Casting Directors Submissions and Online Festival Registrations by HollywoodPrize
For those of you that haven't noticed, Online Promotions Group / HollywoodPrize.com has recently launched several new services in recent months in an effort to become the premiere lead generation, entertainment marketing, database management solution.
CASTING DIRECTORS
Film / TV / Broadway / Theatre Online Casting is now completely online and confidential. During the beta trial , these services are FREE to use.
How does this work?
Its simple.
• Create a FREE Client / Sponsor Account on HollywoodPrize.com
• Once approved, click on MyCastings and Create/Edit Roles. At which point, the system will assign a breakdown submission number (aka Electronic Ticket number).
• Display the electronic ticket number in your breakdown (preferably at the end where you mention where to send the submissions. The breakdown should say:
If submitting through HollywoodPrize.com, please use breakdown code "HP-10001" (i.e. whichever code your production is assigned by the system).
• From there, only authorized Managers, Agents and Actors/Actresses (who do self-submissions) will submit their materials to you from the HollywoodPrize system. And yes - its completely confidential. Your contact details will NOT be revealed to anyone you don't want to.
• You will not receive any $pam from the Internet from unauthorized submissions (unless somehow an unauthorized party gets a hold of your breakdowns).
• What to expect? Well, each artist can submit his/her headshot, resume, online reel (via YouTube - if available) and Manager, Agent, and/or Artist's Rep details as well as his/her height, weight, speaking accent and best of all - Artist "pitch" - i.e. the reasons why this artist should be considered for an audition for this role
• You can also track the rate at which you offer the artist (if you offer the part).
• Similarly, you can record if you have paid the Manager, Agent or Artist for this role by changing the status from unpaid to paid.
• Once cast, you can move the role into Casting History and begin work on the Casting the next role.
• You can always refer back to your Casting History if you need to refresh your memory on who and what rate you cast a certain role. This data will be captured in the database
• MS Excel Data Export - Yes, if you use Mozilla / Firefox, you can easily export an MS Excel file (.csv format) of all of your casting submissions

• Electronic Ticketing!
Track your Contestants off-line materials as they are sent in the mail to your office via HollywoodPrize's Electronic Ticketing System. All artists are emailed an ET and given specialized instructions that you create. ETs are also captured in the same spreadsheet as your Contestant profile data and each Contestant will receive ONE (1) ET for each Festival you run. And best of all, you can notify whether you have rec'd the artist's materials by checking one simple "Rec'd" checkbox. No more hassle phone calls from artists to check if their materials have been rec'd. They simply log in to their accounts and check to see if you have rec'd the materials.
• Complete Confidentiality!
HollywoodPrize will not sell, rent or offer your confidential Contestant leads list with any other vendor. Contestants may decide, on their own, however, to share their data with other Sponsors (i.e. Festival organizers) if they so choose.
• Create A Viral Campaign!
Each Festival offers you the ability to create a Refer A Friend loyalty program. Contestants (i.e. Fillmmakers and/or Musicians) can refer up to 10 colleagues at once right on the registration page. Each Referral is also rewarded with ONE (1) point that would be historically tracked in HollywoodPrize.
• RSS Podcasts!
Stream a sample of your Festival content in RSS and Podcast this content to Contestants. This includes Net Video, Audio files (MP3, Windows Media, Quicktime), documents (.pdf, .txt, .doc, etc.) etc.
• Click to Purchase Links!
Link your Festival page to your purchase page and track sales of all of your products, events, etc. Of course, HollywoodPrize will help you to communicate to Contestants that they will not increase their odds of being selected for your Festival by purchasing your products, services, etc. Contestants will always have this option if you offer it.
• Fundraisers / Raffles!
Are you running a fundraiser and/or raffle for a charity? Do you need HollywoodPrize to collect check or credit card information from your donors for you? Let HollywoodPrize collect the data and you can process the payment.
• Manage / Add Link Partners!
HollywoodPrize is the only Sweepstakes Contest portal that offers you the ability to manage Link Partners for each of your Festival pages. By placing your Link Partner's 90x90 button on your Festival page, you can offer webmasters reciprocal traffic to their websites while tracking which sites deliver the highest and most targeted leads. For an additional fee, Online Promotions Group will contact webmasters at targeted websites and barter on your behalf to drive traffic to your festival page via banners, buttons, text links, etc.
