HOW TO FORMAT ACTON IN A SCREENPLAY

Action (aligned flush left from the edge of the paper)

        

Suddenly, we see a jeep appear from one end of the street and drives slowly until it stops in front of a building with the description, NO 7 on its front gate.

After about five seconds, we start to hear the voice of a mature female crying out from inside of the jeep. The sound of her cry fades slowly until we can no longer hear it.

The jeep’s back door opens forcefully. Two able bodied men; DIGA and BRUCE, who have handkerchiefs partly covering their faces, jump down and pull MATILDA out.
