Learn how to merge two or more characters into one character.

Written by Robert Kiraz

StudioBinder automatically tags cast members who have been formatted as characters within a scene. However, in some instances, a character may be referred to by a different yet similar name. In this case, you can easily merge them so they appear correct on the Day Out of Days Report (DOOD). 

Step 1 ⏤ Open sidebar

Click the sidebar icon in the top left-hand corner to open the element sidebar.

Step 2 ⏤ Select cast members

Click Cast Members from the element sidebar.

Step 3 ⏤ Merge elements

Select two or more cast members and click Merge Elements at the top of the page.

Step 4 ⏤ Confirm merge

In the pop-up, confirm the updated Character name and ID, add an optional rate or notes, then click Merge Cast Members.
