casting.az
Azerbaijan's first online casting platform, connecting actors with directors, producers, and brands through searchable talent profiles.
Casting.az is Azerbaijan's first dedicated casting platform, connecting actors and aspiring performers with directors, producers, and brands in one place. The platform lets talent build detailed profiles — with physical attributes, skills, languages, and portfolio media — while casting professionals search and filter through a growing database of registered actors across Azerbaijan, Turkey, and Uzbekistan. Built for a market that previously ran on personal networks and scattered contacts, casting.az turns talent discovery into a structured, searchable process.
We designed and built the platform end-to-end, from actor and casting-director user flows to the underlying data architecture. Key elements included a granular multi-criteria search and filtering system (covering physical traits, skills, languages, and content categories), phone-based OTP authentication, multilingual support across Azerbaijani, Turkish, and other languages, and a ratings and profile-ranking system to surface top talent. We also built out the admin and content layer — including a blog and FAQ system — so the client's team can manage the platform independently going forward.
