Abbreviations

Hollywood has its own code! Fun, right?

Here are some of the abbreviations you may use in a script:


(O.C.) = Off Camera
Not as common as the Voice Over (see below), off camera is sometimes used when a character is in the scene but is not shown (maybe they are yelling from another room).

(V.O.) = Voice Over
Use this to describe what a character thinks, or explains to the audience.

More to come.
