View your cast members
To create a Director movie, you need cast members. Cast members are the objects that appear on the Stage and in
the Score. Some of these elements might be text, graphics, sound, video, or scripting behaviors.
The movie you create in this tutorial consists of three scenes. Some cast members appear in more than one scene,
and some appear in one scene only. First, use the Cast window to view your current set of media. Next, you will begin
adding new cast members. You add cast members to a Director movie by creating them in Director or by importing
files made in other applications.
If the Cast window is not already open, select Window > Cast.

You can view the Cast window in two views: List and Thumbnail. In List view, you can sort cast members by
name, number, date modified, type, and other criteria. Thumbnail view lets you see a thumbnail image of each
cast member. In Thumbnail view, cast members are always shown in numerical order. For this tutorial, you will
use the Thumbnail view. If your Cast window is in List view, you need to switch to Thumbnail view.
