Self-Tape Feedback and Video Evaluation

Upload a self-tape and get a structured review of the take: the performance choices, the framing, the lighting, the sound, and the slate. You get notes you can act on, not a score with no explanation.

It is for actors who tape alone and have no one to tell them whether the read landed or whether the tape itself is quietly costing them the job.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload your take

    Send the file you were about to submit, slate included if you have one.

  2. 2

    Get the review

    You receive notes on performance, technical quality, and what a casting office sees first.

  3. 3

    Fix the two things that matter

    The notes are ranked, so you know what to re-tape and what to leave alone.

  4. 4

    Re-tape and submit

    Shoot the fix, compare it to the first take, and send the better one.

What you get

  • Performance notes on choices, stakes, and where the read flattens
  • Framing and eyeline check against standard self-tape expectations
  • Lighting and background assessment
  • Audio clarity and level review
  • Slate feedback, including pacing and tone
  • A ranked fix list so you know what to re-shoot first

Frequently asked questions

What kind of feedback do I actually get?

+

Specific notes tied to moments in your take — where the read goes general, where the framing pulls focus, where the sound gets thin — plus what to change before you submit.

How long is the review?

+

You get the evaluation back in minutes, which is the point. Most self-tape deadlines do not allow for a week of waiting.

Will this tell me if my tape is good enough to send?

+

It tells you what a casting office notices first and whether anything technical is undercutting the performance. The submit call is still yours.

Is my video kept private?

+

Your uploads are yours. Content is never used to train models, and you can delete your material from your account.

Does this cost anything to try?

+

You start with 7 free credits when you sign up with an email address — no card. Each run of a tool spends credits, because each one calls a paid AI or voice service. Browsing casting calls and building a profile are free regardless.
