You need to use overlay so they can be behind table.
Please visit my website for more templates and guides!

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”

And place your characters using spot directing

I will still encourage you to try to do it yourself.
Choose the background and pick a table overlay
Add characters to the scene using normal commands (@CHAR stands screen right etc)
Open Directing Helper and play around with spot directing placing characters behind the table, then copy the numbers to your script
If you have problems with layers check my thread hereHOW TO: Move Characters / Overlays to the Layers

I know this might be hard because you’re only starting but the only way to learn is to practice
Let me know if you have more questions.
