Spot Directing help in layers


Hello guys. As in the picture seen above. I want my characters to be in their various seats performing their animation talking, dancing, using their devices but it just keeps putting them at the front. I want them to be behind their various tables performing their action before their teachers comes in. Yet it doesn’t work. I tried moving them to layers and it still doesn’t. Please can anyone help.

For that to work you need the overlays of the seats!

EDIT: there’s the same backround with the overlays included if im not wrong, try it with INT. CLASSROOM FRONT OL - DAY

Okay, I’ll try it now.

make sure you have the overlay on layers in front or behind the characters!

@di.angelic here’s what I’ve done

Pls explain in full. i don’t get

My apologies, I realized that’s confusing lol.
So, if you want a character behind an overlay in this case a desk you need to make sure that character is at a layer higher than the overlay.
Here’s how it would look in script.
@CHARACTER moves to layer 4
@OVERLAY NAME layer 5
That way the character will be BEHIND the desk and not in front.
Does that make sense?

Yes, But in this case I’m using a bakground with chairs. I highly doubt if it has an overlay.

I thought the backround included the other tables and seats. So for it to work you will need to upload the overlays yourself.

Heres a thread with a template that could help you Classroom template

as what di.angelic said you would need to create the overlays out of the background yourself or, you can find a classroom background with overlays many people upload free to use backgrounds, just search for them.

If I give u my details, my account details. Would u please do it for me

If I give u my details, my account details. Would u please do it for me.

So, you both mean I should fit in the overlay tables where those background tables are. Could someone make a video or something.

I can script you a template yes, you would just need to copy and paste it in your script that way you don’t need to give me your confidential information.

Okay, thanks

Please pick a classroom from their website, be sure to read over the rules as well!

Then I will do your template for you!

kk

But there are no rules there

The link i gave took you right to the classrooms page sorry about that https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HA3yUdakaXQBfpi-mesPsnNfY0kphhMl

Okay I’ve checked it. You claimed u will make a script. Please make a video and then share it. Or recommend. Or what I would do is just use the background, download the overlays and fit them into the background cause I’m having problem with that. And there’s already a code in the link you formerly sent.
