What does Spotlight membership give me?
Spotlight web page
Your full professional CV plus photos and showreel will appear on www.spotlight.com where they can be viewed by casting professionals. Your casting details are fully searchable, so, for example, a casting professional could look for ‘a dancer, 25-30, based in Liverpool, who is highly experienced at ballroom'. Thousands of casting professionals locate performers online in this way.
As soon as your basic web page is live, you will be sent an email with your PIN numbers, which will allow you to access your casting details whenever you wish, to make changes, and to show your CV to others.
The Spotlight Link
As soon as your web page is live, you will also be part of The Spotlight Link, the UK’s leading casting information service. An average of 160 casting breakdowns are sent out via The Spotlight Link every week, with an average of 571 roles to be cast (based on 2006 statistics). If you have an agent, they will receive these breakdowns on your behalf and put you forward immediately for relevant roles. If you don’t have an agent, you will receive casting information directly by email and can submit your web CV in response if you are suitable.
