This should be an easy Q/A but for some reason I'm over-thinking it, maybe because it's all on page one of a script.
The script opens in a basic place, but it's a different time period and different name than you'd expect -- kinda like how in AMC's Turn they show sweeping views of fall countryside with nothing but trees and then SUPER - BROOKLYN, 1776 or something.
So we're in that tree-covered Brooklyn scene, we meet the guy who'll be the protagonist rowing down the Hudson in his three-cornered hat, then we flip back for a minute to the Old Country.
So I have a super that says something like SUPER - IRELAND, 1752 and then we see him dance an Irish jig at a wedding in Dublin.
Then we flip back to BROOKLYN, where our hero's rowing down the Hudson (which probably isn't in Brooklyn, but whatever...)
Best to do something like what I just did above, or since we're in this field that could be anywhere and we just jumped time, does it seem best to go back to SUPER - BROOKLYN, 1776
?
Kind of worried if I don't specify with the full SUPER explanation, people might be disoriented. A reader just told me maybe it's not necessary (of course, I had screwed up the month, so that had a lot to do with it as well.)
Thanks.
