“Our media, which is like a planetary nervous system, are far more sensitive to breakdowns than to breakthroughs. They filter out our creativity and successes, considering them less newsworthy than violence, war, and dissent. When we read newspapers and watch television news, we feel closer to a death in the social body than to an awakening.” FeelsWarBodySocialWatchesCreativityViolenceMediaTelevisionNewsAwakeningNewspapersNervousSensitiveConsideringBreakthroughDissentBreakdownFiltersNervous SystemTelevision NewsNewsworthy Book:Conscious Evolution: Awakening the Power of Our Social Potential Source: Conscious Evolution: Awakening the Power of Our Social Potential

“Film and television are very different. On the TV show, we do seven or eight scenes a day, so time and money are of the essence, and we have zero room for creativity because you've got to do each scene in only five takes. Whereas, on a film, you have an entire day to film one scene, so you have so much time to choose how you want to fill in a scene.” WantDifferentShowsFilmRoomsCreativityFiveTelevisionTvsSceneEssenceSevenEightZeroTv ShowsTime And MoneyFilm And Television Author:Shailene Woodley
