Can someone give me the correct way to format your scripts. I am unsure how you do this. I write so much, but I never know if it is in the right format. Can someone just answer this question.
Thanks a bunch.

Try reading some scripts, and this thread belongs in the Sreenwriiting calss forum.
But here goes...
INT in a slugline ( a scene heading) means in side.
eg.
INT. DEN also adding a time of day (night, day) at the end of EXT (outside) will tell the time of day. (duh)
Speech.
NAME OF CHARACTER
Bla bla bla bla bla
|
|
Notice where the speech starts? The rest of the script, the speech starts at that margin ,no where else.
Present tense, all the time for action.

You've come a long way, Ben. Nice work.
There's several threads that deal with formatting along with specific aspects. If a script has a 8) then it's generally got the right formatting.
