How to Find Actors for your Project

There are several different ways of finding actors for your project and the method you choose depends on how much time you have to find the actors, and how much you would like us to be involved in the process.

Before beginning though, if you haven’t already, make sure you make a Casting Director profile on enCAST.

There are 3 basic options for finding actors on our site.

Option 1: Post your own Casting Notice

After you’ve logged into the site, go here to Add a Casting Notice.

Your notice will be sent out to suitable actors (i.e. the right age/gender/location, etc) and you will receive email submissions from each suitable actors with their attachments

Option 2: We pre-screen for you

Simply contact us with your actor needs and we’ll get the ball rolling.

We will post your casting to the site and then get in touch with all suitable actors (age/gender/location/type, etc) according to your needs and pre-screen them so they match your non-negotiable needs completely.

For example, suppose you need the actor to be available on certain dates, or to have a very specific look, or to put forward a self-tape for the role, etc. We can liaise with the actors to make sure they have everything in place and match your needs completely before sending them on to you.

This means your inbox won’t be cluttered with unsuitable actors.

You can then simply browse the actors and contact any you like to discuss the project directly with them.

Option 3: Search the Actors

If you know exactly what you need, you can use our Search Page to find actors who fit your criteria. On the results page you’ll be able to see the actors’ profiles and contact any which look right.

The searches can be as simple or complex as you like. For example:

  • British English speaking actors in Spain
  • Greek speaking female actors who can ride a horse
  • European based actors who have a Green Card or US Passport to work in the US
  • and so on and so on…
