Department prep

Track each cast member’s looks

Keep the written details, visual references, scene assignments, and department costs with the character.

Costume changes

Number each change and list the garments, shoes, jewelry, accessories, and multiples that make the look.

Hair looks

Record products, color, cut, wigs, hairpieces, finish, and the notes needed to repeat the look.

Makeup looks

List products, beauty and body makeup, tattoos, nails, SFX, wounds, bruising, dirt, blood, and aging.

Fitting and continuity photos

Keep reference photos, fitting photos, continuity angles, department notes, and documents with the cast member or look.

Sourcing and costs

Track purchases, rentals, vendors, quantities, prices, pickup and return dates, storage, and wrap disposition.

Department pages

Print one cast member or the full cast, organized by cast or shoot day, with the information the department needs.

Scene continuity

Track Every Character's Look by Scene

Assign the costume change, hair look, and makeup look to the scenes in which they appear. Add a wear note when something changes—clean, wet, torn, bloodied, reset, missing a layer, or at a different stage of injury.

  • Assign one or more Costume, Hair, or Makeup looks to a scene.
  • Add scene-specific wear and continuity notes.
  • See the scene number, script day, slugline, and shoot date.
  • Check the character’s scenes in the current shooting order.
  • Open the script, breakdown, or shot list when the department needs more context.
