Hi all, Following the preceding scene, I would like the screen to go to black so that the text "three years later" appears in the middle of the screen. Following that, i would like to jump into the next scene. I'm not quite sure how to write this: INT. SCENE BEFORE BLACK SCREEN xxxxxxxx FADE TO BLACK. SUPER: Three years later INT. SCENE AFTER BLACK SCREEN xxxxxxxxxx Any ideas? Thanks :)

I think that works but I might add BLACK SCREEN. I'd approach it like this:-- FADE TO BLACK. BLACK SCREEN SUPER: 'Three years later'. FADE BACK TO: Hope that helps in some way.
Thanks, Linda. I think "fade back to" was the missing jigsaw piece. Cheers

I don't know that I would specify a black screen because that seems more like a directors move. I would just write super: three years later And leave it at that. The black screen comment is not necessary to your story.
Or simply SUPER OVER BLACK: "Three Years Later."
thanks, all!
