Transcript

This video shows you how to get started with your first production in CueCall. Your dashboard provides a unified overview of all your productions, with widgets for schedules, tasks, and notes.

From the Shows page, you create a new production by entering its basic details like title, dates, and your role. Then you can choose to skip AI generation and add content manually.

The Overview for your new production provides a helpful setup checklist. This guides you through initial steps like adding scenes, cast and crew, inviting your team, and scheduling your first events.

Once inside a production, its dedicated menu appears on the left. This allows you to easily navigate to sections like Scenes, People, or the Schedule, with each destination always in the same place.

Returning to your dashboard, you now see your new production's tasks and schedule integrated alongside all your other shows.
