In Filmustage, tagging and categorization — including cast, location, props, and other production elements — are performed automatically, streamlining the script breakdown process. However, users retain full control over these elements.

You can edit a specific tag of your script breakdown by changing its name, adding notes to it, changing its tag category, searching for the reference image among image stocks, or uploading a reference image from your device. This feature is called Tag Editor.
