Today marks a huge milestone for us.

After 11 fantastic years, Extra People is moving on from Entertainment Partners.

Over the past year, we’ve listened closely to your feedback, sat down with our clients, and studied best-in-class technology across global industries to build what we believe is the most advanced casting platform in the world.

The best productions deserve the best technology to match.

That’s why we’re bringing every piece of the casting puzzle into one place to help power the future of the UK film and television industry.

What happens now?

Today we begin the transition to our new platform.

There are 2 options for you today:
1. Create your new profile using the link below now.
or
2. Wait for a sign up link that will be sent over the next few weeks.

As part of our move from Entertainment Partners, artist data won’t carry over automatically. Think of this as the perfect opportunity for a fresh refresh: set up your new profile with your most up-to-date look and sizes so you’re ready for upcoming casting calls. We’ve made the whole process super quick and simple.

CREATE PROFILE

What about our current profiles?

Your old Extra People profile will still exist on the Entertainment Partners platform for a limited time period. This will enable you to access on-going bookings, previous remittances and outstanding payments.

Should you have any pre-existing bookings on the Entertainment Partners platform, they will likely continue on there until our migration is complete.

Rest assured that your project manager will be in touch shortly with instructions about the transition if necessary.

Platform Migrations FAQs

Yes, creating a new profile on our new casting platform is necessary for all future collaboration with Extra People.
No, you will need to create a new Extra People profile from scratch.
Current artists will receive a link to open their new profile on the new platform to find very basic information has already been entered. But all photos, skills and other casting information will need to be uploaded.
All artists should fill out their casting profiles to the best of their abilities to boost casting chances.
The project manager handling your current bookings will be in touch with you directly to clarify. If you are currently booked on the old platform, these bookings will likely be processed via the Entertainment Partners platform. Future bookings however, will likely be processed on our new platform.
Those who are still awaiting outcomes to recent Availability Enquiries will receive updates for those enquiries on the old Entertainment Partners platform.
All new availability enquiries, however, will be sent from our new platform. There will be several weeks where you will need to maintain access to both Extra People profiles on the old Entertainment Partners platform and our new platform until the transition has fully completed.
Any outstanding payments you are owed through Extra People bookings will be processed through the Entertainment Partners platform and not on our new platform. The new platform launch will not cause delays to these outstanding payments - they will continue as normal.
Not immediately but eventually yes.
To enable access to recent bookings, outstanding payments and previous payment remittances, your old Extra People profile will remain accessible to you on the Entertainment Partners platform for 3 months.
We encourage downloading all payment remittances from your old Extra People profile soon though for bookkeeping and tax reasons in case Entertainment Partners lock access at some undisclosed date further into the future.

But please be clear we will no longer be casting via Entertainment Partners. If you want to get new bookings, you must create a new profile on our new platform.
No. We will not be mass-deleting any artist data that exists on old Extra People profiles on the Entertainment Partners platform.
Extra People artists are welcome to delete any sensitive data on their old profile in their own time.
Your Entertainment Partners profile is completely independent from Extra People and will continue to be visible to all other agencies on the Entertainment Partners platform, as usual. For this reason, your Ent.P profile will need to be updated independently of your new Extra People profile on our new platform.
