Casting workspace

Move between the full cast list and each role

MoviePrepper casting has a cast list view for the whole project and a role view for reviewing selected talent, options, reference, and linked scenes.

Roles stay connected to script breakdown data, so casting can see occurrences, page count, episode or script labels, and the scenes where a role appears.

02

Add options

Add new or existing talent options to a role and compare them in one place.
