Probably not the first person to try this, but... I'm in the process of completely re-writing my screenplay from my college screenwriting course years ago. Comedy-horror that took place over a week. In hindsight, that was really dumb since it seems rushed and totally implausible. I ended up taking a day planner and wrote out all the scenes from my outline to specific days. Almost like if a character kept a schedule. It ended up comfortably fitting a specific time-frame of two months. On a spreadsheet, I copied all the date and time information with columns for the characters. This allowed me to see if I was leaving characters out for too long or putting too much at one time. One plus is that I even filled in some back story stuff earlier in the day planner.

Let's say you have a scene in an apartment, but action takes place within a few different rooms... Is it OK to just have... INT. STALIN'S APARTMENT - DAWN STALIN walks into the hallway towards the bathroom and goes in. He closes the door and takes a leak. Stalin washes his hands and then walks into the hallway again, heading towards the kitchen. Once inside, he opens the fridge and takes out a bottle of vodka. instead of separating each room with its own location header?
