Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 6, 2005 -- http://www.ACTORSandCREW.com is pleased to announce the implementation of advanced search features for those in search of entertainment professionals, world-wide. Specific and targeted searches allow employers in the business to quickly locate exactly the talent they’re looking to hire, for both above-the-line and below-the-line professionals.
This search engine, unique to http://www.ACTORSandCREW.com, allows for regional searches by distance from a particular zip-code, by personal information including gender, age, height, weight, hair color, eye color, ethnicity, physique, facial hair type, general look, occupation, union affiliations, dialects, dance-types, costumes owned and project types worked on Also indexed are schools attended, hometown, current residence, languages spoken, licenses and permits, project history, weight, sports played, musical proficiency, and many other areas of professional proclivity.
“If you don’t have an agent, you have to be able to get out there easily or be able to be found easily, and usually that involves a lot of time and resources.” says Phil Williams, Co-Founder and CEO of http://www.ACTORSandCREW.com, “Some industry folks have their own websites, but unless people are searching for them exactly, they’ll never be found. Some people spend lots of money and time on sending out DVD’s of their audio or video reels to producers and directors, or headshots and postcards to casting directors, with little impact because there’s no personal relationship behind the effort."
“A lot of people in representation feel it’s critical for their clients to go out and network on their own, in addition to the meetings their agents set up,” “The idea for the site was simply inspired by the need for industry professionals to expand their social and professional networking circles, because that more than anything is what facilitates opportunity.”
“ACTORSandCREW allows industry professionals to succeed by being easily accessible in a vast searchable database and helps them build relationships by allowing them to create a personal profile – a profile that lets you upload your screenplays, your audio reels, your video assets; it’s not just a resume. This application allows you to start a dialogue with others in the industry.”
The old Hollywood adage “it’s who you know” has never been closer to the mark. The name of the game in Hollywood from casting to producing and financing, is relationships. With its new global search capabilities, ACTORSandCREW facilitates them.
