THE SCOUT
SELF TAPES
simon max hill casting
Hi there!
If you are looking for ‘The Scout’ self-tape page, you’re in the right spot!
If you clicked here from an ad looking for Bikers with a motorcycle+sidecar license, or you’re a dancer/marching band drummer you’re in the right spot!
DEADLINE: noon, Thursday July 21 (sooner is better, though!)
Bikers and Dancers can submit as late as EOD Friday the 22nd, but please try to get your stuff to us before then!
SELF-TAPING GUIDELINES
1. Get your shotlist
2. Record your video, take your photos
3. Create an account at client.smhcasting.com
3. Send us your photos and video with the submission link below
1. SHOTLIST
Please download the appropriate pdf for your role and use it as a guide to your video before you click submit.
2. CREATE YOUR MEDIA
Follow the instructions in your .pdf to create the required media. Please follow the instructions carefully – it’s especially important that you’re uploading 4 separate files when you go to upload. The upload will fail completely if you have fewer than 4 pieces of media (slate, shot 1, shot 2, photo.)
3. CREATE AN ACCOUNT WITH US
Please fill out your measurements, if you know any of them! Wardrobe will love you for it.
4. SUBMISSION LINK
Quick FAQ about the submissions link:
If you don’t fill out all required text fields + upload all required media, your submission will be rejected by the system.
It works best with Google Chrome on a Mac. It usually works with PCs phone / tablets as well, but we haven’t tested it extensively on those platforms.
If you are submitting long videos, the upload will take minutes. You should see a little “upload progress” indicator somewhere on the page.
You should get a confirmation of upload success, either a green banner along the top or a page that says “Submission Accepted!”
