Casting Agency launches Soho Artistes

2 Cast 4, developers of advanced software for casting teams, has announced the launch of a new company called Soho Artistes.
Set up as the online 'shop front' for 2 Cast 4's extensive talent database, Soho Artistes will manage a substantial list of talent.
Frank Temple, Managing Director, 2 Cast 4, said: "We have launched Soho Artistes because we understand the need to find the right person at the right time. We are constantly adding to our list and, with the aid of the 2 Cast 4 technology, we are now able to manage an amazingly large number of artists as well as provide an online environment to make the process of selecting talent as painless as possible."
Utilising one of the most advanced forms of technology for this field, Soho Artistes gives clients - such as, casting directors, directors and producers - the ability to search the company's exclusive database for a suitable artist, in a matter of seconds.
2 Cast 4 say that the unique technology enables users to specify height, size, gender, whether they dance, are licensed to drive or fly, can play an instrument, have a sporting interest or special ability - even simply the 'type' of person required for the project - and then provide a choice of the talent available on the dates required.
At present, Soho Artistes has a database of over 200 actors, some 700 extras and are receiving in excess of 60 new applications per month.
