How to Set Up Your Rosterwoods Profile to Guarantee Gigs

## Your Profile Is Your First Impression When a production manager or casting director opens your CineCard on Rosterwoods, you have about 30 seconds to prove you're worth their time. ### The complete checklist 1. **Headshot** — Clear, professional, recent photo 2. **Department tags** — Be specific (Sound Mix, Gaffer, Focus Puller, not just “Camera” or “Crew”) 3. **Location** — Chennai, Coimbatore, etc. 4. **Rate** — At least a range so productions know if you're in their budget 5. **Availability** — Keep this updated. Productions filter by it. 6. **3–5 verified credits** — These are your proof. Add them with call sheets or production references. 7. **Skills / tools** — What gear do you own? What software do you use? 8. **Showreel or portfolio link** — One clean link. Not 10. ### What separates profiles that get booked The crew who get consistent work on Rosterwoods treat their CineCard like a live document. They update it after every gig, add new credits immediately, and keep their availability current. Your profile is your storefront. Keep it open.
