Costume and design slideshows built from inventory items and your own images, presented fullscreen, exported, or shared by public link.

Transcript

This video shows how to create and share Costume Slideshows in CueCall. Start by generating a costume plot that automatically creates a slide for each character's assigned costumes. This saves time by building a ready-made presentation from your inventory.

Enhance each character's slide by uploading custom images directly from your computer, like this 1930s watercolor design for Mabel. You can easily add individual design elements to any slide for a complete visual overview.

Collaborate with your team by adding notes to specific slides. This allows directors to provide feedback directly within the slideshow, and it shows who wrote each note for clear communication.

Present your slideshow in a fullscreen, distraction-free mode for production meetings or design reviews. You can easily navigate through slides using your keyboard.

Share your slideshow publicly with anyone by publishing a unique link, making collaboration with external designers or volunteers effortless.
