YOUR GUIDE TO CREATIVITY

EMILIO BELLU

  • Emilio Bellu is an award-winning filmmaker with 20 years of experience across creative fields. Highlights include:

  • Over a decade of professionally writing about video games, and movies.

  • Co-organized an international cultural festival.

  • Won multiple international awards as a filmmaker, and had my video work shown at the Venice Biennale and the Osaka World Expo.

  • Co-funded an NGO about media literacy, and helped running it for a few years.

  • Won an award for best soundtrack for a movie I’ve made, and played music on stage together with a former NATO Secretary General.

  • By jumping across these fields as a freelancer, I have built and refined tools to help with my workflow, and my projects; this class is a way for me to share and test these.

What is this about? Modern life is filled with change. If it feels chaotic, it's because we have been taught to find a stable job, career, and family. But we have rarely been taught how to adapt when the unexpected happens .

  • To live in a chaotic world requires resilience. but it also turns creativity (something most people consider optional, if not fanciful), into a real asset: creativity not just as a means to create art and culture, but also to look at our daily life better.

  • This course will lead you to complete a project of your choosing, or part of it, through five weeks; exploring the cognitive costs of being creative; strategies to deal with option paralysis; how to deal with losing momentum; how to structure feedback; and how to actually finish your projects.

THE CLASS

A COLLECTIVE GAME the class will be highly collaborative. As a teacher, I will coordinate the work, summarize the classes, and give personalized feedback. But within the classes, the very ability to be able to bounce ideas with a group of curious and motivated people will help with figuring out how to supercharge the creative process.

  • THE PROCESS IS THE PRODUCT: at the end of the class, each students will have pushed forwards their project, and possibly have a finished one. But the real goal of the class is for every student to have become better at sustaining their creative habit.

  • A WORKBOOK FOR THE FUTURE: the classes themselves are only half of the course. As everyone works on their projects in between sessions, I will craft weekly summaries of each session. At the end of the course, these will turn into a customized workbook made of the lessons learned through the course, and with customized recommendations for each student.

  • USE CASES: This class is going to be useful for creative professionals to find the best way to explore and develop their project for themselves. But also for people who don’t work in creative fields to find ways to better adapt to challenges, communicate with their peers, look at possibilities. And this will also be useful if you just have a desire to explore something new in your life. Creativity can be just diving into a hobby, but not as a distraction, rather to turn it into something more fulfilling.
