As mentioned last week, we recently updated to version 0.2 of Stonehenge Casting. It’s updated a number of fields, which is good, but that does mean some of you have your Stage Name blank.

Why does this matter? Well, all the actors have their display name as their Stage Name (e.g. Screen Name).

This affects more actors than you might think about. If your full name is “Robert E. Actor” as far as the IRS is concerned, but you go by Bob Actor on your acting resume, “Bob Actor” is your stage name.

With an update we’ve made with the latest version of Stonehenge Casting (v0.2), you can correct this in less than a minute (in fact, it might take longer to read this than to do it):

  1. Log into Stonehenge Casting
  2. Go to the “My Profile” tab
  3. Click on the “Basic Information” page
  4. For the question “Is your stage/screen name different?,” select “yes.” The fields will become highlighted and blank, ready for editing.
  5. Now, for the question “Is your stage/screen name different?,” select “no.” The fields will auto-populate your legal name and become de-selected.

It’s that’s simple — and it means producers will be able to find you that much quicker.

We hope you continue to find Stonehenge Casting useful.
