I'm searching the best way to format a phone conversation in my TV pilot. Can someone please explain intercutting? Thanks!

I start with the call being made or answered. Scene heading to other side of conversation. I stay on a single side as long as I need. Then new scene INTERCUT: ROMEO/JULLIET I just finished a modern drug drama with teens as main characters. The entire script is virtually calls on phone.

These examples are great. Thanks, Pierre and Beth. Craig, this method is what I'm finding as well. Thanks for the feedback and the premise sounds awesome. Much luck!
As long as you introduce both scene headings/locations first and you can say Intercut right before the 2nd scene heading/setup.
What Danny said.
Perfect, Danny. Thank you. And thanks, Jody.
