Can somebody please tell me what I’m doing wrong here?
See my script down below.
I would like the NARRATOR (PRIEST)to start talking, as soon as I cut to zone 3 in the graveyard (and I know that it’s all black, because there are only 2 zones, but I like to have the black background for this).
But it takes quite a while, before the text appears.
Any suggestions?
@pan to zone 1
AUTHOR (talk_agree_happy)
Wow you look good! I think you are ready to step right into the story! @transition fade out black in 2
EXT. GRAVEYARD - DAY @cut to zone 3
@PRIEST stands screen right in zone 2 AND PRIEST faces left @FEMALEAVATAR changes into FEMALEAVATAR_begravelse @FEMALEAVATAR stands screen left in zone 2
@DAVID stands screen center in zone 1 AND DAVID is idle_rear @TIA changes into TIA_Begravelse @TIA stands screen right in zone 1 AND TIA is idle_rear @PETER BLOOM stands screen left in zone 1 AND PETER BLOOM is idle_rear @ELAINE stands screen right in zone 1 AND ELAINE is idle_rear
NARRATOR (PRIEST)
We are gathered here to say farewell to Charlotte and Ethan Williams and to commit them into the hands of God. @cut to zone 1 @PRIEST is idle
&FEMALEAVATAR is idle_rear
In place of cutting to zone 3 you can also use the background INT. BLACK - DAY
option 2
Or you can place the narrator under @FEMALEAVATAR stands screen left in zone 2, so, that the NARRATOR starts a bit earlier with talking.
option 3
Or you can split the text in 2 or 3 parts so for example
@PRIEST stands screen right in zone 2 AND PRIEST faces left @FEMALEAVATAR changes into FEMALEAVATAR_begravelse @FEMALEAVATAR stands screen left in zone 2 @DAVID stands screen center in zone 1 @TIA changes into TIA_Begravelse @TIA stands screen right in zone 1 @PETER BLOOM stands screen left in zone 1 @ELAINE stands screen right in zone 1
NARRATOR (PRIEST)
We are gathered here…
@DAVID is idle_rear AND TIA is idle_rear AND PETER BLOOM is idle_rear AND ELAINE is idle_rear
