  • Customised applicant cards are automatically created for each application. 
  • Real-time audition notes enable better collaboration
  • Decisions made are captured immediately in one place and available throughout the project
  • A built-in fee recovery option, enables cost recovery or even revenue generating applications.


Turn Casting Feature On / Off

Casting is a feature that must be enabled in Project Settings before it can be used. If you can't see Casting listed in Project Settings, please contact support@lumi.media to have this feature switched on for your Organisation.


Once Casting is switched on for your Organisation, it also needs to be enabled in Project Settings. The Lumi Support team might have done this step for you.


Go to Project Settings:

1. Click your avatar on the bottom-left to open the User menu.

2. Select "Project Settings".

3. Scroll down on the Project Settings page until you see "Casting". If it's not already enabled (blue), switch it to enabled. This change will save automatically.


You will notice the Inbox camera iconwill display in the sidebar.

The Inbox is where your applicant cards will display once they have submitted their application.
