Episode Synopsis

What the Hell is a series from Shadowgraph: a space to reflect and make sense of the absurdity unfolding around us. We offer creative tools for those feeling the weight of a destabilised world.In this episode — The Anti-Narrative Therapy — we talk about freeing yourself from the pressure of always having to find a story. We offer an exercise that is calming and restorative. As filmmakers, we're often taught to chase structure, characters and tension. But during lockdown, all of that fell away.Stripped of production, deadlines, and outcomes, we returned to filming in its most basic, meditative form: pointing the camera at the stillness of nature, in what became a very healing process. All those years running around with a camera, chasing the story had taken its toll. Going back to nature, with a camera, was a much-needed process of recharge. To hear more from Shadowgraph, sign up for our Newsletter: https://www.shadowgraph.coFollow ShadowgraphInstagram: @shadowgraph_mediaNewsletter: www.shadowgraph.coYouTube: Shadowgraph TV
