Showcasing Talent: Introducing vShowcards

What started as a dream and project on paper has become a force to be reckoned with in the casting world, vShowcards is fast becoming the place to be seen and has garnered attention from casting agents, directors, actors, and more as the team takes their passion for acting and all things media, and offers up a new portal for talent.  

Building on their own experiences as working actors, the team behind vShowcards has gone one step further than the average casting site and brings back the personal to the process with their social media presence on Twitter being part of the discussion, supporting, and promoting each other, whilst talking about their own frustrations within the business giving the whole thing a more family feeling, taking the isolation out being an actor and putting the emphasis on friendly support that is refreshing for talent and has in short order created a series of questions about their status in the market, a positive move that has taken them from outside the bubble to a companion and contender.  Talent is being seen in a new form and it is to vShowcards credit that they are building on the successes of the initial launch with a host of new elements to be revealed soon. 

Looking to reach out to creatives across the spectrum, vShowcards is the epitome of a new wave that has been steadily building across the film and TV realm as digital platforms become more common, the need for artists and creatives has increased with the traditional sources losing ground to newcomers like vShowcards whose dedication to their clients, focus, drive, and passion, has shown them to be open to new ideas and avenues with an eye for detail, the sites entire ethos is built on showcasing and supporting people versus collecting names.

There is a raft of digital production houses that are looking at the site and seeing the potential for productions built entirely with vShowcard people, an accomplishment that is new for many and shows the scope and talents of the people already in place.  

Leading the way and taking on the market with a fresh perspective vShowcards is more than just a casting and crew site, it is the future of the industry’s new wave and a force to be reckoned with.

Moonworkers Payroll, HR Management and Talent Sphere

When it comes to the financial side of being a freelancer or a company it can be difficult to keep track and ensure that your availability is visible to potential clients and requires a great deal of work which could be filtered to key areas of marketing, which is why the team behind Moonworkers came up with the new platform designed to streamline the process of corporate pay and freelance contracting. 

Built around a two-part process of a diary service and a financial platform for payment and invoicing which can be split into two key areas: 

Corporate: 

  • Payroll accuracy: More easily pay workers accurately and on time with the continuous

    calculation of net pay.

  • HR Management: Sign e-contracts, check right to work in the UK, enable auto-enrolment,

  • approve worker's timesheets, that enable auto-generation of payslips/ invoices depending

  • on the employment type.

  • Talent acquisition and retention: Find, recruit and rate the best talent with an end-to-end

    talent management solution.

  • Mitigate compliance risk: Moonworkers helps enable you to maintain compliance with HR requirements by automating and incorporating several legislative and regulatory requirements through flexible configuration options.

Freelancer/Talent: 

  • Showcase your brand profile: Showcase your personal brand, easily link your social media profiles and self-rate your caliber.

  • Get connected with trusted employers: You can easily check reviews and ratings of

  • employers. You can also chat with the previous workers of employers to get feedback.

  • Get paid on-time, every-time: Get job offers, negotiate and ensure getting paid on-time.

  • Increase your take-home pay: We do not charge the companies any recruitment fees, hence your take-home pay increases.

  • Manage all your documents in one place: You can track your timesheets, generate invoices and so on.

  • payslips and access HMRC's statutory documents within the app.

The beauty of this is the simplicity and marketing potential that for those in the creative fields allows us to control our diary, advertise and handle potential clients from a central point.  Corporate clients can also use this to streamline their payroll, browse and book staff on a per requirement basis and offers a more open playing field with all levels and budgets catered to allowing employers to find the best candidates from a wide pool with minimal fuss.
