WHAT IS THE SCHOOL OF SLOW MEDIA?

The School of Slow Media (SoSM) is a global leadership program for creatives, changemakers and everyday leaders that want to develop a more mindful, collaborative and creative practice. Because we believe that every body is a camera, our relationship to images can create conditions for peace.

Through immersive experiential learning in Southeast Asia, SoSM will attune your storytelling skills, refuel your creativity and reconnect you to the humans at the heart of every story.

WE BEGIN BY POSITIONING THE HUMAN BEING AT THE CENTER OF STORYTELLING  

At the School of Slow Media we focus on the common space between us (the "storytellers"), our audience, and the people we film. We call this process: Human-Centered Storytelling (HCS)

Instead of sensationalizing conflict (for example, poverty, violence, terrorism), we listen to the everyday lives of the people in our stories as our starting point.  This humanizing approach makes SoSM a unique training where mindfulness and listening are essential practices in the craft of storytelling.
