Casting Websites Advice

[WinterNight]

First off I just wanted to thank everyone. As a performing child, my mum would, in the past, come on this site looking for information, helpful tips and things for me. She never had an account, but found the information here very useful. And as I've grown older and become more in charge of my life, I've found this place helpful too! So just wanted to say on behalf of my mum and I, thanks for providing such a great, friendly, safe place!

Now onto my question... so far I am a member of starnow, mandy and have just started subscribing to castweb.
I just wanted to know if there are any similar places? And if so, what people's opinions are on them?
I've heard of PCR, I'm interested, but is it legit?
I cant get onto spotlight or CCP yet, but its something I am very much working towards.

Thanks for you time

Talent circle is another free site and like Mandy predominantly student films, but a good place to look if you need experience and you can look local to your area.

Thank you. Just checked it out. Surprised I didnt stumble across it before!

PCR is legit but very expensive for what it is I prefer castweb

I agree with Luckymum about PCR. Before the internet and the explosion of "instant" information, PCR was a moderately useful but expensive (paper based) subscription service that was posted out - that idea seems incredibly old-fashioned now! I haven't looked at it for a long time, but my recollection is that it was mostly gossip about what was "in production" with some genuine theatre castings and lots of other profit share and unpaid/student opportunities.
