Quoted from The Dark Horse
EXT. FREEWAY - NIGHT
INT. COFFEE SHOP
People amazed.
EXT. FREEWAY
Car still speeding along..

Would that not be alright, then?

And yeah, admittedly, I did see this technique used in a script that had a quick back and forth between an outside car and a house. And the second one was a western that was more or less outside.


No...definitely not!!!

Hmm.

I'm thinking perhaps just go with...
EXT. FREEWAY - NIGHT
INT. COFFEE SHOP - NIGHT
EXT. FREEWAY - NIGHT

INT. CABIN - NIGHT
EXT. CABIN - NIGHT
INT. CABIN - NIGHT

It seems like the safest option ha
Or as clear as it gets at least.

The only time I would get rid of the time references is if everything was in a single day or single night, and even then you might want to keep it around anyway to distinguish between CONTINUOUS, MOMENTS LATER and normal time jumps.


Feature-length scripts:
Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

TV pilots:
"Kord" (Fantasy)
"Mal Suerte" (Superhero)

Additional scripts are listed here.
