Have you added the overlay to the background?

I guess yeah

When you add an overlay to a background it should look like this.

INT/EXT. BACKGROUND - DAY/NIGHT with LIGHT BLUE BABY SWADDLE

Is it that you want a character to hold the “baby”?

no i want the baby to be “inside” the cradles

Then I don’t know why it isn’t working, sorry :sweat_smile:
Maybe @Dara.Amarie can help you??

I have tagged her so she can see the topic so she can see what it is that doesn’t work
