I recently had to make a promo video for my startup on short notice, with a less-than-idea setup, and I did the exact opposite. I filled all of the 'silent' parts of the video with 'ambiance' because the sudden drop to absolute silence sounded very jarring.
I have no experience will audio engineering. I just thought it was interesting that we took opposite approaches to similar problems.
