Regional screen agencies, guilds, and film commissions manage thousands of crew on disconnected spreadsheets with static data, limited oversight, and no live verification. FILMD replaces the manual legwork with one unified, professional ecosystem.
The problem
Screen Yorkshire has their list. Screen Scotland has theirs. BFI Network has another. But these databases are siloed - they don't talk to each other. None of them update automatically, and none of them can tell you if the camera operator you placed last year is still working, what kit they now own, or when they are next available.
The FILMD solution
FILMD gives you a modern, always-current talent management infrastructure - built for the screen industry, not adapted from generic HR software.
One searchable, filterable pool across all regions. Real profiles with headshots, showreels, and verified credits - not rows in a spreadsheet.
Standardised, cross-regional accreditation via FILMD. Know who's verified, who's trained, who's insured - at a glance.
Live availability calendars. See who's working, who's free, and who's left the industry - updated in real-time by the talent themselves.
Know what gear your talent owns. Match crew to jobs based on both skills and kit. No more last-minute equipment scrambles.
Automatic credit history that updates as projects wrap. No more chasing CVs - see what they've done, when, and with whom.
Place talent on sets directly through the platform. Track who you've placed, where, and measure outcomes over time.
Regional talent density, placement rates, diversity data, economic impact - exportable reports ready for funders and boards.
