Casting should not have to scrub
Your reel is one long file. The scene they want is ninety seconds in and they will not go looking for it. reels.link chapters the reel you already have on Vimeo or YouTube and gives you one link to put on the resume.
$19 once. Free if you are already a Web For Actors member.
Everything they need, one click deep
Not a video page. A page about you, with the reel arranged so the relevant thirty seconds is never more than one click away.
Chapters, not a scrub bar
Every scene is a labeled marker. Click the role, the reel jumps there. They read the list the way they read a resume.
See it workingEach scene carries its credit
Role, production, company, year. The clip stops being anonymous footage and becomes a credit they can check.
See an exampleThe page around it is yours
Your name, your headshot, your website and your credits frame the player. When a scene ends, what they read next is still about you.

Paste a link, mark the scenes
reels.link drives the player through Vimeo's and YouTube's own APIs, so the file stays where it is and your view count stays with it. Nothing is re-uploaded and nothing is re-encoded.
Your credits are already in the dropdown. Attach one to a scene instead of typing it out, and the page keeps itself in step with your profile.
Feature detailsThe credit follows the scene
The chapter list is only half of it. As the reel plays, the block under the video changes with it: poster art, the production, the company, the year, and a link out to the project.
Thirty seconds in, they are not wondering what they are watching. They are reading the credit for it.

Drawn from the same fields your Web For Actors credits already carry.
Two reels, two very different jobs
A screen reel and a voice reel are read differently. Both of these are live, and both were built from nothing but a link.
Three steps, about ten minutes
And the third one you only ever do once.
Add your reel
Paste the Vimeo or YouTube link into Media, then flip the Demo Reel switch on it. That is the whole of the setup.
Mark the scenes
Under Tools, reels.link: note where a scene starts, name the role, attach the production. Order them however you want casting to meet you.
Send the link
Recut the reel next year and you re-time the chapters. The address on every resume you have ever sent still works.
One price, paid once
No monthly plan to forget about, and no fee the first time you want to change a chapter.

The questions we actually get
Anything else, write to us. A person answers.
Do I need to re-upload my reel?
No. The reel stays on Vimeo or YouTube and plays from there. We only need the link, and your view count carries on counting.
How many scenes can I mark?
As many as the reel has. One of the examples on this page runs to eight. Add, rename, re-time and delete them as often as you like.
Do I have to type my credits again?
No. Attach a scene to a production you have already entered on your Web For Actors profile and the page pulls the poster, company, year and link from it.
What happens when I recut it?
Swap the video link and re-time the chapters. Your address does not change, so nothing already sent out breaks.
Is $19 really it?
Once. Nothing renews and nothing expires. Members at Web For Actors pay nothing at all, because it is already part of the plan.
I already have a website. Why this?
A link is easier to hand over than a website. The reel page is what goes on the resume. The website is where they go next.
The rest of the toolkit
Same login, same people, one payment each. Premium at Web For Actors covers all of them.
