The Future of Casting

Audition management without the spreadsheets

Every casting director has a graveyard of Excel files named'shortlist_final_v3_REAL.xlsx'. Time to move on.

The casting workflow hasn't changed in 20 years. Collect submissions somehow (WhatsApp, email, walk-ins). Enter them in a spreadsheet. Share it around. Get notes back on a different spreadsheet. Try to merge them. Lose track. Start over.

It gets worse with multiple stakeholders. The director wants to see everyone. The producer wants to see the top 10. The AD needs availability dates. The costume designer needs measurements. Everyone wants a different view of the same data, and nobody wants to look at your spreadsheet.

There's no reason this should be this painful. Every other industry moved past tracking things in email attachments years ago. Casting just never had a proper tool built for it, so here we are.

My associate used to spend half her time updating spreadsheets. Now she spends that time actually reviewing talent. The spreadsheets are gone.
