What’s the connection between Frodo, Luke Skywalker and Harry Potter characters?
Filmmaking has always been categorised as an art - what if you were to be told it's not quite as artsy as you may think. Joseph unmasks the secret science behind filmmaking and challenges you to alter your perceptions of art.

Starting his business at only 23 years old, he now runs a team based out of Birmingham, England and works with internationally recognised organisations helping them to shape their brand and stand out with video content.

The content currency of today is video, and Joseph’s obsession is the pursuit of creating outstanding, compelling and emotive video content.
Six years ago, whilst studying for a Business and Politics degree he fell into a period or depression and uncertainty, as lot of people do through their twenties he became more and confused about what he wanted to do with his life. After being flat out broke and starting a podcast, Joseph quickly realised he loved the process of media production. Fast forward four years, three offices, eight staff and a dog later, he now leads a team that create impactful videos with internationally recognised brands
across the world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Filmakers accept the fact that there is more to learn than they already know. They accept that there are always new ideas and new ways at looking at things. Get the networking habit. There are countless opportunities. 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Joseph Campbell cobbled together a great blue print based on other peoples ideas and work - but everything said here by Joseph is baseline writers info, known and understood by most screenwriters from their fledgling days.

Thanks for your thoughts here, I appreciate the feedback. Perhaps my message wasn’t clear enough but I never claimed the hero’s journey was a new concept. This was one element of many sections of the talk used to solidify the message that films follow a more scientific approach, informed by 100 years of data, and as such this creates a film formula throughout not only the narratives structures but the cinematography and sound design. Ultimately, this poses the question - are modern filmmakers boxed in by this formulaic and scientific approach? And does this hinder their creativity?

@@JosephHousley to be honest, I thought it was a good talk - felt the bombastic title was more at fault than the film. A little clicknbaity. Have a good week, keep up the good work.

Huge "so what factor" here. This is not a new science. The heroic journey model he describes goes all the way back to the dawn of literature and storytelling itself and is one of the foundational pillars of Western literature. - It's been formally taught for thousands of years. Look at Homer's Odyssey and The Iliad. You learn this exact formula on the first day of every Western Lit. class. This is the whole point of Campbell's work. Campbell merely clarified, codified, and synthesized it. - Not a new science! - A basic, anthropological truism, as old as humankind: humans tell stories; these are the types of stores we tell. Always have, always will. Can it be beneficial to formally study and consciously apply this knowledge to various storytelling crafts? Yes, like I said, been doing that for thousands of years!

Ummm.... did we need a ted talk to explain this? I feel like most people, who've seen 7+ films can work this out... not trying to be mean. Just wondering if Ted talks have lost all meaning

They’ve definitely lost the clean sound.
