THE BENCH

SAM  I rehearsed this. Out loud. To a plant.
RIA  Did the plant say yes?

02 · Open seats and duets

Ria's lines are open. Play Ria.

Every duet starts as half a scene. Pick the open role, record your lines one at a time, and Distill cuts both halves together so it plays like one scene.

No one around? Run lines with an AI scene partner. Rae, Theo or June reads the other part, on cue.

03 · Scene looks

One take. Five looks.

Finish your take with a Scene look. It grades the video only. Your script and the app stay clean.

Natural, Film and Noir are free. Golden Hour and Vintage come with Plus.

04 · Write

Bring your own scene.

Type a script, scan one from paper with your camera, or have the AI writer draft one from an idea. It comes out formatted like a real page.

The pause before "organization." That is the whole character in one beat.
One thing to try
Let "adulthood" sit for a beat, then look away from her.
