Use the & sign for the character animations and just keep using @transition fade in [color] in [# of seconds]

You have too many brackets that shouldn’t be there. You only need these brackets for an if/elif/else

if (blah) {

} elif (blah) {

} else {

}

Okay, thank you!

Thank you I’ve done it now x

Yes. Know that. But how do Imove the overplay in a position like that

You would shift, scale, and/or rotate it to the spot you want: A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

Hey! Just a quick question, how do you make a character disappear without exiting? Or is it not possible.

@remove CHARACTER

Hey Dara, in the beginning of my chapters I have the title and chapter name pop up. I wanted a gunshot noise for each one when readers tap the screen but, the second gunshot isn’t working. This is my script:

INT. SCREAMING BULLETS COVER - DAY
sound gun_cocking
NARRATOR
Screaming Bullets
sound gunshot
NARRATOR
Chapter 2 - Fiona
sound gunshot

@transition fade out black in 3
music off

Is there something I’m doing wrong?

Add this part to your script:

INT. SCREAMING BULLETS COVER - DAY
sound gun_cocking
NARRATOR
Screaming Bullets
sound gunshot
NARRATOR
Chapter 2 - Fiona
sound off
@pause for 0
sound gunshot

@transition fade out black in 3

I need help with Layers for my story. I want to get Kamille the girl circled in red to be in front of the table, but what I put into my script doesn’t seem to be working bc she still walks behind it

Did you layer the table overlay?

Yeah I layered it

What does your script look like?

The lined part is the table shown in the picture. I’ve changed Kamille’s layer from 3 to 4 and so on but idk what’s wrong

Try adding the scales and shift coordinates next to the background name, and add the layer with the spot direction

INT. DINNER SUNSET - DAY with TAABLE to 3.406 33 69 in zone 2 at layer 3
@NOEL spot 1.364 249 -14 in zone 3 at layer 4

Okay I’ll give that a try

Nope. She still walks in front of the table

Which character is the one that you want in front of the table?
