Gremlin & EliJett
EliJett
Do you ever wonder if a completely silent scene could be the biggest prank in a film?
Gremlin
Oh sure, a silent scene? Imagine the audience sitting there, mouths open, expecting a punchline, and then… nothing. Classic. The real prank is you thinking you’re about to hear something epic, but it’s just… *crickets* and your own heartbeat. Now that’s a silent scream.
EliJett
The quiet can be louder than any line. I imagine getting lost in that silence, like my own heartbeat becomes the star.
Gremlin
Sure thing, a heartbeat in the spotlight. Just make sure you don’t let the silence run the show and leave the audience wondering if you forgot your script.
EliJett
I keep my script tucked in my pocket, but the silence feels like a cue I never got. It’s a little scary, but I guess that’s the thing that keeps me on my toes.
