Fade in and out transition! help :)))

When ever i do the fade in transition, it doesn’t start at the beginning. it starts at the middle of my scene if that makes sense. here’s my script:

@transtion fade out black 3

EXT. TOWN SQUARE LOOP-DAY

@zoom reset

@JADA changes into jada baseball tee

@JADA spot spot 1.082 175 95 in zone 1 AND TAYLOR spot 1.046 90 94 in zone 1
@JADA faces right AND TAYLOR faces right
@JADA is walk_neutral_loop AND TAYLOR is walk_neutral_loop

@transition fade in black 3

Before the @transition fade in black 3, change your @s to &s (except for the changing command.) For example:

The & symbol causes things to happen simultaneously and can hide things before transitions, if that makes sense. Looks like @Winteronepisode is answering, she’ll do a better job explaining than me :sweat_smile:

Change these:

@JADA changes into jada baseball tee

@JADA spot spot 1.082 175 95 in zone 1 AND TAYLOR spot 1.046 90 94 in zone 1
@JADA faces right AND TAYLOR faces right
@JADA is walk_neutral_loop AND TAYLOR is walk_neutral_loop

To & signs :slight_smile:
For example…

@JADA changes into jada baseball tee

&JADA spot spot 1.082 175 95 in zone 1 AND TAYLOR spot 1.046 90 94 in zone 1
&JADA faces right AND TAYLOR faces right
&JADA is walk_neutral_loop AND TAYLOR is walk_neutral_loop

The script is picking up that you want characters placed because of the @ sign, then realizes you want a transition and transitions after completing the previous commands. Using & signs tells your script that you want all to appear/happen at the same time, and will not cause a delay :slight_smile:
