Hey guys, so I’m having a little script malfunction.
So, I have a character spot directed on the screen but it returns to this:
(Dialogue is blurred out because it’s a big part of my story lol)
In the script, I have it as @NEWS REPORTER spot 0.799 230 177
Can someone tell me why this is happening?
Try to add the zone after the spot, maybe that will work? 
I’m not too sure that it has anything to do with the zone. I’m thinking it may be because it’s an overlay? Even if it is that, I’m not sure what to put in my script to make my character be placed where I want it, rather than be in it’s original place. (if that makes sense)
It could be that there’s a zoom 
If there isn’t then I’m pretty sure it’s the zone.
Could you send the whole scene? Maybe i then can find the problem
Wait, so I managed to look closer at my script and realised I had “ANS” instead of “AND” (I fixed that up) and now there’s yet ANOTHER issue. The character I want in the TV overlay is now in the room.
Here is the script:
INT. HOLLYWOOD NEWS ROOM - DAY with TV
@zoom reset
@overlay TV moves to layer 1
@NEWS REPORTER spot 0.799 230 177 AND NEWS REPORTER faces left AND NEWS REPORTER is talk_neutral_loop
@DAD spot 1.448 38 -256 AND DAD is idle_rear AND DAD faces left AND DAD moves to layer 2
I also included the line in bold in case that has any part in this.
@NEWS REPORTER spot 0.799 230 177 AND NEWS REPORTER faces left AND NEWS REPORTER is talk_neutral_loop
before that add
@NEWS REPORTER moves to layer 0
Yeah, that could work.
Moved to Directing Helps and Tips since this involves coding. Make sure to check out our Forum Tutorial for more info about where to correctly create topics, and feel to PM me if there are any questions. 
Thank you! It worked!
You’re welcome
