Backstage

other

Backstage lists acting jobs across film, TV, theater, and commercials, and a Neotask agent can search, filter, and apply to those listings on an actor's behalf. Rather than logging in and scrolling through postings by hand, the actor tells the agent what they're looking for, a location, a pay range, a type of role, and the agent pulls back a matching shortlist. It can also submit applications directly and keep track of what has already gone out, so nothing gets applied to twice or forgotten after submission. For actors juggling auditions alongside other work, that turns casting-site browsing into a five-minute check-in instead of a recurring chore, and keeps the list of open submissions somewhere the actor can actually reference before a callback.

Real workflows

Weekly casting sweep

An actor asks the agent every Monday to pull new commercial and theater listings in their city within their usual pay range. The agent returns a short list, the actor picks the ones worth pursuing, and the agent submits those applications the same day.

Avoiding duplicate submissions

Before applying to a new batch of film roles, the actor asks the agent to check which of the matching postings have already been applied to. The agent cross-references its submission log and only applies to the ones still open.
