MONTAGE IN A SCREENPLAY
At the end of the previous scene/location, write the following - left justified - just like all your action/description lines:
MONTAGE SEQUENCE:
EXT A TYPICAL RUNNING TRACK AROUND A FOOTBALL FIELD MORNING
Jack, in tee shirt and running shorts, is slowly jogging along the track, breathing very heavily.
EXT SAME TRACK MORNING
Jack, dressed differently, is jogging more easily and confidently.
EXT SAME TRACK DAY
Jack, again dressed differently, is running at a very brisk pace, arms and legs in sync with his unlabored breathing.
EXT CITY STREET EARLY MORNING
Jack, in shorts with a large # tag pinned on his chest, is among several other similarly clad runners stretching, jogging in place, etc.
EXT DIFFERENT CITY STREET LATER
Jack is among the leaders, only 2 people ahead of him as he looks determined and makes a quick move passing them both.
EXT FINISH LINE ON A STREET LATER
Jack bursts through the stretched out tape, a few feet ahead of his closest competitors. He is mobbed as he nearly collapses.
