Be sure to save your comp card which should be used to apply to castings uploaded on your profile.

- 03A composite card, also referred to as a “comp card” is a models or actors resume and includes 5 photos as well as stats, measurements and contact information. We provide our talent with a digital and printable comp card as part of our service. The digital composite card can also be emailed to casting directors, photographers or any industry professional through a talent’s profile in one easy step.

- 05Castings that match your profile will automatically appear upon successfully logging in. To submit to a casting, click the “Apply Here” button under the project details; this will automatically populate with your email address to allow you to contact the casting client with your submission. Attach your comp card when applying to castings. You should first upload 5 photographs, generate a comp card and download to your phone or computer. If you are waiting on a test shoot, you should upload general photographs in the meantime. If your test shoot is completed, you should use your new photographs on your profile. It is important to login and submit to castings matches consistently. This increases your chance of success.
- 06A casting match is an ‘open to the public’ notice discovered through a local or national publication or website, available as a match on your Latitude profile. We refer to these as “Casting Matches” which are both paid and non-paid local opportunities for both modeling and acting. Casting matches are located on your Latitude profile and require frequent submissions to increase the chance for a call-back audition.
- 07Be sure to fully read the details on the casting notice. If there is an address and time specified, it is recommended to attend the casting call early. Keep clothing simple with neutral colors. Fitted jeans, and a white, fitted top are always best. Keep hair away from face.
- 08Unless specific details on what to bring are posted, it is recommended to always bring a printed photograph or comp card to a casting call.
- 09If you are under 18, it is fine, and often required to bring one parent or guardian with you. It is not recommended to attend with a guest if you are over 18 years old.
- 10A video audition is just that, an audition taped on video! More frequently, especially for out of state castings, video auditions are being requested rather than in person. To make a video audition, you should film it in a room clear of distractions. Typically a script is provided to film the scene. It is always best to slate before recording. “Slating” is essentially a short introduction and consists of saying your full name, location and title of the project you are preforming. Using your phone to record is perfectly fine. For tips on how to submit a self-tape audition, click here.
- 11If you cannot attend a Casting Match, don’t worry! You always can pick and choose the Castings you wish to attend depending on your schedule.
- 12It is important for to login at least twice a week to check and submit to new casting matches. Latitude will not remind you when there are new project updates, so logging in and submitting out is the best way to find projects. Since castings are updated constantly for different talent, you will not receive a reminder every time a new match is on your profile. We recommend picking days (ex. every Monday and Friday) to submit out. Look beyond the pinned castings and submit to everything on your profile.
- 13In this industry the client has the right to select the talent that best suits the project. Ultimately, the client makes the final selection. It very important that talent follow a routine and submit to casting posts as they appear; this increases your chance of landing a callback or audition.
- 14Yay! It's exciting to finally get contacted from a castings. The first thing to do is reach out to us directly to verify the project and we could steer you in the right direction. Second, wait to see what the casting entails. Since castings are from third parties, they typically will follow up with any details. Remember, never accept a check prior, wire money or speak to a casting through applications like WhatAPP or others when booking a project. A talent only gets paid once they complete the role in person. Look out for red flags here.

- 16Nope, if you are waiting on professional photography, use standard photographs on your digital comp card.
- 17A photography test shoot is a way to start or build up a portfolio. If you have a complimentary test shoot scheduled, watch the 60-second preparation video here.
- 18No, casting calls posted on the platform are from publicly-sourced third parties and should be independently verified. Look out for casting red flag examples here. Some Common Tips Include: Deal ONLY with people you can meet in person. Never accept advanced payments, and those transactions involving “trusting you with the funds” and paying a representative back a portion of the money received. Never wire money through MONEY GRAM, WESTERN UNION, or any other wire service. – Do NOT accept a cashier's check or a check sent or given to you as payment for a job or role you did not complete in person.
- 19Anytime you change your look, you should update the photographs on your comp card. Not all photographs have to be professional. Since your portfolio is digital, you are able to upload photographs on demand and create your comp card to use for submission.
