Searchable Talent Directory
$30-5000 USD
Paid on delivery
I am looking to create a web-based searchable talent directory. The directory will allow for talent (ie: actors, models, etc) to create profile pages which can be searched or browsed by casting personnel.
A similar site to: [url removed, login to view]
## Deliverables
A web-based searchable talent directory.
There are 4 types of users:
**1. Talent**
**2. Casting Personnel**
**3. Agents**
**4. Public (Logged Out)**
**1. TALENT:**
Talent can create an account by choosing a username and password.
They will be redirected to PayPal for payment. On completion of payment, they will be returned to a confirmation page on the website and their account will be activated.
Once logged in, they can create and edit a profile page which will be added to the directory.
Their profile page will contain the following information provided by the user:
Name
Date of Birth
Gender
Hair Colour
Eye Colour
Height
Build
Talent Type
Status
Country
Region
Biography (text area)
Skills
Languages
Agent
Contact Person
Contact Phone
Contact Email
Main Photograph (uploaded by user)
Additional Photographs (uploaded by user)
Showreel Video (video file uploaded by user)
Voice Clip (audio file uploaded by user)
File Upload (such as .mp3, .mov, .doc)
A PIN will be generated which allows public users to view their profile with contact information.
Talent can browse or search the directory (same as public), but they CANNOT view contact details for other members without a PIN.
Talent must be able to edit the information and photos displayed on their profile page. They must also be able to change their password.
Expiry & Renewal: If payment is not received after a period of 12 months, the user's profile page will be removed from the directory. An automatic email will be sent to the user prior to the expiration date. Users can renew their account by logging in and completing payment via PayPal.
