Google Forms is a general-purpose form builder. Casting42 is built for Casting Professionals from day one. Signup forms, self audition tapes, sedcards, availability checkers, talent proposals, talent update reminders, booking confirmations its simply all there.

Ready to use from day one!

Include video's, self audition tapes & talent profiles specifically tailored to your client project. All in a single unified workflow. We will give you 10 years of casting experience as a default you can build from there, saving you a ton of time.

Signup talent, Create client presentations

Casting42 simplifies talent submissions, proposal creation, and client presentations, providing a fast turnaround and polished presentations.

We dont stop at the signup

Can you still use a three-year-old submission in your future castings? Probably not? Form builders like Google Forms don't allow for talents updating their profile in a secure fashion. Casting42 will make sure you never have to manually update headshots and new photo's.

Functionality:

Google Forms: Allows you to create simple forms and start receiving submissions, while this is better than having talents submit their profile via email there still is a ton of room for furthering your workflow.

Casting42 offers a Google Forms alternative with many advantages over generic form builders. Casting42 is
  • Specifically designed for the casting industry,
  • Providing tailored fields for talent profiles, including sizes, experience, skills, and media uploads, eliminating the need to build these from scratch.
  • The platform facilitates essential casting workflows like availability checks, self-tape auditions, and secure sharing of talent proposals with clients, directly within the system.
Casting42 offers a Google Forms alternative built for the Casting & talent management industry. This streamlines the process and eliminates the need to combine disparate tools like spreadsheets, email, and file-sharing services. Casting42's focus on data privacy with GDPR compliance tools and dedicated talent portals for profile updates further distinguishes it from basic form builders, ensuring data security and enabling talent self-service.
Casting42's Google Forms alternative

Supports multiple languages and allows for full customization of the talent profile, including adding, removing, renaming, reordering, and resizing fields.

This flexibility extends to the signup form, where you can tailor which fields appear, including making fields required. Furthermore, you can control which data is shared with external stakeholders (clients, producers, etc.) via guest access. For castings with unique requirements, casting-specific fields can be added. These casting-specific fields appear in the general database as well, but only appear on the signup form for that particular casting. Finally, talent can update their own profiles using the Talent Portal to maintain up-to-date information.
