After you finish typing your comedy script:
- Look over the attached rubric.
- Read it aloud and make any revisions in the script or formatting before you print.

When you're writing/typing your comedy script in Celtx remember these key words for formatting, since they call the three types stage directions differently:
Scene heading = scene directions will be underlined and centered; use when you change scene locations or time
Stage directions = stage directions will be italicized
Parenthetical = character directions and will be centered in ( )
Character will capitalize the characters' NAME the line above dialogue
Dialog is used for dialog and will be slightly indented
