More than one overlay

Creator's Corner

Hey!

I have more than overlay in my scene. I have a BUSH, a BASKET, a TREE, and a BIRD.

Right now all I have is:

EXT. MAGIC FOREST with BASKET

But I’m wondering how to add more than one in the scene? Thanks!

EXT. MAGIC FOREST with BASKET with BUSH with TREE with BIRD

All you need to do, is just keep on adding “with” with the overlay name.

Example:

INT. SCHOOL - DAY with CHAIR with TABLE with BOOKS

Sounds easy enough!

Thank you very much!!

You can do either of these 3 methods:

  1. EXT. MAGIC FOREST with BIRD with BASKET with BUSH with TREE

  2. EXT. MAGIC FOREST with BASKET
    @overlay BIRD create
    @overlay BIRD opacity 1 in 0

@overlay BUSH create
@overlay BUSH opacity 1 in 0

@overlay TREE create
@overlay TREE opacity 1 in 0

  1. EXT. MAGIC FOREST
    @overlay BIRD create
    @overlay BIRD opacity 1 in 0

@overlay BUSH create
@overlay BUSH opacity 1 in 0

@overlay TREE create
@overlay TREE opacity 1 in 0

@overlay BASKET create
@overlay BASKET opacity 1 in 0

In numbers 2 and 3 where I put the - ,
You’ll have to go into the web previewed, directing helper, overlay helper, and then scale the overlay and move it around. Then, right beneath the preview box, select both lines of code that should be something like

@overlay6418302847482_MISSION - 1 shifts to 111 157
@overlay6418302847482_MISSION - 1 scales to 0.369 0.369

Hope this helps!
