Hi,

I just signed up and I've posted several pages of a script I've been rewriting. One of the questions I have is that I seen various script formatting online. What is the rule for capitalizing? I know actions and character name are in caps, but what else?

Hi, I'm new here and just purchased Final Draft 10.

I'm trying to rewrite a script of mine with the new software. I found that there are lots of different formats and rules governing how to write a script. Here's an example of a scene. I capitalize the characters, their actions and their descriptions. It just doesn't look right.

7. INT. PSYCHIC SHOP - BACK ROOM - DAY

LADY DANA, a middle aged woman DRESSED in FLOWING VEILS and BEADS, SITS behind a DESK with her feet up on it, EATING some COOKIES, while watching a DAYTIME TALK SHOW. The room is CLUTTERED with PERSONAL JUNK. A CLOSED CIRCUIT TV Displays the FRONT ROOM. She sees a BLUE LATE MODEL TRANS AM ENTER the PARKING LOT and PARK in front of her STORE. She quickly drops the cookies and brushes herself off. TURNS OFF the TV and PUTS ON a FLOWERY HEAD PIECE. She WATCHES the CCTV INTENTLY.

There seems to be too much capitalized.

First I'd like to thank all of you who answered my first post. Thank You.

I tried to paste in my post several pages of a script, but it all came out as one long spaceless text. is there a way I could attach a file to this post?
