I have a scene in which the main character re-lives a past experience and I'm having trouble with formatting.
Example:
INT. LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
MAIN GUY sits on floor. Looks up (as if someone enters front door but nobody's there).
Begin Flashback -
Girl enters front door. Main guy smiles.
Back to present -
Guy stands.
Flashback -
Girl walks over to guy, they start dancing.
Present-
Guy dances by himself.
The scene/sequence goes on for a while longer, cutting between the present and past. The main character dances with the girl in the flashback, which takes place during a party, and dances by himself in the present. When the flashback ends, he's left standing alone in an empty room. This is from a short script that I plan on shooting some time early next year, but I'm trying to avoid any confusion for crew/actors. Thanks for any input.
