How CastHub works: talent, companies, and the people who follow them

Three kinds of account, one shared goal: getting the right face in front of the right production — with nobody standing in the middle.

CastHub is a listing platform for casting. Actors and models publish a professional card; producers, agencies and brands search that pool and get in touch directly. We are not an agency: we never represent you, never negotiate for you, and never take a share of work you get.

Three account types

When you sign up you choose what you are. The choice shapes what you see and what you can do.

Talent

Actors, models, fashion models and brand faces. A talent account is free. You build a comp card — height, measurements, shoe and clothing size, roles, portfolio photos and a link to your showreel — and you apply to castings. Nothing about a talent account costs money to create, and there is no signing-on fee.

Company

Producers, agencies and brands. A company account searches the talent pool, filters by role, location, age range and measurements, keeps people on a shortlist and writes to them. Once a company passes ID verification it can also request access to a locked album.

Follower

People who want to browse and support, without being cast themselves. Followers can see public showcase profiles and give support to talent who opted in. A follower account cannot post castings and cannot apply to them.

What a company sees, and what stays private

Not every visitor sees the same profile. Your photos, name, roles and city are what the public part of the platform shows. Measurements, sizes, portfolio detail and contact information are the professional part of your card, and they are reserved for verified company accounts. That line is deliberate: the data a casting director needs is not data that should sit in the open for anyone to scrape.

From profile to first message

  1. Create a free account and pick what you are.
  2. Build your card: stats, sizes, photos, showreel link.
  3. Get found — companies browse and filter, or you apply to an open casting yourself.
  4. Talk directly on CastHub. No middleman, no commission.

What CastHub does not do

We do not promise work. We do not represent talent, and we do not handle payments — if a company books you, the fee and the terms are agreed between the two of you. Anything you read on this platform that sounds like a guarantee of a job is not coming from us.

Fifty-two languages

Every screen, field and filter is translated, so an actor in one country and a producer in another each read the platform in their own language. The measurements on your card are written the way agencies expect them, which means they stay readable across borders.
