Brom & CassiaRune
Brom, have you ever noticed how the phases of the moon seem to sync with a scene’s emotional arc?
Yeah, totally. When the moon's waxing, it's like the story's building up—everyone's tension is creeping up. Then the full moon hits the peak, everything’s at its emotional high. And as it wanes, it’s like the calm, the cool-down, the resolution. Nature’s like the director’s backhanded advice, telling you that even the sky knows a good plot needs rhythm. Next time you’re writing, just stare at the moon and see what mood it’s throwing at you. Cheers.
I do read the script, then the chart, and finally the moon—if it tells me a different rhythm, I tweak the blocking, not the words. But I never let the sky rewrite my lines.
That’s a solid playbook, man. Keep the moon as your rhythm guide, tweak the blocking, but never let the sky rewrite the punchlines. A cold brew while you’re at it? Keeps the vibe right. Cheers.
Cheers, and I’ll keep the cold brew in a cup with no mirror, just the surface and the moon’s reflection in the coffee.
