Mine is 308 pixels wide x500 pixels tall and it needs to be 640 pixels wide x1136 pixels tall to be accepted
Correct. 640 x 1136 is the minimum. Can’t be smaller than that
How can I change it so it’s right ?
If someone made it for you I would have them fix it, just my personal recommendation.
But if you want to do it yourself, you need to use an image edit app/program and resize the image
Thank you, any suggestions of free apps that you know off?
Thanks I’ll try it
I’m so confused!! How do you get a character to do something? What are zones? How do you move the screen?
I want to make my character to walk into a room from the right. When she stops, she makes a shocked face. Then the screen moves left and shows two more characters kissing.
Someone help me please. I’m dying here!!!
Aww hunny, relax

Hi, Nora!
Welcome to Episodes. 
I’m highly advising you to read guides first but like @RudeInception mentioned we’re here to help 
I tried looking over the guides, I don’t seem to understand it…
How do you get a character to do something?
@CHARACTER is idle_happy
or if you want your character to say something:
CHARACTER (animation_here)
Hello!
for thinking bubbles
CHARACTER (animation_here)
(I think)
How do you move the screen?
INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
@cut to zone 2
(cutting to zone you want)
INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
@pan to zone 2
(camera slowly moving to zone you chose)
I want to make my character to walk into a room from the right:
@CHARACTER enters from side to position
Example:
@CHARACTER enters from right to screen center
Animation after a character enter the scene:
@CHARACTER enter from right to screen center THEN CHARACTER is idle_jawdrop

Then the screen moves left and show two more characters kissing.
This is a bit harder to make but it would look like that:
&CHARACTER1 stands screen center in zone 3 AND CHARACTER1 faces right AND CHARACTER1 is kiss_passionate_loop AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer -1 AND CHARACTER2 stands screen right in zone 3 AND CHARACTER2 faces right AND CHARACTER2 is kiss_passionate_loop_rear AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer 1
For rear animations, the character has to face the opposite side
If you want your character to be behind another you have to use layers
Commands for the layer:
@CHARACTER moves to layer #
So your entire scene looks like that:
INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
&CHARACTER1 stands screen center in zone 3 AND CHARACTER1 faces right AND CHARACTER1 is kiss_passionate_loop AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer -1 AND CHARACTER2 stands screen right in zone 3 AND CHARACTER2 faces right AND CHARACTER2 is kiss_passionate_loop_rear AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer 1
@cut to zone 2
@CHARACTER enters from right to screen center THEN CHARACTER is idle_jawdrop
@pan to zone 3
#here you can see kissing characters
NOTE: I used INK animations
The kissing scene is kind of off. Since both of the characters are standing in the center, their faces don’t meet. But everything else went great. Thank youuuu!
I forgot to layer another character and you’re right they not close to each other but that’s the basic directing. If you want them close to each other you have to use spot directing:
On the Preview of your story press
Directing Helper
Then Spot Helper
Change Char:
On the left side choose the character you want to move or scale
Switch tool:
MOVE - moving character around the screen
SCALE - scale the character (bigger or smaller)
Try this:
&CHARACTER1 stands screen center in zone 3 AND CHARACTER1 faces right AND CHARACTER1 is kiss_passionate_loop AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer -1 AND CHARACTER2 spot 1.280 233 -6 in zone 3 AND CHARACTER2 faces right AND CHARACTER2 is kiss_passionate_loop_rear AND CHARACTER1 moves to layer 1
THANK YOU! okay, last question: how do you find the y & x axis? Like when you said “CHARACTER2 spot 1.280 233 -6 in zone 3”
Where did you find that number?
Sorry, wrong post

Follow the steps for directing helper and you’ll find this spot numbers on the bottom of the screen. Just copy them or rewrite (if you’re checking your story on the phone) to the script.
Example:
1.280 233 -6
1.280 it’s the character size (1.280 it’s a default one)
233 right/left
-6 up/down
