Search talent built for your format

Every creator on Vertgigs has vertical micro-content production credits. Filter by role, city, language (EN, ES, or bilingual), day rate, format experience (DramaBox, ReelShort, TikTok Series, ViX MicrO), and availability window. You will not wade through horizontal TV directors who have never shot 9:16.

Post a gig in minutes

A gig post on Vertgigs is $15 one-time, or included in the Studio plan. Fill in the role, rate, shoot dates, location, language requirements, and format spec. Your post goes live immediately and appears in filtered search results for talent matching your requirements.

Casting calls with vertical self-tape support

Post casting calls with character breakdowns and an audition format optimized for vertical self-tape (60-90 seconds is the default). Submissions arrive in your inbox with the talent's 9:16 reel attached. Callbacks can be scheduled directly through the platform. Casting call posts are $35 or included in Studio.

Shortlists and applicant management

Studio accounts can create named shortlists by project. Add talent profiles to a shortlist while searching, then compare shortlisted candidates side by side. Manage applicant status (new, reviewed, shortlisted, hired, declined) from your Studio dashboard.

Direct messaging for Studio accounts

Studio account holders can message any talent directly without a connection request. You see the talent's day rate and availability before you message. If they are booked for the next 30 days, you know that before you invest time in the conversation.

Bilingual production covered

Filter talent by language: EN only, ES only, or bilingual. Bilingual creators flag their Spanish and English fluency level on their profiles. For a CDMX shoot, you can find a bilingual director who has DramaBox credits in one search. No separate Spanish-language platform needed.
