Script help - layers

Creator's Corner Directing Help & Tips

I’m trying to make this mirror reflection in the bathroom, but even tho I’ve placed the characters and the overlay at diffrent layers it always ends up with the both characters behind the overlay. No matter how muvh I change the layers the script just continues to look the same and clicking on the char it says she’s in layer 3 but she’s still behind the overlay which is in layer 2.

Here’s my script,

INT. BATHROOM - DAY with BATHROOM
@overlay BATHROOM shifts to 3 9 in zone 1
@overlay BATHROOM scales to 1.486 1.486
@overlay BATROOM moves to layer 1
@YOU2 moves to layer -3
@YOU moves to layer 6

@YOU spot 1.134 96 123 in zone 2
&YOU2 spot 1.091 142 121 in zone 2
@YOU walks to spot 1.105 198 120 in zone 1 AND YOU2 walks to spot 1.084 120 125 in zone 1

Thank you

I’m not sure, maybe it’s because the overlay is created with the background? Try this instead:

3

@YOU spot 1.134 96 123 in zone 2 AND YOU moves to layer 6 AND YOU2 spot 1.091 142 121 in zone 2 AND YOU2 moves to layer -3

@YOU walks to spot 1.105 198 120 in zone 1 AND YOU2 walks to spot 1.084 120 125 in zone 1

For the line @overlay BATHROOM moves to layer 1, it says BATROOM instead of BATHROOM

Maybe that’s it? :sweat_smile:
