If you need to have text on screen, ie: 'Battle of Hastings - 1066AD'; how is this correctly formatted?
 

writerscut

There are many ways to do it...you might want to check out other scripts to see how it can be done. Two popular ways are...

SUBTITLE :Battle of Hastings - 1066AD

SUPER :Battle of Hastings - 1066AD

writerscut's way is good.

I've also seen:

INSERT: Battles of Hastings - 1066AD

and

"BATTLE OF HASTINGS - 1066AD"

Trivial little thought, if readers have to be told the Battle of Hastings happened in 1066 then maybe they might also need to know where Hastings is, e.g.

SUPER: "Battle of Hastings, England, 1066 A.D."

You'd missed your period (in the grammatical sense, not the menstrual sense) -- inserted just for fun's sake.

I agree with Derek.
SUPER is the best way.
SUBTITLE is usualy reserved for dialog.
