# Quickstart
This page explains how you can get started using the cutscene system and create a simple cutscene.
1. ## Set up **Cutscene Manager and Cutscene Graph Editor**
From Assets ► Non-Linear Dialogue & Cutscene System ► Prefab ► Manager drag and drop the Cutscene Manager and Cutscene Graph Editor to the scene.
2. ## Create a Cutscene
**Open Editor Window** - Tools ► Cutscene System ► Cutscene Editor
**Create a Cutscene graph**
Right-click on the editor window and select create graph option to create a cutscene graph
**Add Nodes to the Cutscene Graph**
Once the cutscene graph is created, you can right-click on it and add different nodes to it as shown below.
We have added a character model to the scene to play animations and make the cutscene look good. But you can skip that and try simpler cutscene actions.
3. ## Trigger the Cutscene
Create an empty gameobject and add the **CutsceneTrigger** script to it.
You can find the CutsceneTrigger script from Assets ► Non-Linear Dialogue & Cutscene System ► Prefab ► Trigger
In the CutsceneTrigger script, select **On Start** in the **Choose Trigger** field and drag the Cutscene created in the previous step to the Cutscene field. This will trigger the Cutscene when you start the game.
4. ## Test the Cutscene
Run the game and test the cutscene you created.
We have only tried a few cutscene nodes in this quickstart tutorial, but you can try out the other nodes and see their result. The list of all the available nodes can be found [here](/cutscene-system/documentation/nodes.md).
You can try triggering the cutscene using other methods. For example, you might want to trigger a cutscene when the player takes with the NPC, in that case, you can use the **On Trigger** or **On Trigger With KeyDown** options. Check out [this page](/cutscene-system/documentation/cutscene-trigger.md) to learn more.
A great way to learn about the functionalities of this system is to check out the [demo scenes](/cutscene-system/documentation/demo-scenes.md) that come with the asset and see how the demo cutscenes are created.
