Photo Upload

Before you upload your pictures:

• If possible, please select professional headshots and poses for your primary and secondary images. The next best thing is to use a good quality headshot photo of yourself.
• Do not use web cam photos as the quality is poor.
• Do not use group photos (the casting director won't know which person is you!)
• Do not use photos in which your face is obstructed by an object (hats, hands, sunglasses, etc.)
• Do not use photos containing nudity of any kind.
• Do not use photos containing animals.
• Make sure that you use a current photo.

Your Picture Has Been Reviewed

If you received an email labeled "Your Picture Has Been Reviewed," it is referring to an image that you uploaded and was rejected for one reason or another. More than likely the image was corrupted. This means that the upload may have timed out before the image was sent to us and therefore is not viewable.

Other reasons for rejection:

• Photo contains nudity.
• Photo may be too small or incorrectly cropped.
• Photo contains people other than yourself.
• Photo is irrelevant, of someone else, or is an inanimate object.

Casting Calendar

Your casting calendar is one of the most effective tools on your Explore Talent website. As a Pro Member, you can use your calendar to keep up-to-date on all the auditions Explore Talent has submitted you for.

The calendar is also how you will view audition notices for open calls and submit your profile to casting directors. Open audition notices will be clearly marked at the top of each submission. If no address, phone number, or instruction for response are provided, then you do not need to do anything. The casting director or photographer will call you when they wish to see you or to schedule your audition.

The auditions listed on your casting calendar notifies you that your preferences/model information matches a casting or project on file with us. (NOTE: You must be a Pro Member to get any further information about the casting or project.)

(Pro Members) On a date that you were submitted for an audition, you will see the word "Submission". This is to let you know that your image, either hard copy or electronic, was submitted to a casting director for consideration.

Click on the word "Submission" and you will get all the project information available to you including the name and type of project, union status, rate and all roles that are being cast. When applicable, you'll also get audition dates, shoot dates, location, and production company information.

There are three different types of auditions you will find on your calendar:

• Request Audition -- Your profile is submitted to a casting director for consideration. If they are interested in calling you for an audition, they will contact us, requesting you. From there, we will contact you.
  
  
• Self-Response Notification -- When you click on "Submission" you will get information about a project in the casting process. In this case, you will receive an email address or phone number to contact the casting office directly, should you be interested in the project. This will be clearly stated on the casting notice.
  
  
• Open Call -- An address and time will be provided for you to attend the audition. You may participate in the audition merely by showing up at the appropriate place and time, as guided.

Each time our team of in-house booking and submission representatives submit you to a casting, it appears automatically on your casting calendar. This allows you to constantly monitor your profile performance in real-time. The days that are marked "Submission" are the days that you were submitted for castings by us.

NOTE: If you are a Pro Member and do not have any submissions on your calendar or you have not been automatically matched with a casting that matches your model information, verify that your profile contains all of your information, including: age, height, gender, etc. Also, make sure your casting preferences are updated, including the 3 markets that you are willing to travel to. You may contact the Customer Service Department at (800) 598-7500 for assistance.
