YOUR FACE.A THOUSAND STORIES.
Appear in films. Get paid. Without stepping onto a set.
Welcome to the new entertainment industry.
Your face could appear in films, television series and AI-generated entertainment watched around the world.
You don't need to be an actor. You don't need an agent. You don't even need to visit a film set.
You just need to be you.
EVERY FACE HAS A STORY.
The people we see on screen should be as varied as the people watching.
JOIN gives people a way to take part. Your likeness can become part of a character, a crowd or a world created for a BAI-LEY production.
YOUR LIKENESS. YOUR OPPORTUNITY.
Create an account, upload a face photograph and a full-length photograph, provide your government photo ID and sign the JOIN Agreement.
Our team checks your account before your likeness becomes available for casting. If selected, your likeness can be reconstructed, animated or generated for a production.
BAI-LEY directs the character and performance. Individual scripts, roles and final productions are not submitted for your approval.
For a fictional role, we may adapt your likeness to look younger, older or a different ethnicity. Your face could also be the starting point for a monster or an alien. These are creative changes to a character, not statements about your real identity.
HOW MUCH COULD YOU EARN?
For qualifying appearances. Per person, per film or episode.

APPEAR & EARN
For a qualifying final production use, receive a Notice of Use and Payment Due. Your account records the production, fee and payment status.
YOUR FACE BELONGS TO YOU.
Participation is voluntary and non-exclusive. You license your likeness under the JOIN Agreement; you do not sell your identity.
You can stop future participation from your account. Previously authorised productions and their permitted promotion may continue where lawful. Outstanding payment obligations remain.
Casting photographs are stored privately. Government photo ID is kept separate for identity and age checks and is not supplied to productions.
A WORLD OF NEW POSSIBILITIES.
Today, JOIN registers people for BAI-LEY productions.
Our longer-term ambition is a global network of licensed human likenesses for authorised studios and AI production agents. Wider access is a future ambition and would require appropriate permissions and safeguards.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS.
Who can join?
Adults aged 18 or over who can enter the agreement and provide photographs of themselves they are entitled to license. Applications are accepted internationally, with identity, age and local production eligibility checked before casting.
Do I need acting experience or an agent?
No. JOIN is open to people without acting experience or representation. Your likeness may be used to create a generated character or appearance; you do not need to attend a set.
Does joining cost anything?
No. Creating a JOIN account is free. Registration and verification do not guarantee selection, appearances or income.
When and how will I be paid?
A fee becomes due when your likeness appears in an approved final production master. M&D Media Ltd issues the notice and owes the payment. The target is within 30 days, using your saved PayPal or bank details. Fees are stated in GBP.
Can I be paid for more than one appearance?
You can earn a separate fee for qualifying uses in different films or episodes. Within one film or episode, only the highest applicable category is paid, regardless of the number of scenes or shots.
Can I stop taking part?
You can stop future participation from your account. Previously authorised productions and their permitted promotion may continue where lawful. Outstanding payment obligations remain.
How are my photographs and ID protected?
Casting photographs are stored privately. Government photo ID is kept separate for identity and age checks and is not supplied to productions.
Will you clone my voice?
The JOIN licence excludes cloning your actual voice. A character using your visual likeness may have a fictional generated voice.
Is every use of my likeness paid?
Only the highest applicable category is paid for each film or episode. Registration does not guarantee casting or earnings.
Could my appearance be changed?
For a fictional role, we may adapt your likeness to look younger, older or a different ethnicity. Your face could also be the starting point for a monster or an alien. These are creative changes to a character, not statements about your real identity.
