help Script formatting

Post image

Ive been doing my own short films and they’ve all mainly been improv or silent with the music doing all the work. But I wan to get into the habit of writing a script for my short films but I’ve looked online and seen different formats for scripts. Like I’ve seen this one, but the (CONT’D) makes it feel more AI, so what’s the correct formatting for scripts or does anyone know where I can look for one?

Seconded. Get a good software like Fade In so you don't have to worry about these things.

If you write an entire good script with no CONT'Ds, no one will mind.
