Your best tape forward.
Slatable was the first self tape app to let you tape without a reader. Since 2016 we've helped thousands of actors all around the world concentrate on their craft and not the tech of a self tape.
Built in collaboration with casting directors, professional actors and filmmakers, Slatable gives you a professional edge from file names to file size, every time you send a self tape.
Get off book, your way.
Memorize lines the way you learn best. Highlight lines. Black them out. Or use first letter mode to memorize. Pair any of these with the reader modes below to run lines. You can even play the scene on repeat while on the go.
Self tape without a reader.
Record the other characters' lines in the scene and play them back to rehearse or record a take. No reader, no scheduling, no favors. Slatable Premium's teleprompter follows along as you perform.
Four ways to play your reader.
Continuous
Your lines get muted, reader lines get played and the teleprompter scrolls to keep you on cue.
Auto
Slatable listens to know when to play the next reader line. Your voice controls the teleprompter.
Silence
Reader lines play after a set pause as the teleprompter scrolls with your voice.
Manual
Tap the screen, Bluetooth media button or a shutter button, to play the next reader line.
Track and repeat.
Slatable simplifies managing your auditions. Track which casting director you submitted to and when you created the audition.
With Slatable Premium, notes keep every detail from audition to set, and search keeps you on top of all of it.
Know your numbers with Audition Report.
How many auditions have you had this month? This year? Are you up or down on last year? Audition Report answers all of it in one screen.
Log your outcomes to see your booking ratio and which casting offices bring you in most, then share the report with your reps in a tap. Included in every plan.
Fully self-sufficient. Finally.
Everything in Free and Basic, plus the tools that make a tape sound and look like it came out of a studio.
First week of Premium free. Cancel anytime.
A voice changer for your reader.
Sound professional from take one.
Record the other lines, then pick a voice to play them back. SceneAudio AI keeps your timing, inflection and emotional choices intact, like another actor is reading with you.
Stay on cue, in any format.
A teleprompter built into the camera and as a standalone tool with beam-splitter support. Import scripts as text, PDFs, even scanned pages, or paste and write your own. It's fast to set up so you can get to filming right away.
Pro-level edits without an editing app.
Slatable's editing focuses on self tape standards, making sure you look like a pro. Split Slates combine full-body and close-up slates into one video. Import videos and photos, or store slates and headshots to add at any time.
The small things that add up.
Shoot in portrait
From full-body slates that put the spotlight on you (and not your room) to word-perfect TikToks with the teleprompter.
Import media
Add videos shot on your device, or turn photos into five-second Takes for your audition tape.
Media galleries
Keep slates and headshots ready to drop into any audition tape.
Unlimited everything
Take your time to nail the scene. Unlimited Scenes, Takes and saves per month.
AI audio cleanup
Strip background noise, hum and room echo from your Takes so your read sounds like it was recorded in a studio.
Bluetooth control
Play SceneAudio lines and start or stop the teleprompter with a Bluetooth media button for natural, overlapping timing.1

"Slick, easy, reliable and professional. Slatable is my go-to for tapes. I love the smart updates too. The AI reader is a game changer for those times I can't get a friend to read with me. No more "Can you redo it with a reader in the room?" because it sounds like they're already there. This app's results have been noticed by agents and casting folks alike as they've asked me what app I used and said how much they liked it. Hands down the best value out there too."
"Slatable has helped me book a number of jobs in the 6 months I've had it. Not needing to coordinate schedules with other actors to read with me for auditions is a game changer!"
"I've been using Slatable for many years now and it's helping me with my acting career. It's fast, efficient and gets the job done. I have done many auditions for film and theater and it's helped me land the roles I wanted. Having the premium subscription makes it even easier."
"The entertainment industry moves FAST and this app is the only one of its kind that can keep up! This is my go-to when I'm on location shooting and I need to submit a self tape ASAP. Slatable helps me stay ahead of the curve and the competition!"
"I've been using Slatable since it launched and can't imagine taping without it. It's intuitive and easy to use, with great tech support from a real human if I get stuck. Slatable helps me avoid tech meltdowns and lets me focus on booking the job."
"Slatable has been tremendous and helped me so much. It makes my life easier being able to combine a slate and audition into one nice video with transitions. I would recommend Slatable to anyone!"
"This app is a no-brainer! Every actor eventually needs to put themselves on tape, and this app lets you do it while staying self-sufficient. You do not need to rope in a friend or pay for a studio. It is easy to use and gives your finished tape a professional, polished look."
"Before Slatable everything had to be done by me. Slatable cut the shoot time for me by more than half an hour, and the AI reader is super cool and works fantastically, along with everything else. Thanks, Slatable!"

Self tape questions, answered.
What is a self tape for an audition?
A self tape is a video audition that actors create and submit themselves. These tapes are viewed by casting directors and anyone involved in the casting process. Phone cameras and microphones are now good enough for professional-level recording at home, so self-taping has become a crucial skill. It lets you submit to roles without an in-person audition, and offers flexibility and far more opportunities.
How do you film an audition by yourself?
With Slatable you can film an audition by yourself, even without a reader. Record the other character's lines with SceneAudio and Slatable plays them back while you record a Take with the built-in camera. With SceneAudio AI you can even change the recorded voice so it sounds like someone else is reading with you.
Can you do a self tape without a reader?
Absolutely. It's essential to have the other lines read aloud during a self tape; never settle for silent gaps where you're only left to react. That's precisely why Slatable was introduced in 2016: to let actors record self tapes independently. Upgrade to Slatable Premium to import audio from another actor, use the SceneAudio AI voice changer, and control playback with a Bluetooth button for more natural timing.
What should you not do in a self tape audition?
Don't go off script, in your performance or from the casting director's instructions. Be professional. Make sure you can be seen and heard clearly with no distractions in your recording, including your background and reader. Watch your tape back before you submit it. Don't film in portrait unless directed to. And don't forget to have fun.
How do you stand out in a self tape audition?
Your performance is the number one thing that will help you stand out. A captivating performance makes it easier to overlook a less-than-perfect setup, but don't just bank on your acting chops. Your setup shouldn't pull focus from your talent. Casting directors' guidelines are there for a reason, so follow them to the letter and get your tape in on time. Professionalism goes a long way.
Why can't you assign different voices to different characters in the scene?
Our mission is to ensure you put your best tape forward. Self tapes are simply another form of audition, and just like an in-room audition, you would typically read with one person handling all the roles in the scene. We want the focus on you and your performance. A self tape is not a short film or a staged reading, so one voice performing all the roles is standard practice in the industry.
