A system and method for searching and selecting a specific read of a
talent. A reel can be separated or marked to indicate individual reads.
The reads are defined using read profiles. A producer and/or agent can
perform searches and auditions on the search system on a read level by
using the unique read profiles. The search for reads can be performed
using sample voices or voices provided by a user. The auditions can be
executed in real-time and can be integrated with telephony technology.
Agent branded technology are included to provide a vehicle for the agent
to be a part of the producer-talent relationship. A Uniform Resource
Locator with a pathname containing an alias suffix is provided to direct
the business contacts to a Webpage containing biographical and contact
information and sample reads of the talent.
