Hai boos I need help with my script. See there’s no error, but I tried to a my MC walking off and other character running onto the scene. But, when I put in the codes the other character screams and moves. I want the other character to run to position and then scream without it looking like it’s moving and screaming. Please help I tried putting the codes into different lines, but it doesn’t make a difference so please if anyone could help I LOVE YOU!!! :sob: :heart:

Here’s what my script looks like:

EXT. JUVIE OLIVER ROW HOME - NIGHT

@cut to zone 2

@zoom on 320 449 to 122% in 0

@speechbubble reset

@transition fade in black in 1

&ALEJANDRO spot 0.506 -32 403 AND ALEJANDRO faces right

&RICKY spot 0.506 -32 403 AND RICKY faces right

&ALEJANDRO walks to spot 0.506 231 400 in 8 AND ALEJANDRO starts walk_exhausted

@pause for 5

&RICKY walks to spot 0.506 81 399 in 2.5 AND RICKY starts run_athletic_offset

@pause for 2.5

@zoom on 362 371 to 291% in 0

    RICKY (scream)
ALEJANDRO!!!

Where was the part when Al runs offset?

It’s the beginning of the scene. Like Alejandro walks to a spot in the same zone as the other character but the other character runs onto the scene and yells his name.

Well maybe after cutting to zone 2 put

@CHARACTER enters from left to screen right AND CHARACTER faces right AND CHARACTER is run_athletic

Then preview it

Then replace @CHARACTER enters from left to screen right with the spotting.

No there in the same zone but the other characters is screaming and moving to the spot

use @ instead of &, & makes it done together.

@RICKY walks to spot 0.506 81 399 in 2.5 AND RICKY starts run_athletic_offset
