    Thumbs up Socionics documentary -- UPDATE -- it's coming really SOON

    Currently, the Socionics documentary is being edited... The intention behind the documentary is to produce an audio-visual INTRODUCTION to Socionics... A place to start for beginners and/or ppl who'd just like to know what Socionics is.

    Hopefully, this documentary is going to be short and to the point. (Thankfully, a bunch of ppl are helping me to keep from going on tangents...)

    To get the project focused, (it was becoming overly in-depth,) we took a survey about what ppl would like to know about Socionics, (we surveyed ppl who don't know about Socionics,) and developed questions from the survey.

    It turns out ppl wanted answers to very simple questions about Socionics... Questions most anyone in our community here could answer...




    The documentary's PROBLEM CURRENTLY IS... It needs more color... More voices and vibrancy. (No offense meant to those who've given interviews so far... It just turned out that ppl wanted answers to much simpler questions than we anticipated.)



    Does anyone have ANY IDEAS about how to add more color and vibrancy to the documentary?? I'm open to any ideas, and to be honest, would REALLY appreciate responses... (It's be awesome to make this documentary as good and helpful as possible.)

    Assuming you want ideas from people not involved, you'd have to give a little more on what you already have... I wouldn't mind giving suggestions if I knew what I was giving suggestions to. And what exactly do you mean by "vibrancy"? Is this along the lines of needing a host or entertaining voice over to guide the entire documentary along, or some visual renditions of whatever you're talking about? What are your initial ideas to solve this problem, just so we can see where your mind is at and have a starting point to give you ideas that aren't useless or can't apply to what you're doing.

    It sounds like a great project though, should be interesting to see Would you mind sharing the types of questions people want answered? Would it help to direct you to introductory psychology videos, or other documentaries to model? It might seem too basic, but watching actual documentaries might inspire you.

    Something I'd do would be this - -

    At some point, contrast images of different kinds of groups of people, or couples, and how they interact, or just like they come across -- like, a stereotypical group of Beta-seeming young people with a more subdued group of Delta-seeming young people. Or contrasting couples of (at least look like) wildly different dualities - to make the point (added by the narration, if you're having one) that people are attracted to different kinds of people, which we all sort of take for granted, but the reality is , nobody understands why.

    To this, maybe constrasting interviews -- like, you have (say) a SLE- IEI couple in one, and a ESE-LII couple in another. And you ask what is it that they appreciate the most in each other, contrasting their answers -- and maybe you can pose the same questions, as in describing a LII to an IEI, an asking what they'd like and not like about that kind of person.

    Ideally (and perhaps not easy), you'd get answers like "yuck no I could never find such a person attractive, and I don't think anyone would" at the same time that you show that others have precisely the opposing views.

    In a nutshell, my take (which may be too Te) is to present the evidence and let people think, "hmm maybe there's something to this" rather than just state blandly "that's the way it is".

    ETA: never mind - I just realized it's being edited already, and what I said may add "color" but not "vibrancy".

    Do you mean perhaps something like Spencer Sterns you tube videos?

    It depends on how/who/what your chosen market is.

    Have you spoke to any illustrators or graphic designers?

    you should have a core representative of each type make a brief introduction...gender or subtype pairs would be helpful as well...

    Document an actual SeFi (female!) - NiTe (male!) couple. Just so that I stop believing that it belongs to the realm of cryptozoology. That is last seen in 1803 somewhere in himalayas where they were the only man and woman around in 500 km radius And perhaps to provide a service to all SeFi girls and NiTe guys who see the document. Maybe it would also be a convincing example that duality actually works, opposed to something like TiSe-male & FeNi-female, that's something that would give people just a duh! reaction.

    ...the human race will disappear. Other races will appear and disappear in turn. The sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. Which will also disappear. Everything will disappear. And what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'.

    My mother is SeFi and my father is NiTe

    I always like examples. Maybe act out a situation and examine how different types react. You know an Artisan, Director, and a Guardian walk into a bar....

    Put me in it?
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...
