			= Cast =

	== Overview ==		== Overview ==
	~~The~~ '''Cast''' ~~page~~ is ~~where you define~~, ~~organize~~, and ~~assign~~ characters ~~(both virtual and human) for~~ your ~~production~~. ~~It provides tools~~ to create ~~new~~ character ~~profiles~~, ~~link them to story elements~~, and ~~manage actor assignments~~.		In [[ACT3AI\|ACT 3 AI]], the '''Cast''' is the group of [[Characters\|characters]] and their assigned [[Digital_Actors\|Digital Actors]] who bring your script to life.
			Casting connects story roles with customizable AI performers, ensuring continuity across [[Scenes\|scenes]], [[Shots\|shots]], and episodes.

			== Purpose of Casting ==
			* Assigns [[Characters\|scripted roles]] to [[Digital_Actors\|actors]].
			* Maintains consistency of voice, appearance, and performance across the project.
			* Allows reuse of saved actors from the [[Actor_Library\|Actor Library]].
			* Enables collaborative casting in team or [[Organization\|organization]] projects.

			== How Casting Works ==
			# Define [[Characters\|characters]] in your [[Script_Editor\|script editor]].
			# Open the [[Actor_Library\|Actor Library]] to browse or create [[Digital_Actors\|Digital Actors]].
			# Assign each character to an actor.
			# Adjust [[Voice\|voice settings]], wardrobe, and personality traits.
			# Lock the cast once approved to avoid accidental changes during production.

	== ~~Main Sections~~ ==		== Cast Management ==
	* '''~~Character List~~''' ~~– A sortable table of all characters in your project~~, ~~showing name, type (AI‑generated or live actor), role~~, and ~~status~~.		* '''Actor Profiles:''' Store appearance, voice, and performance traits.
	* '''Character ~~Profile~~''' ~~– Detailed view for each~~ character~~, including attributes, reference images, voice and motion style presets~~.		* '''Character Mapping:''' Each character role is mapped to a digital actor.
	* '''Casting ~~Assignments~~''' ~~– Assign actors~~ to ~~characters, set availability windows, and track casting decisions~~.		* '''Recasting:''' Replace actors mid-project without rewriting scripts.
			* '''Shared Casting:''' Share cast lists with your [[Organization\|team]] to keep consistency across projects.

	== ~~Creating and Editing Characters~~ ==		== Example Cast List ==
	~~# '''Add New~~ Character~~:''' Click the “+ Character” button to open a form for name~~, ~~description~~, ~~and template selection (e.g., hero, villain, background).~~		{\| class="wikitable"
	~~# '''Import from Script:''' Automatically generate character entries by scanning your script for unique names.~~		! Character
	~~# '''Edit Profile:''' Update attributes such as age, gender~~, ~~physical traits~~, ~~and custom AI‑style parameters (voice~~ tone~~, movement style).~~		! Assigned Actor
			! Role Type
			! Notes
			\|-
			\| Detective Carter
			\| [[Digital_Actors\|Actor A – Male, 40s, rugged voice]]
			\| Protagonist
			\| Appears in all 3 Acts
			\|-
			\| Sarah
			\| [[Digital_Actors\|Actor B – Female, 30s, calm tone]]
			\| Supporting
			\| Key Act 2 plot driver
			\|-
			\| Alien Overlord
			\| [[Digital_Actors\|Actor C – Stylized creature]]
			\| Antagonist
			\| Requires VFX-heavy rendering
			\|}

	== ~~Assigning Actors~~ ==		== Integration with Workflow ==
	~~# '''Search Actors:''' Browse internal talent pool or external casting databases~~.		* [[AI_Wizard\|AI Wizard]] – Generates character suggestions automatically.
	~~# '''Create Auditions:''' Send scene excerpts to actors; receive feedback~~ and ~~video samples directly in the Cast page~~.		* [[Editor\|Editor workspace]] – Cast appears in sidebars and shot prompts.
	~~# '''Set Availability:''' Block out dates when~~ actors ~~are unavailable to avoid scheduling conflicts~~.		* [[Storyboard_Panels\|Storyboards & Panels]] – Characters auto-populate with assigned actors.
			* [[Build_Video\|Build Video]] – Maintains cast continuity across rendered outputs.

	== ~~Linking to Story Elements~~ ==		== Best Practices ==
	* ~~'''Script Integration:''' Characters automatically link to dialogue lines and scene headings~~ in ~~the Editor~~.		* Name characters consistently (avoid duplicates).
	* ~~'''Storyboard Panels:''' Attach character profile references to storyboard frames for consistent visual style~~.		* Keep alternate actor looks (costumes, age variations) in one [[Actor_Library\|Actor Library]] entry.
	* ~~'''Timeline Tags:''' Mark where each character appears on the timeline for shot planning~~.		* Assign placeholder actors early, then refine casting later.
			* Lock main cast before [[Build_Video\|final rendering]] to prevent continuity errors.

	== ~~Collaboration and Review~~ ==		== Troubleshooting ==
	* '''~~Comments & Notes:~~''' ~~Leave casting notes, performance feedback, or style guidance on character profiles~~.		* '''Actor not linked to character''' → Reassign in [[Cast_Manager\|Cast Manager]] tool.
	* '''~~Change History:~~''' ~~Track edits to character attributes and assignment changes with full version history~~.		* '''Wrong voice''' → Check [[Voice\|voice profile settings]].
	* '''~~Approval Workflow:~~''' ~~Lock down finalized cast lists~~ and ~~send notifications to team members~~.		* '''Actor missing from scene''' → Verify [[Timeline\|timeline placement]] and [[Storyboard_Panels\|storyboard]].
