Check out this guide: A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

This is how you create an overlay in your scene:

A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

The create overlay command
This is used when you want to add an overlay in the middle of the scene.

NOTE: To use this command you have to add in the shift, scales, and opacity commands to make the overlay appear in your scene. You can learn about shifts, scales, and opacity down below.

@overlay OVERLAYNAME create
@overlay OVERLAYNAME shifts to 100 100 in zone # in 0
@overlay OVERLAYNAME scales to 1.0 1.0 in 0
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 1 in 0

Also, these are ways you can add your overlay into a scene at the beginning.

A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME
or
INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME to % x y
or
INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME in zone #
or
INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME at layer #
or
INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME to % x y in zone # at layer #

What these mean:

A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

OVERLAYNAME is the overlay name
x coordinate is where the overlay is placed on the screen horizontally (side to side)
y coordinate is where the overlay is placed on the screen vertically (up and down)
% is the scale size
T stands for time in seconds
# means “number”

Also, note this:

A Guide to Using & Animating OVERLAYS

When you test your story and move your overlay around, you will see 2 codes that look something like this (examples):
@overlay OVERLAYNAME shifts to 196 223
@overlay OVERLAYNAME scales to 1.0 1.0

196 is the x coordinate, 223 is the y coordinate, and 1.0 is the scales size (%)

So, an example using this:

INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME to 1.0 196 223 in zone 3 at layer 1
