I'm currently working on a script where one of the main characters has experienced an event that changes their attitude and look - the good person gone bad. In the script I time-hop in the narrative, so that I have post-change scenes followed by pre-change scenes, back to post-change, etc.
My question is whether I should name each version of the character differently in the script to make it clear which version we are seeing at any given moment? "GOOD BOB" and "BAD BOB"?
The alternative would be to use an action line to describe the BOB we're seeing at that point in time, and I worry that it would become tedious (and a waste of space) to do that every time there is a change.
