Try it and let me know if it works out for you.

it kinda worked but like falled normally so I’m going to try to shake the camera a bit
That’s a good idea

Woah, awesome concept for a scene!
Here’s how I picture it being done
Felix will be standing facing away from the screen (idle_rear) and then have Adriana enter, running and bump into him by using a fall behavior (faint would be ideal since we want her to fall backwards)
And when she falls, slightly zoom and focus the camera on her that way the readers don’t see Felix’s reaction or face. Then have her stand up, while the screen is still focused on her and have her say something like:
ADRIANA
Hey! Watch it!
Then have her be surprised (you pick a behavior for that, there’s a couple you can use)
Then she says something like:
ADRIANA
What are YOU doing here???
ADRIANA
Hey! Where are you going???
And zoom out to capture Felix running out. But have his body half way out of the screen already so you can’t see his face. You just end up seeing his arm and leg or something as he runs away
That’s how I’d do it 
Let me know how’s it goes 
This is probably a stupid question but I can’t seem to find the error in this scene. 
The error is: Expected CHARACTER or SCENE change. Found “NARRATOR (AUNTIE MAY)” instead.
CARTER (talk_think)
She has some unread messages.
@pause for a beat
INT. CELLPHONE - DAY
@CARTER stands screen center in zone 2
label texts
CARTER (talk_think)
I’ll read her texts.

“Nolan”{
@pause for a beat
NARRATOR (NOLAN)
I’m so sorry.
If you ever need someone to talk to, I’m right here for you.
@pause for a beat

NARRATOR (AUNTIE MAY)
My sister was such an amazing person and I’m sure a great mother.
If you ever need somewhere to stay, my door is always open.
I’ll be arranging the funeral for a few weeks.
@pause for a beat
NARRATOR (AUNTIE MAY)
Does Monday the 23rd sound good to you?
@pause for a beat
NARRATOR (AUNTIE MAY)
Hello?
Are you okay?
@pause for a beat
goto texts

“Unknown Number”{
@pause for a beat
NARRATOR (UNKNOWN NUMBER)
Where are you?
@pause for a beat
goto texts
}
“I’ve read all of the texts”{
NARRATOR
Are you sure you’ve read all of the texts?
choice
“Yes”{
}
“No”{
goto texts
}
}
Very simple yet illusivr solution.
You can’t use a double-worded name in place of the NARRATOR.
NARRATOR (AUNTY MAY) won’t work.
You either have to put an underscore between the words (AUNTY_MAY) or put the two word together (AUNTYMAY).
Thanks! 
@zoom on X Y to 100% in 0 works also
Oh my bad. I assumed you knew. Heres a quick and easy guide that I composed on zoom Directing. See if this will help:

Hi. How to move a character in sitting position? Or it is not possible to do?
I mean move the character around the scene. I want my character to ride by car and I need her to sit and move to another zone at the same time.
Thanks. I got it.
