Scenario

Copilot Studio can help streamline talent acquisition in Media & Entertainment by automating the screening, scheduling, and feedback process for actors and voice actors—accelerating decision-making and reducing time-to-hire. 

1. Intake and role matching​

For a new casting request for a voice actor, a casting director can leverage an agent to quickly parse the role requirements—genre, tone, language, and availability.
