After adding or receiving audition videos from talent within your Cast It Project, you have the flexibility to share these videos with external users through a shareable link. Utilize either the Quick Link feature or the Email Project Videos feature to distribute your content efficiently. Both options offer similar functionality and provide the ability to tailor the viewing experience for your clients.
The shared links from Cast It are dynamic "live links," which means that any modifications you make on your end will be instantly reflected for viewers who already possess the link. These links can be copied and pasted into your own emails or sent directly through the Cast It platform, ensuring seamless communication and distribution.
