Find out how casting sees your work. Every week Castability gives you new scenes to film. Record one on your phone, submit it, and an established casting director scores your work alongside every other actor who filmed the same scene. You see where you placed, how you scored, and what to work on next. New members get 2 weeks free. HOW IT WORKS • Pick a scene. New original scenes go live every week. Each is about 90 seconds, written in the style of TV and film you know, across drama, comedy, thriller, procedural, horror and more. • Film it. Record in the app with the teleprompter and in-app reader, or upload a take from your camera roll. Save up to three takes and submit your best. • Get scored. After the scene closes, an established casting director scores your work. • Read your report: your placement in the scene, your overall Castability score, your scores for Technique, Believability and Creativity, and the "What Worked" and "Things to think about" tags from casting. Casting may also add an optional short note. WHAT YOU GET • Scores from established casting directors. • Your data over time: your strongest genres and character types, and your trend in every metric. • The Gallery: watch winning tapes and see what casting chose. • The Castability List: see where your scores rank. • A daily practice quiz that sharpens how you read a script. • Points and achievements as you keep filming. WHO SCORES YOUR WORK Every casting director who scores on Castability has either worked at Director or Associate level for a studio, network or production company, or has cast principal roles in film, TV or theatre for at least 100 weeks in the last five years. Your report doesn't name who scored you, so the focus stays on your work. YOUR TAPES ARE YOURS TO USE Every scene is an original script, so you can post your tapes and use them in your reel. BUILT BY ACTORS, FOR ACTORS Castability is an actor-run company. We built it to give every actor, everywhere, a clear path to discover their potential.
