In 1994, years ahead of the competition, Casting Workbook was launched. Its advanced design quickly made it the preeminent online breakdown and communication package in the film and television industry. Today, Casting Workbook is the most used online breakdown service in the world, not because it was first, but because it works best. Utilizing the power of the Internet, Casting Workbook’s proprietary, communications software increases efficiency in ways that were not considered possible just a few years ago. Casting Workbook software makes casting and production tasks easier for production professionals than ever thought possible - saving valuable time and resources.
Casting Workbook's management and technical staff have deep roots in the film and television industry: they understand the possibilities of technology in the industry, and they know how to listen. Utilizing the unique insights of casting professionals, management & staff have developed software solutions for the production community, that change forever the way production specialists work. With Casting Workbook, production tasks fit neatly into one package, making tedious casting and production duties quick and painless. Industry professionals can now quickly access a vast array of resources online from virtually anywhere in the world.
Industry driven steering committees are in place and together with management, a code of ethics for use on the internet was written in 1997 to protect the rights of Casting Workbook members. Members can feel safe in the knowledge that sensitive information is secured on many levels including a password-protected environment.
