Formatting Drafts

I am just starting out, trying my hand at screenwriting and I find myself getting confused as to the differences between the formatting styles in which each draft of a script should be written.

For example, I know that a first draft would not have numbers next to each scene, that seems to be sort of a production level script, and that in an initial draft calling out specific shots is a no-no.

I guess what I really need to know is what shouldn't go into a first draft.

How do I insert new pages in FD?

I'm a newbie so I expect this question to be viewed as dumb. However, the problem is greater than my ego. So, I have FD7 and I have afinished script but I want to change a scene in it. It's about a half page longer than the original. Which means that from page 35 to the end the pagination (is that the correct term for this?) is screwed. I would have to print up a new script from page 35 to the end. I know how to use revision mode but that doesn't solve the problem, does it? Hope I can get some h…

"The Philanthopist" premiers tonight at 10pm on NBC---Ughhhh the pain of an idea lost!!!

He is trained as an Army Mountain Ranger and after his "wars" develops a software empire. After creating more wealth than God...he wants to help using technology. He saves a young girl and finds...he likes HELPING!!!

I've struggled with this idea and dealt with "Iron Man" and "Taken" and still tried to keep my OWN VISION of this character. But I think tonight...the Factory has won...I…

That they - the vampires - were not just bad guys but had their moral problems, relations and all. A bit the same that appealed to me in "Interview with a vampire". I don't remember which of them that I came across first. Now it feels like all vamp…

Interesting. So, what was it about that particular take on vampires that appealed to you?

I read a vampire script at Triggerstreet.com a long time ago that took me by surprise. I'm not a general fan of vampires, but Triggerstreet's system assigned script to you and I thought I could just as much give it a try. It wasn't one of the best…
