CASTING DIRECTOR: Adding Sides to a Role

Sides are provided by Embershot - click here to learn more. Embershot and Cast It passwords should be the same. If they are not, please do a "forgot" password in Embershot to reset the password.

NOTE: Sides downloaded from an Open Call Page or Project URL are automatically watermarked with the recipient’s email address

• Watermark on a file: CD’s can adjust the watermarks directly in their Embershot account 

• Default watermark settings: CD’s can also adjust their default settings so that they will change in Cast It moving forward 
• Additional help can be found here

1. Login to your Cast It Systems profile

2. Click into your project so you are viewing the list of roles
