Permissions per section
For each role, you choose what it can read and what it can change in each part of the app: projects, tasks, cast, inventory, chat and settings. The menu only shows what a person is allowed to open.
Manage users in one place
Settings list every user with their role. Changing a role takes one click, and it applies at once.

Access is part of respect
Rates, client budgets, performers' phone numbers and measurements are not everyone's business. Roles make the right behaviour the default: a day player does not have to be told not to look, because the page is not there.
