Two practical workflows

Play the cue.
Control the prop.

CueLatch does two things: it plays ordered audio cues, and it controls believable screens on an Android prop handset.

01Audio cue playbackPrepare cues, order them, play them locally or through the prop handset earpiece.02Prop screen controlTrigger calls, messages and phone-screen action from off camera.

01 / AUDIO

Audio cue playback.

Cut cues from a recording, put them in scene order and trigger them when needed. Playback can stay on the controller or be sent through the connected prop handset’s earpiece.

02 / PROPS

Prop screen control.

Connect an Android handset on the production network and control what appears on it. The operator stays off camera while the actor handles a convincing phone screen.
