    Storytelling Lab: The Creative Underworld

    The Storytelling Lab is a series from Shadowgraph that shares raw, practical tools for telling stories with minimal resources. It’s for filmmakers, writers, and audio producers: anyone building stories from the ground up. In this episode, we step into the mythic arc of creativity: a journey that begins in crisis and descends into the underworld of self-doubt, disorientation, and not fitting into the moulds society sets for us. Through personal reflection, filmmaker Ross Domoney traces how a camera became more than a tool: it became a lifeline, a literacy outside textbooks, and a way of reclaiming confidence. Guided by a mentor, tested in the chaos of youthful experimentation, and matured through discipline, this journey mirrors the timeless cycle of myth: moving from wound, to trial, to mastery. Along the way, we ask: What’s the creative tool that gives you freedom?How can chaos become fuel for growth?Where are you in your own creative mythology?This episode is about more than filmmaking. It’s about how creativity itself can empower you, transform struggle into vision, and return you to the world with wisdom.

    Storytelling Lab: Filming the Inner World

    The Storytelling Lab is a series from Shadowgraph that shares raw, practical tools for telling stories with minimal resources. It’s for filmmakers, writers, and audio producers: anyone building stories from the ground up. In this episode, we turn the camera inward. What happens when a filmmaker stops chasing external spectacle and begins the filmmaking process by looking inward? Drawing on our own work, like documenting the Roma communities in the suburbs of Paris, we’ll explore how emotions and textures can drive cinematic choices.  It’s about the pre-filming rituals that let you meditate into the aesthetics of a location—standing still, listening, and absorbing the atmosphere.  Join our growing community Newsletter here:  https://www.shadowgraph.co/ Follow Shadowgraph Instagram: @shadowgraph_media Newsletter: www.shadowgraph.co YouTube: Shadowgraph TV

    Field Notes: Unexpected Encounter Whilst Filming in Syria

    Field Notes is a series from Shadowgraph: short audio diaries from the world of filmmaking. In today’s episode, we move deeper into the Al Yarmouk camp for Palestinians in Damascus. We reflect on how we approached the camp’s shifting aesthetics as filmmakers, from the way light moves through abandoned streets to the quiet weight carried in the tone of a person’s voice. An unplanned encounter with a convoy of HTS fighters in the camp ends with us getting a great interview.   For more episodes, films, and behind-the-scenes breakdowns, head to our YouTube channel:  https://www.youtube.com/@Shadowgraph_TV Follow Shadowgraph Instagram: @shadowgraph_media Newsletter: www.shadowgraph.co YouTube: Shadowgraph TV

    What the Hell: Seeing Past the News Cycle

    What the Hell is a series from Shadowgraph: a space to reflect and make sense of the absurdity unfolding around us. We offer creative tools for those of us feeling the weight of a destabilised world. In this episode, we look at the role of independent media: not just as an alternative to the mainstream, but as a space to go deeper. Beyond the breaking-news cycle, there’s a chance to slow down, ask harder questions, and create work that lasts. This is a philosophical conversation about why going deeper matters, and how independent media gives us the subjective freedom to make work that is layered, personal, and deeply connected to its subject. We talk about the patience it takes to do this work, the courage to tell uncomfortable stories, and the value of creating work that endures beyond the day’s headlines.

    The Storytelling Lab: One Backpack - Infinite Stories

    The Storytelling Lab is a series from Shadowgraph that shares raw, practical tools for telling stories with minimal resources. It’s for filmmakers, writers, and audio producers: anyone building stories from the ground up. This week, Shadowgraph host Ross Domoney reflects on the rucksack as the centre of modern independent filmmaking. With lightweight cameras, compact audio gear, and a laptop, you can now travel anywhere, capture a story as it unfolds, and bring it home ready to cut. It’s about the freedom to work without a crew, to move fast, and to stay close to your subject: carrying everything you need on your back. And the weight isn’t just physical. Inside are the voices, places, and moments collected from afar: stories you now carry with you.

In today’s episode, we reflect on the challenges of filming inside the Al Yarmouk camp for Palestinians in Damascus.

    What the Hell: The Anti-Narrative Therapy

    What the Hell is a series from Shadowgraph: a space to reflect and make sense of the absurdity unfolding around us. We offer creative tools for those feeling the weight of a destabilised world. In this episode — The Anti-Narrative Therapy — we talk about freeing yourself from the pressure of always having to find a story. We offer an exercise that is calming and restorative.  As filmmakers, we're often taught to chase structure, characters and tension. But during lockdown, all of that fell away. Stripped of production, deadlines, and outcomes, we returned to filming in its most basic, meditative form: pointing the camera at the stillness of nature, in what became a very healing process. All those years running around with a camera, chasing the story had taken its toll. Going back to nature, with a camera, was a much-needed process of recharge.  To hear more from Shadowgraph, sign up for our Newsletter:  https://www.shadowgraph.co Follow Shadowgraph Instagram: @shadowgraph_media Newsletter: www.shadowgraph.co YouTube: Shadowgraph TV
