MYSTAGEPRO - What it is -

One of the biggest issues for entertainers across the world is visibility and availability.

Busy producers and entertainment industry job providers increasingly accept online submissions for their available job opportunities.

They accept recommendations and are now casting people on the strength of their ability to provide a complete online profile with recent video showreels and audio demos, headshots and CV.

The vast majority of performers and creatives in the entertainment world are kept totally busy just trying to pay their rent and work out how to access a way into their next job.

Most people probably do not have a lot of experience in managing web sites which can deliver a total 360 degree view of who they are, what they do, how good they are or how to get hold of them instantly.

The additional headaches and expense involved in buying a domain name, managing a site, paying for hosting costs, arranging updates and simply contacting the web manager, make it very difficult realistically to maintain an up-to-date service. This facility has certainly been far out of the reach of most who are still at the bottom of the food-chain as far as career ladder, pay-scales and available spare time and income are concerned.

http://www.mystagepro.com has been specifically designed to enable ANYONE, with absolutely NO previous experience in working with the web, to BUILD THEIR OWN VIDEO/SHOWREEL professional networking site in less than 25 minutes from SIGN-UP.

Crucially they can then have it maintained and hosted 24/7/365- for less than 1 dollar/pound/euro a month!

Our engines for Profiles, cover every kind of performer and creative including teachers, coaches, companies and individuals from all of the different international entertainment sectors, including the recording industry.

This includes opera singers, dancers from classical to music theatre, teachers, directors, choreographers and film makers.

The One-Click services let you instantly upload movie clips, audio tracks and headshots in any format, upload and update you complete CV profile - hourly if you need to, write extensive career profiles and embed your agents web address and link all of this content to any other place on the internet where you have a presence.

The advantages to casting directors, producers, employers or even agents interested in offering representation are many.

Casting Directors can contact mystagepro and allow us to upload their casting requirements immediately, to selected profiles. Profilers can e-mail back immediately their complete Micro web-site profile which opens instantly as www.mystagepro.Myname.

To prevent inappropriate profiles and under-qualified performers and creatives inundating specific job postings, mystagepro operates a screening service.

This disables profiles with insufficient professional experience or qualifications submitting themselves inappropriately, thus saving Casting Directors and production companies large amounts of wasted screening time and resources.

The service for Job providers in entirely free and merely requires sending mystagepro an email with their casting requirements. They can also use the internal search engines to make their own shortlists without posting a job.

For professional entertainers and creative personnel, mystagepro provides an instant, totally functional, rich content web-site facility which costs you less than 1 dollar a month for everything and an extra £2 per month for the Castings Enabled Profile, less than £3 per month total- NOTHING more.

* No hosting headaches
* No web design costs
* No ongoing maintenance and updating costs
* No expensive Casting News and Industry Job breakdown subscriptions services to pay for any more

In effect, as extensive and relevant interactive WEBSITE as YOU the Profiler wants, decides to have and is qualified to use.

In real terms and if you were to cost out the actual and time costs inherent in a DIY version versus what we provide, this would probably amount to an average cost of £50 per month and would only enable a limited amount of the functions compared to the mystagepro offer.

These costs do not include the extra average £20 per month for subscriptions to belong to even the most basic of professional recruitment information sites and publications

We have tried to think of everything someone in the entertainment industry might require, by having on our board of advisers, top professional directors, casting directors, event managers, producers, agents and performers.

Our relationship with a number of the universal video delivery engines such as BLINKX means that your showreels will also appear throughout the internet thereby creating the almost miraculous ability for YOU an individual performer and creative, competing as you have to with hundreds of thousands of other professionals, to appear in SEARCH ENGINES with exactly the same amount of value and status as some of the biggest organisations in the world.

In the background, mystagepro also spends a great deal of time ensuring that the site as a whole and therefore YOU by implication, are placed at the top of the attention processes of the people who might be able to give you a JOB.

Why so cheap and yet so extensive?

The age of open source programming has shattered the previous costs of writing and access to original programming languages and software, the availability of bandwidth has enabled fast delivery of hi-quality and reliable video resources if built effectively and the availability of valuable news and insight online, if you know where and how to find it, have all contributed to massively driving down the costs of design, maintenance, editorial, hosting and delivery of our site, thereby reducing on-costs to the end users.

* There is nothing on the web with similar functionality or such an extensive international reach.
* There is no-one else who is spending the time mystagepro spends in sourcing the best editorial content relevant to the international entertainment professionals in so many different areas of "the business".
* We have so far not found ONE SINGLE competitor in this sector of the online world who gets even close to our cost to our customers.

This is why we think that we genuinely can begin to ask you the entertainment industry professional to think of us as THE GO-TO service.

If you want to be seen, noticed and employed in the entertainment business anywhere in the world, you cannot do without www.mystagepro.com.

Profilers bring the content, http://www.mystagepro.com delivers it precisely to where its need to be, at a cost anyone can afford, in a way that the real decision makers, directors, producers and casting directors understand, recognise and utilise effectively.
