Earn Extra Income as a Casting Director
You know what makes a self-tape work because you've watched thousands of them. You know what catches your eye, what makes you stop scrolling, and what makes you put someone on the callback list. That knowledge is exactly what performers are looking for when they prepare for auditions. Pronto Me™ lets you offer paid feedback on self-tapes and audition material, turning your casting expertise into a flexible side income.
Why Casting Director Feedback Is So Valued
Performers spend a lot of time working with coaches on their technique, but they rarely get to hear what the person on the other side of the table actually thinks. That's what makes casting director feedback different. You're not teaching them how to act. You're telling them how their work lands in the context of an actual casting process. Does their energy match the role? Are they making choices that stand out, or are they blending in with every other submission? Is their self-tape technically good enough, or is the framing, lighting, or sound working against them? These are things performers can't evaluate on their own, and most coaches can't speak to from experience. You can.
How It Works for You
Performers submit their self-tapes on the platform. You get notified, watch the tape when you have time, and record your feedback as a voice memo or video. Then you submit it and move on. No live calls, no scheduling, no back and forth. You set your price, your turnaround time, and how many tapes you want to accept at a time. The platform takes care of payments and invoicing. Most reviews take 10 to 15 minutes. It's a straightforward way to earn between projects or alongside your regular casting work.
What You Can Offer
Your feedback naturally covers things that other reviewers can't: how castable someone is for specific types of roles, whether their self-tape is technically up to standard, how their choices compare to what you typically see in submissions, and what they could do differently to stand out. You can also give practical advice on things like tape quality, reader choice, and how to frame different types of auditions. Some casting directors also share general tips about the industry: what casting processes look like from the inside, how decisions are made, and what performers often get wrong about how casting works.
What Performers Are Looking For
Performers who book casting director feedback usually want a reality check. They've been working on their audition material with a coach and want to know if it's actually working from a casting perspective. Or they've been submitting tapes without getting callbacks and want to understand why. They're not looking for a lesson. They want honest, specific observations from someone who makes decisions for a living. That's you.
How Online Feedback Works
A performer submits a link to their self-tape or audition recording, along with context about the role. You receive it in your dashboard, watch the tape, and record your notes. Submit through the platform and the performer gets a secure link to your feedback. The whole thing is asynchronous. If you offer iteration rounds, the performer can revise their tape and submit again for a follow-up.
