Primetime is an inclusive and supportive network and database of women working in the Film, TV, and Commercial Industries across pre-production, production and post-production. By ‘women,’ we mean all women (trans, intersex, and cis); all those who experience oppression as women (including non-binary and gender non-conforming people), and all those who identify as women.

When looking through submissions we take into consideration the following:

Feature Films (with a wide cinematic distribution, VOD such as Netflix, Amazon)


TV (for a major broadcaster)

BAFTA/ Oscar-winning Short Films

Commercials (from APA-registered companies in UK and other bodies globally)

Theatre Productions
 (West End, Broadway, Major Tours)

High-End Short Films shown at Academy & BAFTA accredited Film Festivals

High End Independent Feature Films (without a wide theatrical or VOD distribution)


High-End TV (internet-based TV shows, this is up to the discretion of the vetting team)


Radio Plays (Major National Radio Stations)

Full Members of any recognised Industry Guild

We review every submission carefully and if applying with Short Films require a minimum of 3 credits with the same job titles you are applying with and 1 of those projects must have been shown at an Academy or BAFTA Qualifying film festival. We also now accept projects with Grierson and RTS Awards. In countries where accessibility to these festivals is limited, we will take into consideration other factors and may reach out to ask for a CV as we know not all your work may be displayed on IMDb/ on personal websites. These are lists of the BAFTA and Academy Qualifying festivals we use as a reference.

Once we have approved your application, you will be live on the site and the more information you fill in the more search results you will be returned in.

Once you are up on the platform you can add all your job titles. The more projects you add with the job title you did, the more searches you will be returned in on the site. We suggest applying with your strongest credits, just so we have you up on the system.

Our site comes with over 260 grades loaded into it already but they only become visible once someone has completed their entire profile and been vetted by the Primetime Team. If you cannot find it please drop us a line and we will add it to the site.

We are well aware of the bottlenecks at the bottom and top of our industry and understand the frustrations of trying to get a foot on the work ladder. With this in mind, we hope to work with existing members and industry champions to train up future generations.

We will do our best to help you!

As soon as you send your details in we shall get to work. Your application will be put in a queue and we will try to send you confirmation of your membership as soon as we can. We are a small (but passionate) team based in London and try to keep to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) office hours (although we can't help ourselves from working on this all hours of the day and night!)

We are also very aware that your IMDb profile will not represent the body of work you have done and so may reach out from admin@primetime.network to ask for further details. Please check your spam folder if you have not had an email from us welcoming you onboard within 5 working days.

Yes! Let's get your work out there and be visible to people all over the world.

We receive a huge number of applications and unfortunately we are unable to write back to everyone personally but there will be a message on your account when you next log in.

We are only human and even though we do our best to not only look at IMDb credits but also personal websites and other online sources we might still overlook something so please if you do meet the entry criteria do get in touch at admin@primetime.network and we will review your application again.

Yaas please ladies! Once you have logged in, there is an “add people” icon in the top right-hand corner. Simply click on it and invite as many of the wonder women you have worked with as possible.

Yes, absolutely. We do not pass on or sell your details to anyone else. Only other Primetime Members can see your details, and you can choose to keep which details you would like to keep private. From time to time, we may take general figures from the database (i.e. 50% of our members are from London) for our own research with collaborative partners, but we will never reveal your personal details.

You can read our Privacy Policy here.

Primetime is registered with the ICO and we work with a top European law firm to ensure that everything we do is compliant with the new GDPR laws: (https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-data-protection/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/)

Firstly, we apologise! We are still in our Beta phase and our tech team are working as hard as they can to keep up with all the incredible feedback we are receiving. Please feel free to drop us a line, or alternatively, sit back, relax and come back to us in a few hours (we're not going anywhere!)

Yes, absolutely! You can add as many projects as you want to your profile and we are currently working on a dynamic layout to accomodation both profile and landscape images, CVs / Kit Lists / Pitch Bibles/ Personal Pronouns / Social Media Handles / Multiple Agents/ Skills / Languages / Location Bases / Contact Details / Guilds & Associations and much more to be downloaded by employers. The more projects you add, the more searches you will be visible in.

Keeping your profile up to date and visually impactful is the best way to do this. When we roll out further features in future waves, you will be able to connect with opportunities, curate lists, showcase your work, apply for schemes and much more.

The easiest way to keep your profile at the top of searches is to add as much work as possible. The more projects you add, the more results you will be returned in. Simple as that.

We work in a word-of-mouth industry. Employers want to know that not only are the people they are hiring talented, but they are also great to work with. This allows others to speak to the quality of your work and serves as a complement to your profile. You will have the option of adding testimonials to your profile along with a contact detail of the person who is vouching for you and if you have had the opportunity to work with some of the other wonderful women on the site, why not leave them a great reference? We work best when we work together!

We want to keep the platform as free of bias and judgement as possible and ask for a united front from all our members not to post images of themselves on our site. At Primetime, we believe that your work should speak for itself.

We understand that this is a new way of interacting, that a face tells a thousand stories and it is important to see who you are working with, so will find a solution when we roll out other features further down the line. But for now, help us to combat unconscious bias (and please don't hate us if remove any personal photos!) we just want to work towards an industry that is fairer and more representative for all and know that fighting biases by levelling the playing field helps with this.

We have been working alongside our sister organisations to help address the imbalance of members from underrepresented ethnic backgrounds. Members from a minority ethnic group can self identify if they wish to be returned in additional searches.

We welcome any feedback members may have around this topic.

Thanks for asking - yes! The law allows employers to search for and create lists based on "protected characteristics" of ethnicity and diversity as long as one of the following points is true:

1. You are not limiting your searches to only the people with these characteristics. We encourage you to work with us as well as our Industry friends such as BEATS and Sporas, in addition to your usual hiring pool methods.
2. You believe those with the "protected characteristics" are at a disadvantage when applying to work with you and that they are underrepresented within your current workforce.
3. You can justify that hiring someone with 'protected characteristics" is a required for the job you are hiring them for.

Everyone should have a nice environment to work in and as most of us work online at Primetime we believe that surrounding yourself with beautiful images from projects you’ve worked on gives employers an instant visual and accessible snapshot into your career. We hope this will capture their attention, leading to more work for our members. It also helps everyone find you as the more projects you add the more searches you will be found in. Always use images you have the rights for or take advantage of our Primetime stock images for free.

Many of the incredible women on the site have agents or would just prefer that their contact details are not posted. You will have complete control over what is your public point of contact and will have the option of not putting any contact details (although we encourage everyone to be as visible as possible in order to make getting work easier). Anyone who is not a member of Primetime will never be able to see this information, it will only be accessible to members and companies. You can change your desired contact details at any point.

Primetime is a vetted community of women and companies from all around the world.

We are a platform of respect, a safe a dignified space for all, and have a zero tolerance policy towards racism, bigotry, homophobia and any forms of aggression.

We ask our members to respect the privacy and identity of those on the site. Any abuse will be taken seriously and will result in being removed from our online community.

Please contact us at admin@primetime.network to report any misuse of the platform.

Yes! Get ‘em up there! You can upload as many documents as possible depending on your professional requirements. If you want to create a password protected document, make sure it is formatted that way before uploading.

Only vetted Primetime members will be able to download your CV. Your personal details and CV will never be accessible by non-members.

We take copyright infringement very seriously and members are only permitted to publish images that they have the rights to or permission to use. We have just rolled out new features including Primetime "Stock images" which means that even if you cannot track down images from projects you have worked on or are concerned about images rights, you can use ours as a placeholder to still create a visually stunning profile.

You can also take advantage of this feature if you are on the go and want to add work quickly, or as a placeholder until you obtain the rights. We do not take responsibility for any unlawful posting of copyrighted images on the site and will ask the user to confirm they have the rights in order to post images to their profile. If in doubt, always use our stock images!

We want to promote techno-joy not techno-fear! Just check that your images and videos are within the size guidelines on the editable profile page and if this still doesn’t work then drop us a line.

At Primetime, we want to be as inclusive as possible. We believe it is important that our members see themselves represented on our site and will take every effort we can to ensure this. We have rolled out a list of the most used neopronouns so that members, if they wish to, can self identify and let others know how they would like to be refered to.

We understand that not everyone is on IMDb - if this is the case, simply drop us an email with your CV and we'll be in touch with the next steps.

Currently Primetime is free to use for everyone. Once we start introducing paid features, we will hopefully be able to inundate you with discounts and offers. We are very committed to supporting women at all stages of their careers and our corporate and industry partnership benefits will reflect this.

Primetime takes Privacy and Data Security very seriously and you can read Primetime’s Privacy Policy here. We only have access to information you post on the site.

Of course, but we will be sad to see you go! Go to the Accounts page and choose for your account to be reset to the draft phase. From here you can delete it permanently. All information we hold will be deleted within 72 hours.

Primetime does not tolerate any abuse or misconduct of the service, database and website functionality. Cyber bullying and harassment are unacceptable.

Whilst the site is in its beta stage, please feel free to send us any feedback through the Doorbell service in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.

We hope that from the start, Primetime will be a useful tool helping to connect companies to brilliant women working within the industry. We understand that it can also be a difficult industry to navigate and so have partnered with an incredible company called Spot that allows you to report work-based harassment anonymously through the use of a bot. Click here to find out more.

The Film and Television Charity also has a 24/7 hotline where they can guide you to the appropriate resources: + 44 (0)800 054 0000.

The free sexual harassment helpline for women launched by Emma Watson can be accessed on +44 (0) 20 7490 0152.

At Primetime, we believe that everyone has the right to a safe and dignified workplace and this is reflected in the type of projects we will accept to be proposed to our members.

Unpaid work is not allowed or accepted and any productions offering this to our members will not be allowed to continue using our services. We understand that not all productions have million-dollar budgets, but we ask that projects all meet the National Minimum Wage. Please do get in touch if we can assist you finding any brilliant professionals: hello@primetime.network.

Currently we are in our minimal viable product stage and can only have one user per company. This is something we will be changing as soon as our next phase is rolled out so thank you for bearing with us! If you would like to sponsor this feature please get in touch at hello@primetime.network.

Well, thank you for asking! Please drop us a line at hello@primetime.network and let's get you onboard!

Primetime members are in charge of the contact details they make public. Some will have direct contact and others will redirect you to their agent. We hope to roll out an in-website messaging service very soon.

Yes, soon! We are so excited to be rolling out many new features in the near future and you will be the first to hear about it.

Currently Primetime is free for everyone to use. We hope to roll out more features as the platform grows and will then charge a small monthly fee for use of the services depending on the size of your company.

Currently there are over 260 predetermined roles for you to pick from on Primetime. You will also be able to filter the results, depending on the job’s location and project type coming soon. As the site evolves, there will be more options for carrying out more specific searches.

Most members will choose to upload a CV to their profile, simply click on the Details tab on a member's profile to find it.

Let us know! Please! That would make our day. Before we roll out further features such as jobs boards where we will be able to track all the good work you are doing, it is important for us to know the difference you are making. Not only so we can raise up best practice but also encourage others to do the same. We need to know where we are coming from to know where we need to go.
