The Self Discovery Production Team is creating an innovative model for documentary filmmaking and reality TV by combining a team that is practicing a powerful self-awareness/personal transformation strategy while documenting the true-life stories of fascinating people, unique cultures and socially important subject matter. 

This new model of film-making uses the power of the full un-divided attention and appreciation of the film production team for the subjects, stories and cultures they are filming to capture plenty of riveting and poignant "moments". This inspires, empowers and transforms the lives of everyone involved.

These "moments" are about being in the powerful "creative flow" or the "Zone" that masters strive to attain in every arena, from spiritual practices to the arts, sports and even business. By deliberately being in this creative flow of appreciation and fascination for the subject of the documentary, everyone involved is impacted and uplifted by the experience. It could be described as the "ZEN" of documentary film-making.

Everyone has had some glimpses of being in the "flow of the present moment". Highly creative people have more experience with it than most. A rare, few people have attained the ability to live their everyday life in this "creative flow"

Historically most of the people that even know of this state of being have strived to capture small glimpses of it in their work or life. Until recently that was about all a person could do. We are using a cutting edge strategy that has changed all of that.

We call this new model "Transformational Documentary". We call it this because everyone involved in the experience - the viewer, the subjects being filmed and the production team are educated, entertained and inspired on such deep levels about socially and culturally important subjects that they are transformed by the experience. They begin to integrate and understand the viewpoints of others with compassion and appreciation. This is the true value of good art. The experience is so riveting that they experience a deeper, more powerful, aspect of themselves and this causes on-going transformation and personal growth in their lives.  

Our productions are deliberately designed to be a valuable contribution to people's personal growth and to the integration and evolution of society as a whole as well as to be commercially successful in order to reach a broad viewing audience and create maximum impact.

We feel that this new model is going to set a new standard for the future of documentary films, reality TV and even feature films. Even beyond that we believe it is the future for humanity to learn to operate in this way. That is the ultimate mission of these productions - to set a higher standard for living our lives.
