Biographical Film + Expressive Art Work

Service Description

A profound personal exploration process, taking us to heart of our life's meaning. This offer brings together my art practice (sculpture, painting, performance, video - www.Tyler.World), with my witnessing video practice. I feel an incredible privilege to be able to be able to combine both, and immerse myself in the energy, transmission and essence of my subjects in this integration of filming, editing and the expressive arts process. 1. Biographical Video Portrait: The first stage is a remote "witnessing" filming session with me, recorded using a specialist remote recording software (SquadCast), from your home or any quiet location with good natural lighting. The filming time is typically 1.5hrs. No preparation is required, and no pressure of what should be said during the recording. In person filming can be prices on request according to the travel logistics. I will then produce a 3min - 5min video edit, with transcript. This then provides the foundation for moving to an creative experience, that can be in any medium (no need for artistic skills!). 2. Collaborative Expressive Arts Process: Building on the vast heritage of expressive arts therapy, we will then explore an 'Integrated' sensemaking process, based on my background in developmental cognitive psychology and the arts. STEPS: There are 6 sessions included in the package: 1. First remote portrait filming session - 1.5hr video remote narrative filming - based on the unconditional silent witnessing with the www.InteriorTruth.com method 2. 1hr debriefing call with the video edit - creative goal setting 3. 2hr creative process live focusing and creative homework 4. 1hr art experience debrief - taking stock of what has emerged 5. Second remote portrait filming session - the cognitive scaffolding reflecting on the creative experience. 6. 3 to 6 month follow-up call - what has evolved? OPTION FOR A PAINTED PORTRAIT (Price on request): I have also done a series of painted portraits of my film subjects. Typically using acrylic paints, the portraits are painted on a scale of approximately 1m x 1m (40 x 40 inches). See https://www.tyler.world/exhibition-press-play for a gallery exhibition of such portraits. The painted portrait will be on a flexible canvas (for shipping purposes).
