You can submit applications to casting calls on the go using the iOS app.
You must have an active subscription to submit any applications. *However, Crew profiles are currently in beta. During this period, applying to crew specific jobs is free.
Applying to a Role
Tap on the name of the casting notice you're interested in, and scroll down to the 'Roles' section to see what roles are available for this production.
Once you have decided on which role to apply to, tap on the 'Apply Now' button by the name of the role. Alternatively, you can also tap on the 'Apply Now' button at the bottom of the screen and then select the role to navigate to the application. Both buttons accomplish the same thing - creating an application!
You have now successfully opened a draft application! Tap on the 'Edit' button by each section to curate the media you wish to include in your application.
Cover Photo
Your cover photo is the first photo that casting directors will see when they view your application. You can change which item is your cover photo by on the 'Edit' button next to the Cover Photo section of your application.
You can then see all of your uploaded photos within your Media Locker. You can either select a photo among the already uploaded photos or tap on 'Upload New' at the bottom of the screen to upload a brand new photo.
Once you are happy with your selection, tap the 'Save' button at the top of the screen.
Media
All of the public photos, videos, audio, and documents you have on your profile are automatically attached to your applications once you create a new draft.
However, if you want to add or remove any media to curate your application for the specific role you are applying to, you can click on the 'Edit' button by each media section to edit your media.
If you tap on 'Add [media]', you'll see all of your existing uploads within your Media Locker.
You can either select from one of your already uploaded media, or upload a new file by tapping on 'Upload New' at the bottom of the screen. Once you are satisfied with your changes, tap on 'Save' at the top of the screen to save your changes.
Required Assets
Please keep in mind that you must submit all of the required assets on the application. There are specific icons on the application that indicate what is required, and what is not.
A. The check icon indicates it is a required asset that you've successfully added.
B. The circle icon indicates it is a required asset that you have not yet uploaded. You need to upload a file to that section to successfully submit your application.
C. If you don't see any icon next to the section, that means it is not required by the casting director. You can still upload files to these sections, but you can also submit without including them.
If you try to submit without fulfilling all of the required assets, you will see an error message notifying you that you're missing specific required assets.
Cover Letter
Next, type in a cover letter (if required or desired). Please note that a cover letter cannot exceed 500 total characters.
You have the option to enter a new cover letter or choose from any saved templates.
If you are writing a new cover letter, you can see an option to save that cover letter as a template for future use. Tap on the slide button next to 'Save as a template', and give the template a name. Tap 'Done' to save your changes.
If you select 'Choose From Templates', you'll see a list of your already saved templates. Tap on 'Select and edit' to select one, or delete the template by tapping on the trash can icon.
Once you are satisfied with your application, tap the 'Apply Now' button at the bottom of the screen. This will submit your application.
*Note: You can also delete a draft application by tapping on the trash bin icon in the footer bar (shown above). You cannot delete an application after it has been submitted.
After you press Apply Now, you'll see a Success screen.
Updating a Submitted Application
If the casting notice has not expired yet, you can still update your application any time before the deadline.
Navigate to the 'My Applications' tab and find your application under 'Submitted'. Tap on the application to open it.
You can now make any edits you desire. The application will automatically update as you apply your changes.
*Please note that if the casting notice has expired, you can no longer edit or update your submitted application or saved drafts. The application will automatically move to the 'Archived' folder. An application being moved to the archived folder does not indicate that you've been rejected - it simply indicates you can no longer edit the application.
