in your casting dashboard. Watch videos, rate 1-5 stars, add notes, tag as Callback or Top Pick. Share with your team.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do video auditions work?
Send actors a unique audition link via email. They click the link, see only their sides, and record a self-tape video directly in their browser. No account or app required.
Do actors need an account?
No. Actors receive a one-time link that lets them record and submit without signing up. This removes friction and increases submission rates.
Can I send different sides to different actors?
Yes. Each audition link is tied to specific scenes from your script. You control exactly what each actor sees.
Which plan includes video auditions?
Video auditions are included in the Pro plan ($9.99/mo) and above.
