So: a little formatting help?!
As you know, it is bloody impossible to find a good book/exemplar for current screenplay format - emphasizing current. Trottier was great for example, but even with the newest version current format is always moving toward more readable and much less direction, so it's confusing to know what to use.
I have a scene which is two people are in their own rooms in far apart homes talking through webcams to one another. I am happy with the director deciding where the camera should be at a given time so I am happy not to direct the precise shot, but, for example, when the camera is on one person the other could/will be visible on the computer screen.
How do I write the action AND the slugline(s) for this?
