For PRODUCERS and CASTING DIRECTORS !
Our philosophy in designing this web site is to provide you (the user) with tools that are simple and easy to use, yet extremely complete and powerful. We've also designed the database to be a comprehensive "global village" (to coin a phrase) of actors and actresses. You are accessing a true database, not a loosely connected series of pages. Any information you request is generated "on demand". All our efforts are devoted to making this the Screenactors' Database. Consequently, you won't see any useless, cutesy graphics or worthless flashing banners.
What you will see is a valuable "tool of the trade".
What is SCREENACTORS.COM ?
Put very simply, it's a resume service for actors and actresses - but it's much more than that, since it offers services for producers, directors, agents, AND actors.
Face it. Now that the Internet is a reality, the days of "paper publication" are numbered. Why bother with large bulky catalogs or volumes of postage-stamp-size headshots (that may be out of date by the time you get them) when you can tap into the World Wide Web and search for an actor or actress with the press of a button?
Why should a producer, director, or casting director pay for these large (sometimes out-of-date) books on a quarterly basis when they can log in FREE anytime (24 hours per day) and get current information and photos that are updated by the actor or actress whenever their resume or photos change. All of this maintained in a full-featured database. If a producer or director is looking for that "next star" or someone with that "special look" or just a room full of "background", it's all here RIGHT NOW. And it doesn't matter whether the producer / director is in Hollywood or India, or whether the actor is in San Francisco or London - the database is GLOBAL.
What's in it for PRODUCERS & CASTING DIRECTORS ?
Let's say you're trying to fill a role with the following requirements:
Female; Asian; 30-35 years; 250 pounds; 6' 2"; Blonde Hair;
working local to Toronto, Ontario CANADA;
who speaks German; juggles; and plays the harp.Yes, it's a little far-fetched but humor us.
You could make several phone calls putting the word out and hoping that you're talking to the right people, OR, you could tap into www.screenactors.com and search the database in less time than it takes to make one phone call. And, you can do it at 3 a.m., if you wish - FREE.
Or, how about those 1,000 extras you need at Dodger Stadium next Tuesday at noon??? Log in FREE to www.screenactors.com and issue a targeted EMAIL call to all talent local to Los Angeles who are willing to work as extras.
You've got a role that you need to fill FAST and you've got to get the SIDES out now so that actors can prep for the audition. You can post the SIDES on www.screenactors.com immediately and even limit their access to union members only if you wish - FREE. Actors (or their agents) can then retrieve the SIDES anytime they want to.
Is there any cost to use these services ?
None, nada, zero, zip. These services are absolutely FREE for producers, directors, and casting directors. There is no catch or hidden backend agenda. We want you to turn first to www.screenactors.com for all your casting reference needs and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to do that.
To protect the actors posted here and the ultimate legitimacy of this site, we DO ask that you (or someone from your office) take five minutes to fill out our online PRODUCER / CASTING DIRECTOR Registration Form. This registration information is not for public use in any way and will never be posted on this site. It will allow us to assign your office a private LOGIN / PASSWORD combination. With this password, you will be able to upload SIDES and send targeted bulk casting notices to anyone or everyone in our entire database via EMAIL. Registration is not necessary to simply search the database.
Take five minutes to register now. There is no obligation and we will EMAIL your LOGIN / PASSWORD combination within 24 hours. That's all there is to it.
