In Filmustage, the App automatically tags and categorizes script elements such as cast, locations, props, and other production details, helping streamline the script breakdown process. You still retain full control over every element.
You can edit any breakdown tag using the Tag Editor. The App lets you rename a tag, add notes, change its category, search for a reference image in image libraries, or upload a reference image from your device.
