Ok so random easy question! Is there a way to show a character’s dialogue without them being on screen? I know I can bring him on and just pan to a different zone but I was curious if there was another way. Thank you!

#919

You can either use the NARRATOR box with their name:

   NARRATOR (CHARACTER)
Dialogue.

Or you can place your character offscreen, or use @CHARACTER spot 0 0 0
