Computer-automated scripted electronic actor control

Computer-implemented systems and methods use a story to automatically control and coordinate electronic actors. The story may be written in a natural language (e.g., English), rather than a programming language or other language designed specifically to control machines. Embodiments of the present invention may parse the story into a script and generate cue signals based on the story. The cue signals are provided to the electronic actor(s), which may perform actions based on their interpretations of those cue signals. As a result, the story, the script, and the cue signals issued to the electronic actors do not deterministically dictate the actions performed by the electronic actors.
