# Genre / Metric Preset

Choose a starting set of scene metrics that fits the kind of story you are planning. This can help the first scenes track useful qualities such as tension, intensity, mystery or emotional weight.

The choice is only a starting point. You can adjust project metrics later as the book or series becomes clearer.
