Hi I have a question regarding the ellipses some scripts use capital letter after ellipses and some don't use capital letter after ellipses how can I know which one is correct?
Hey Batman! That’s a great question. It shouldn’t affect an actor’s interpretation of the script, but as a writer I can say I’ve probably done both. I think it depends on what happens in the ellipsis. If it’s just pausing… before the end of the sentence, then the next letter should be lowercase. If it’s a trail off and the next word starts a new thought, then it can be capitalized. That’s my best educated guess but should not be taken as gospel.
"Get taped" is my new favorite channel.
I've never really put much thought into the difference between the two so thank you for enlightening me!
Thank you for the clear explanation
Amazing video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

How about double dashes?
To my knowledge, a single dash “-“ or double “- -“ would have the same meaning.
Great info as always...but when are you going to play that damn guitar for us-
Hahahahaha! Soon! It was a banjo in a recent video 😁
