Watch the Video on Cast Panel

The Cast Panel shows what characters are in your script and active scene as well as the actors associated with those characters. On the initial load of the script, Filmatick scans your script and automatically populates this list.

...

When starting Filmatick, the Cast tab populates with all of the speaking characters in your script. The user must assign actors from the Explorer Tab to each character. After the initial assignment, the user can reuse each actor in any scene or shot. Filmatick automatically assigns them but the user may re-assign a different actor for each scene or shot.

Note

Assign characters ONLY to Scene Blocking and/or Shots. If you add a character to a set, Filmatick will think the character is part of the set and won’t be able to create shots with.
