Read a cast info sheet

The Cast Info Sheet pulls together what the wardrobe, makeup, and AD departments need about each cast member: measurements, wardrobe and makeup elements, shooting days, and special requirements. It is the printed reference you would pin in the wardrobe trailer or hand to a new head of department on day one. This article covers opening a member’s sheet, reading it, and exporting.

The Cast Info Sheet is a live report: it always reflects current cast and schedule data, there is nothing to snapshot, and it has no variations. Edit cast details, character links, shoot days, strip order, or production-unit details and an open sheet refreshes automatically. See Snapshot reports versus live reports.

Before you start

  • You have cast elements in the breakdown and measurements on the cast list. Without cast elements you see “No cast members found — Add cast elements to the breakdown first.”

Open a cast member’s sheet

  1. Open Reports and select the Cast Info Sheet card. The cast info library opens as a card index — one card per cast member.
  2. Use the tab row to browse All cast, or grouped By shooting day, By department (wardrobe, makeup & hair), or By prep (heaviest prep first). The search box filters by name or character.
  3. Select a card to open that member’s sheet on A4 paper.

What is on the sheet

For each cast member:

Header card

  • The actor and linked Character in the canonical Actor Name · #N — CHARACTER NAME format, plus wardrobe and makeup prep-time chips. If no Character is linked, only the actor name appears.

Measurements

  • A grid of populated measurements: height, weight, chest, waist, hips, inseam, jacket, shirt, trouser, dress, shoe, hat, glove, and collar. Empty fields are hidden — the grid shows only what is filled in.

Wardrobe

  • The name and optional description of each wardrobe element associated with the cast member.

Makeup/Hair

  • The name and optional description of each makeup or hair element.

Shooting days

  • Day badges. Hover or tap a badge to see that day’s scene numbers.

Special requirements

  • A free-text block with any per-cast requirements.

Export

From an open cast member’s sheet, the side panel shows:

  • Export PDF — downloads that member’s page as a print-ready PDF.

To distribute the sheet, use Crew → Mailing List to copy addresses or open a draft in Gmail, Outlook, or your default mail app, then attach the exported PDF.

Use the By department tab to pull just the wardrobe or makeup/hair cast for a fitting day, and By prep to see who needs the most chair time. Keep cast measurements current in the cast list — that is the source of truth, and it flows through to this report.
