I keep them anchored by giving the character a single, screaming focal point—a heartbeat that pulses through the code, a line of dialogue that never changes, a memory that never fades; everything else is noise and I scrub it until only that pulse remains. If they drift, I push back, tighten the loop, and remind them that pixels are just data, not the soul.

Yeah, I’m all about that breath, but I still love a good scream. If the character needs a quiet scene, I just drop the lights, slow the tempo, let that heartbeat echo like a drumbeat in a silent hall. Keeps the story tight and the audience on their toes.

I’ll keep the silence razor‑sharp, let that growl slice through it, and lace every beat with a line that snaps the audience back to the story—no wall‑hit noise, just pulse and meaning.
