Try adding opacity 1 in 0 ?

8

Okay I’ll try that

9

No it’s still not working

10

Try putting the overlay name next to the background after a with ~
“EXT. STREET - DAY with TAXI DRIVER”
and then add the specific placements of the overlay underneath into your script as you would normally, but add the &overlay TAXI DRIVER opacity 1 so that the overlay actually appears on the previewer. Hope this works :woman_shrugging:t2: :eyes:

11

Okay I’ll have a go thank you

12
