Axel, Thank you very much for your advice about imdbpro. I have been thinking about having a pro account for many years, but I could not find very clear reasons. watching your video has helped me see all the opportunities it offers and the growth it can bring to my professional career. Thanks again
Hey Axel Arzola This AlvinSkatemanFleming from Atlanta. I am a entertainer a Skate/Dancer that have also acted in couple of films , commercials and TV. That said ; I am now this year 2021 going to take it to the next level by investing in IMDb Pro. Thanks for all the great information!!!
Thanks Arthur. Yes you can use it to create your projects in development. as you attach people you can add them to those projects and it is a good way to show other collaborators that you are serious about your projects and also other people are helping you with those. If I look at your page as a producer looking for a writer it makes me feel more confident if you already have some projects under way. What type of scripts are you working on right now?
Thank you so much Axel! I'm doing a research paper on how digital platform affects the film industry. Your video is absolute informative and helpful! Thank you!
Would you say this is worth it for costume designers and crafts people who work in the production process of costumes such as stitchers, tailors and drapers?
Hey Kartsie. It’s definitely worth it for costume designers. For people working in the costume department it might be worth to get it for 1 month and add all of your credits and then cancel it. But if your goal is to be a costume designer I think it is worth it.
Hi Axel, really enjoyed your presentation. Fluid, concise and engaging. And most of all, easy to digest. You covered all the bases and some, in regards to the questions I was asking myself about returning to the fold after a few years absence. Thanks for the friendly chat, it was very motivating! Vaughan
Yes it would be very helpful. You can have your credits on your page, and you can find contact info of producers and directors. I have connected with several composers and music supervisors who have reached out to me because they found me on IMDb. Do you have any music already in short films or any other films? Having a couple credits before you get the pro version would help.
Yes. You could get contact info for other writers, agents, producers etc. You can see what type of projects a person has or is working on before walking into a meeting etc. What type of scripts are you working on?
@@AxelAxe Well, I've have a few scripts on hand but the most recent script I have placed in the Nicholl Fellowship contest this year. Don't know if you know much about them but it's the biggest most difficult screenwriting contest in the the world to even place. I've been trying to find a venue to post or share this script and that's when I came across this IMDBpro info.
Find it really hard to work, it should be reflective of linkedin but it takes so much time to upload a photo or write a promotional piece. Just started out on profile i will complete it but its VERY! frustrating similar to Microsoft excel but worse.
I agree with you 100% and it used to be even worse in previous years. I think Amazon will improve it but it will takes some time. I have another video on my channel explaining how to do a lot on tour profile. Hope it helps.
Yes. I would look up some films that you like first and see if they have it listed there. What part of India are you from? I had a company from India reach out to us for some animation work and they found us on IMDB.
I have some friends from Kerella. Yes the big Bollywood films also use IMDb. I just looked up some and they have their pages updated too. Have you done any short films? That could help when you meet a producer or casting director.
Thank you for the info. I recently finished my own feature film. I acted and produced it. Should I add it to IMDb and make an account for myself as well? We are also looking to do festival run with the film, will they care if the film has an IMDb page or not? Because I know festivals like you to premier the film at their festival so they can be picky.
Yes definitely create a page for you, for your feature film and add all the cast and crew. The film itself won’t be uploaded as a video to IMDb. It will only have pictures and the poster. Festivals prefer that and it will show that your film is official and the cast and crew as well shows up in the film IMDb page and on those peoples pages. Creating better search result for your film and yourself.
@@AxelAxe Its a tracking app for Movies, TV Shows, Anime, etc - I assumed you also have one. As a film student, me & my friends make private notes and custom collaborating lists on that platform.
I canceled my imdbpro trial subscription, it says in the account settings that your subscription has been canceled, no fee will be charged, but an extra I did not receive e-mail, is it normal?
I would search on imdb for the titles, producers, directors and casting directors who you want to connect with first. if they have a profile then it is probably worth it to get one, and you can also add your credits and find ways to connect with other filmmakers and get data about projects. If you dont find that many people in your near network then I don';t think it would be a good investment. unless you are also working a lot and you want to keep all your credits up to date.
Thank you for this video! It made a difference already, I don’t know where I will be one day but I needed to know this and thank you for informing me!
You're so welcome! Best of luck for you and all of your projects.

You're welcome Ivan. Are you an actor or a crew member? what is the main thing you think is going to help you?
Awesome video Axel! Everything you said was the absolute truth and super helpful to know. Thanks for making this!
You’re welcome man. We need to get your new projects on your profile. Have you added your new music videos?
Thank you for the advice. Can wait to see more videos like this!
You got it!

Thanks for all the great information!!!
Best of luck Alvin. Go after it bro.
Thanks for posting this video. Very instructive, practical and pragmatic for those new to IMDB Pro. Your tutorial video is helpful too.
John Vajda you’re welcome. If there is anything else I can help with let me know. IMDb can be tricky.
Great job Axel. I really enjoyed the video. I have an existing page but wondered if it was really worth it to showcase my screenplays.
Thanks Arthur. Yes you can use it to create your projects in development. as you attach people you can add them to those projects and it is a good way to show other collaborators that you are serious about your projects and also other people are helping you with those.

Thanks Vaughn. Glad to help a bit.
you rock, very clear, and you know what you are talking about
Thanks Fabian. What was your favorite part?
Do you think it would be good for someone who is interested in having their music on films as well?
what is your opinon
Yes it would be very helpful. You can have your credits on your page, and you can find contact info of producers and directors. I have connected with several composers and music supervisors who have reached out to me because they found me on IMDb. Do you have any music already in short films or any other films?
Having a couple credits before you get the pro version would help.
@@AxelAxe it's all in the works I have never had my music featured in a film before but I see what your saying about waiting before I get pro
@@AxelAxe I am an independent artist
What about student films, documentaries or any other project like that?? Even music videos can be added to IMDB.
Waiting for the tutorial!
Is dropping on Wednesday :-)
Axel Arzola you are the best 🔥🔥🔥
Gracias brother.
Thanks for the information!
Jen X you’re welcome.
After 30 days I didn’t pay , they removed my photos! How come most of the actors have a pic on IMDb without paying ?!
Soma actors have their agents keep up their profiles.
Did you loose your headshot as well?
@@AxelAxe yeah 😭 what can I do, ?
@@AxelAxe agent should pay?
@@joonicake yes. But an agent or agency can represent a ton of actors so it makes the cost really nothing when you can handle so many profiles.
@@AxelAxe most of the actors profile created by agent only, not IMDb website?
My question is... does it work for screenwriters?
Yes. You could get contact info for other writers, agents, producers etc. You can see what type of projects a person has or is working on before walking into a meeting etc. What type of scripts are you working on?
@@AxelAxe Well, I've have a few scripts on hand but the most recent script I have placed in the Nicholl Fellowship contest this year.

I've been trying to find a venue to post or share this script and that's when I came across this IMDBpro info.
Yeah off course I know about the Nicholl. Congrats that’s an outstanding competition. Is it a feature? I would like to read it
@@AxelAxe sure.... would love to share. Do you have an email you'd like me to send the PDF? Thanks.
when I cancel my IMDbPro membership my movies and photos will be deleted?
They won’t be deleted. You just won’t be able to edit it until you resume your subscription
@@AxelAxe what about my pics?
@@joonicake they will remain. You just won’t be able to add more.
Find it really hard to work, it should be reflective of linkedin but it takes so much time to upload a photo or write a promotional piece. Just started out on profile i will complete it but its VERY! frustrating similar to Microsoft excel but worse.

Is it work in India for Bollywood
Yes. I would look up some films that you like first and see if they have it listed there. What part of India are you from? I had a company from India reach out to us for some animation work and they found us on IMDB.
@@AxelAxe I am South Indian (gulbarga, Karnataka) struggling to become an actor in Bollywood(hindi movie).
I have some friends from Kerella. Yes the big Bollywood films also use IMDb. I just looked up some and they have their pages updated too. Have you done any short films? That could help when you meet a producer or casting director.
@@AxelAxe no I haven't done any short films yet, it would be helpful for me if you send me any casting director's number
Getting started is probably easier for you to find a student film project. That way you will have something to show a casting director.
Thank you for the info. I recently finished my own feature film. I acted and produced it. Should I add it to IMDb and make an account for myself as well? We are also looking to do festival run with the film, will they care if the film has an IMDb page or not? Because I know festivals like you to premier the film at their festival so they can be picky.
Yes definitely create a page for you, for your feature film and add all the cast and crew.
The film itself won’t be uploaded as a video to IMDb. It will only have pictures and the poster. Festivals prefer that and it will show that your film is official and the cast and crew as well shows up in the film IMDb page and on those peoples pages. Creating better search result for your film and yourself.
Do you have SIMKL account?
What’s that?
@@AxelAxe Its a tracking app for Movies, TV Shows, Anime, etc - I assumed you also have one.
As a film student, me & my friends make private notes and custom collaborating lists on that platform.
@@Azmarine13 maybe I should get an account then. On the professional side IMDb is the o key one I k own people in the industry use
How can I ask IMDb to create one profile for me as an actress ? Can i?
Go to “add title” page.
@@AxelAxe does IMDb recognize actress and create for us?
@@AxelAxe where is it? IMDb pro?
Yes you need IMDb pro. When you create the profile it won’t say actress. But you can add projects and credits later where that will show up.
Anybody know who to delete uploaded personal photos I accidentally posted on my IMDB Pro?
Private Eyes clic on the image and on the bottom right corner the last button is DELETE
@@AxelAxe Thank you so much. The format has changed drastically and everywhere online said you couldn't delete pics. You're amazing!
@@privateeyes6268 You're welcome. Yes the imdb site can be tricky. If you have any other questions hit me up.
I canceled my imdbpro trial subscription, it says in the account settings that your subscription has been canceled, no fee will be charged, but an extra I did not receive e-mail, is it normal?
Honestly I’m not sure about that. You should contact their support staff
Hi Axel
Am Indian Actor.is it worth to create my profile to Imdb Pro?
I would search on imdb for the titles, producers, directors and casting directors who you want to connect with first. if they have a profile then it is probably worth it to get one, and you can also add your credits and find ways to connect with other filmmakers and get data about projects. If you dont find that many people in your near network then I don';t think it would be a good investment. unless you are also working a lot and you want to keep all your credits up to date.
great video...
Gracias
