The URL castingaudition.com claims to be a free casting services notice. If you search the auditions and find an applicable one, it asks you to enter your email to be notified about the casting. Doing so will generate either a server error or it will open a pop-up to another site called exploretalent.com that asks you to register.
This site portends to post your info as an actor online and even asks lots of detailed questions in the member account set up but when you actually try to use the site to access any actual contact info for a casting notice, you either get all sorts of server errors OR it asks you to upgrade to a paid account to access the contact info for the audition. Basically, these two sites (castingaudition.com & exploretalent.com) just keep sending you around and around their server with all sorts of problems (i.E. They claim to allow you to upload a resume in MS Word format but the upoad doesn't work) and in the end, the auditions are just a list of projects but there is no way to contact the person actually doing the casting whether or not you are a registered user.
Eager actors would do well to avoid these sites. I'm sure had I paid for a membership, it still would have delivered nothing because the pay membership offers to submit your info for you for pertinent projects. Given that the server can't even accept uploaded data, I doubt they submit anything to anybody.
