Screaming Quietly Into The Void

also me: ok but also the historical stuff is so neat and i could replace everything and play with fake medieval shepherds

i am always caught between these two desires. i wish i could like. have two copies of the game with different Stuff In Them

It was the most stressful, suspenseful movie I’d seen in YEARS. I spent the whole movie going “OMG, are they going to make it?!!”

Because the characters don’t know the ending. And we care about the characters. We’re experiencing what they’re experiencing vicariously, through them. That’s the catharsis of good storytelling. 

And the people who made the movie understood that and they were all good at their jobs.

You create tension by getting your audience to care about the characters (which, honestly, doesn’t take all that much, as humans can form an emotional attachment to a Roomba [literally] and will). Once your audience is invested, you can create tension a million ways. 

It’s entirely possible to tell a story with life and death stakes that’s full of tension, of course, but if you have to have life or death stakes or there won’t be any dramatic tension, you’re not doing your job as a storyteller.

I reserve the right to refuse a commission at any time for any reason

I won’t draw n/s/f/w (light pda is okay), extreme gore, or any content that I consider offensive (use common sense for this)
