We were thrilled to be represented at the Burgas Film Festival by our wonderful colleague, Simona Theoharova, who hosted a bilingual e-TALENTA presentation there on Wednesday the 19th of July.

The audience was a mixture of industry professionals, including casting directors, directors, actors and actresses. Simona’s presentation introduced the platform and provided insight on how important an online presence is in today’s ever-changing international film industry.

She also made a point of specifying how an actress or actor can present themselves online in a comprehensive and efficient way, even if they are not represented by an agency – as is the case for the majority of talent in Bulgaria.

We received some lovely feedback from audience members and the festival team, who praised Simona’s charisma, preparedness and her vast knowledge of online casting and how to make the most of an online presence on e-TALENTA.

We also discovered how much interest there is from actors and actresses to see how casting directors use the platform and how their profiles look to them.

To celebrate the launch of e-TALENTA in Bulgaria and to encourage Bulgarian talent to present themselves with detailed and complete profiles, we are currently offering them a year of free PRO membership – offer ends on the 21st of August.

If you’re a Bulgarian actress or actor, you can sign up to the special offer here: https://www.e-talenta.eu/bg/special-burgas-2023/

If you’re a Bulgarian casting director, producer or director, Simona will soon be hosting a webinar in Bulgarian – most likely in September. Please get in touch with us at info@e-talenta.eu if you would like to register your interest in attending.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Emil Ovanesov, Antoniya Tsinova and the entire Burgas Film Festival team (Veselin Gerenov, Ilker Savaskurt, Iliyan Emanuilov, Kiril Peychev)!
