Built for working actors & real casting teams

Find roles.
Get cast.
Stay in control.

Spotlight connects real actors and real casting professionals — no AI-generated “talent,” no marketplace noise. Just clean tools for finding roles, sharing self-tapes, and tracking interest in your work.

Early access: we’re starting with a small group so we can keep things thoughtful and human.

Our promise Spotlight will never use AI to replace actors, writers, or crew. We only use AI behind the scenes to help code and support the platform — not to take anyone’s job.

For actors

Build a clean professional presence, send tailored submissions, and see when casting is actually paying attention — without wading through chaos.

Actors

A profile that works like a mini site

Centralize your headshots, self-tapes, credits, and resume in one place that’s built specifically for casting, not for scrolling.

  • Upload multiple headshots and self-tapes.
  • Use a builder-style resume that prints cleanly.
  • Reuse cover letters and tailor them per role.
Casting & production

Shortlists and self-tapes that stay organized

Browse applications by role, skim headshots fast, and dive into self-tapes without losing track of who you liked and why.

  • Filter by project + role with a dedicated Applications tab.
  • Shortlist and re-rank talent as you go.
  • Message actors directly from applications when you’re ready.

How it works

We’re starting focused: one clear flow for actors, one for casting. Simple enough for a first-time user, strong enough for real productions.

Step 1

Create your account

Choose whether you’re an actor or casting. Actors build a profile; casting teams set up projects and roles.

Step 2

Submit & review applications

Actors apply with selected headshots, self-tapes, and cover letters. Casting reviews everything from a dedicated Applications dashboard.

Step 3

Message, shortlist, and book

When someone stands out, casting can shortlist and start a direct conversation — keeping safety and clear boundaries in mind.
