As production proceeds, the psychological authenticity of characters and locations may feel misaligned. Brief consultations to explore the nuances of the scene take place to ensure the final cut is the most desired.
Scripts that have mental health concerns, death, grief and other challenging topics can be difficult for the crew and cast alike to shoot. Mental health providers are beginning to frequent set spaces to offer mental health support to industry workers to assist with the maintenance of healthy emotional functioning. PsychMinded Media supports such projects and arrange mental health support to crew and staff on shoots that can be emotionally challenging.
Characters are made rich by equally learning about the personality of the character and the world in which they navigate. The quality of the environment(s) characters find themselves in enriches our understanding of who the character is and who they develop to be. Together, PsychMinded Media collaborates to discuss crafting sets that best reflect the characters that have been created.
We work with filmmakers and producers early on to shape scripts and ideas, helping ensure the story makes sense emotionally and structurally before production begins.
We review scripts and edits, support creators and performers as the work is released, and participate in festivals through panels, moderation, and Q&As.
