TALENT: What are Direct Link / Free Guest Submissions?
When an actor or talent discovers an open call through a direct link—such as a QR code on a physical poster or a link shared on social media platforms like Instagram—they are categorized as a Direct Link Guest. This feature allows individuals to apply for roles without the immediate need to create a permanent account or subscription.
What is a Direct Link Guest?
Normally, unregistered guests browsing the platform encounter a blurred feed that restricts access to specific role details. However, using a direct link allows a talent to bypass these restrictions for that specific role. As a Direct Link Guest, the talent can:
View the complete details of the specific role associated with the link.
Access the application portal without the immediate need to create an account.
Submit a one-time Free Guest Application by providing basic personal information, uploading necessary photos, and including a brief explanation of why they are a fit for the role.
Free Guest Application Requirements
When a talent selects the "Free Guest Submission" option, they are required to complete a one-time application form.
To ensure they can be reached, the form mandates the following information:
Full Name
Age and Gender
Current City
10-digit Phone Number (Mandatory)
Email Address (Optional)
How Guest Applicants are Notified
It is important for guest applicants to understand that their submission does not automatically create a full account. Because of this, the standard automated notification system functions differently:
No In-App Notifications: Guest talents will not receive automated system updates or push notifications.
No Dashboard Access: Guests do not have access to an internal "Submissions" tracking tab or an in-app inbox to monitor their status.
Instead, guest applicants are notified directly and manually by the Casting Director. The communication will occur using the contact information provided during the initial submission process.
