Submit headshots for casting

1. It costs nothing to apply or join, and you never pay anything out of pocket. Open Call earns only when you're awarded a booking. After your first booking is confirmed, a one-time placement fee of 20% of that job's pay, capped at $75, comes out of that pay. Some brands cover the fee themselves, and then you pay nothing. There are no upfront fees and no ongoing commission, and after your first job you're free to sign with any agency. If you're dismissed without cause within 4 weeks, the fee is refunded. We never charge for photos, classes or registration.
2. We book your first job; after that you're free to sign with any agency. No exclusivity and no ongoing commission.
3. Open Call does not share your personal information. The only things we share with brands, agencies or casting partners are your headshots and the details relevant to a prospective role (such as market, look, age range, height, general location and skills), identified by your stage name and Open Call ID. We never share your real name, email, phone number, address, date of birth or any other personal details with brands or outside parties. We don't sell your information. If you're booked, any contact happens through Open Call, and your contact details go to a client only with your express permission for that specific booking. We never mass-send, blast or sell your photos or details to lists of companies. Every submission is reviewed individually by a person. Your headshots and role details are shared only in response to a specific casting request your profile fits, and only with that client. If you separately opt in to our talent directory, vetted brands and agencies we've approved may also browse your stage name, ID, headshots and role details there. That's off unless you tick the box, and you can turn it off any time. Optional sex/gender and ethnicity/heritage information is used only as role-relevant casting criteria when a brief requires it, and is never shared together with your identity. Limited service providers (such as Cloudflare, which hosts this site and its database) process data only to run the site. We may disclose information if required by law. Submissions are stored securely and deleted after 12 months if you're not selected, or on request.
4. Adults 18+ only. Under-18 submissions are deleted.
5. No placement without a signed written agreement. We recommend independent legal review before signing.
6. No guarantee of a booking, auditions or work. We may decline any submission without giving a reason.
7. Open Call acts as an intermediary between talent and clients and isn't the employer of record unless stated in writing.
8. Open Call is not a licensed or union-franchised talent agency and doesn't book work in states that require a license (e.g. CA, NY) unless properly licensed there.
9. Directory listing is optional; you can opt out or ask for removal at any time.
10. This is general information, not legal advice.
