Charcater walking problems

[caitlin.writes]

Hey so i’m a new writer and i have a slight problem with my storycoding. I have multiple characters walking and they are covering one another if that makes sense. Like they aren’t walking in a line. Any tips to fix this?

Script below:

INT. BLUE SCHOOL HALLWAY LOCKERS - DAY

@pan to zone 1

@AMBER moves to layer 1 (walk_neutral_loop)
AMBER
Did you bring your perfume? I left mine in the car.

@AUDREY moves to layer 2 (walk_neutral_loop)
AUDREY
Yea I got it-

    AVA (walk_neutral)
Oh my!

@pan to zone 3

    PENELOPE (think_rubchin)
So this is the school

@cut to zone 1

@zoom on AUDREY to 200% in 0

    AUDREY (react_shocked_gasp)
Who is that!

@zoom reset

@pan to zone 3

    PENELOPE (idle_happy_loop)
Time for a fresh start i guess

You could do
@CHARACTER walks to spot xyz in 0.5
@CHARACTER walks to spot xyz in 1.5
@CHARACTER walks to spot xyz in 2.5
Or were you not doing spot directing?

Sorry if this doesn’t work how you want, I didn’t test it out on my laptop

Thanks I’ll try it!!! The xyz is like “moves to spot 1”?

[april_episode]

No like…
@CHARACTER walks to spot 1.319 247 182 in 0.5

Not the real position, don’t put this in your script!

Script below:

INT. BLUE SCHOOL HALLWAY LOCKERS - DAY

@pan to zone 1

@AMBER moves to layer 1 (walk_neutral_loop)

Here! Try this instead

&pan to zone 1 in 2.1
@AMBER walks to spot ##### in 2.1 AND AMBER does it while walk_neutral_loop AND AMBER moves to layer 1

[caitlin.writes]

ok ok thanks!!

[rina.writes]

The “####” featured above is where you put the coordinates.
Example: 1.22 150 50

[april_episode]

Do you want me to just code it for you?

[april_episode]

Idk if I’m explaining it clearly

[caitlin.writes]

That would literally mean everything!!! Yes please!! sorry i’m new to the coding thing

[rina.writes]

Hun, if you want you can PM me and I can help teach you a bit better?

[april_episode]

Alright I’ll be done in like, 5 minutes

[caitlin.writes]

Thanks!

[april_episode]

So to be clear, you want one walking in behind the other, and then she turns to her and asks her if she has perfume?

[caitlin.writes]

yes

[caitlin.writes]

ok thanks

[april_episode]

Wait, I don’t really understand what you out above, when the two girls stop to talk about the perfume, do the others keep going, or are they all together so they all stop?

[caitlin.writes]

It would be cool if they could all keep walking.
