What is Soul Making?
Soul making is a means of connecting to
our deepest nature. Soul making is
communicating deeply with the inner
realm or our own interest, being fully
awake and aware by flooding our
consciousness with eternal images. It is
also an exploration and application of the
imagination in an active way
 HOW DO OTHER
PEOPLE PERCEIVED
SOULMAKING?
CARL JUNG, a psychologist has this to say: “My life is a story of the self-
realization of the unconscious. I can understand myself only in the light of inner
happenings. It is there that make up the singularity of my life.”
According to JAMES HILLMAN, a writer, soulmaking is
what happens when we evoke the emotions and
experiences of crisis and opportunity of love and dying that
give life a deeper meaning
JOHN KEATS also sad that only in this world, with all its
opposites provide the necessary stuff of soul-making. In the
Christian way, man is formed in the image of God and men
has the innate capacity to reflect that image in the life men
live.
Mr. Noy Narciso
According to him, through this activity, he is able to
connect people, understand cultures and embody
tolerance and peace.
He said: "My art making is considered soulmaking
because it is not too conscious about the exhibit. It
is not too conscious about the piece. It is not too
conscious about the form".
Mr. Noy Narciso, by the way, is a professor at the
Ateneo de Davao University.
He teaches film, theatre and arts for the Humanities
and Letters Department.
He was formerly a member of the Commission of
the Committee on Visual Arts of the National
Commission for Culture and Arts from 2004 to 2010

a. Crafting Ideas
This let us craft the images inside a Lightroom
or what we know as photo or video application
editor or simply our own imagination and mind
organization of what we perceived as an outcome
of our artwork.
Start out with an image that has "good bones" or
simply a good and attainable foundation

b. CRAFTING STORIES
According to Weiland (2017) of the Writer’s Digest,
there are seven (7) steps to craft a story for a
promising story idea. Here is the list:
1. CRAFT YOUR PREMISE 6.CONDENSE YOUR OUTLINE
2. ROUGHLY SKETCH SCENE IDEAS 7.PUT YOUR OUTLINE INTO
3. INTERVIEW YOUR CHARACTERS ACTION
4. EXPLORE YOUR SETTINGS
5. WRITE YOUR COMPLETE OUTLINE
b. CRAFTING STORIES
1. CRAFT YOUR PREMISE:
Your story should answer the following questions:
Who is the protagonist?
What is the situation?
What is the protagonist's objective? Goal of MC o
Who is the opponent? o What will be the disaster?
Conflict?
b. CRAFTING STORIES

2. ROUGHLY SKETCH SCENE IDEAS

Armed with a good and solid premise, you may begin
sketching roughly your ideas for the story. Write a
list of everything you already know about your
story. You might probably have a handful of scene in
mind. But take a moment to review your list
 b. CRAFTING STORIES
3. INTERVIEW YOUR CHARACTERS
To be able to craft a cast of characters that can help
your plot reach its utmost potential you'll need to
discover crucial details about them, not necessarily at
the beginning of their lives but at the beginning of the
story. For your protagonist, work backward from the
moment in which he will become engaged in your plot (the
"disaster" in your premise sentence). What events in your
protagonist’s life have led him to this moment? Did
something in his past cause the disaster? What events
have shaped him to make him respond to the disaster in
the way he does? What unresolved issues from his past can
further complicate the plot's spiral of events?

4. Explore your settings
Whether your setting is your childhood neighborhood or
the seventh moon of Barsoum, you’ll want to enter your
first draft with a firm idea of where your prominent
scenes will be taking place.
Never choose a setting just because it sounds cool or
because you're familiar with it. Look for settings that
will be inherent to your plot. Can you change your
story's primary locale without any significant
alterations to the plot? If so, dig a little deeper to
find a setting better suited to your plot, theme and
characters
b. CRAFTING STORIES
4. WRITE YOUR COMPLETE OUTLINE
You are now ready to complete your story in full. This is
where you will begin plotting in earnest. In Step 2, you
solidified the big picture of your story by identifying
the scenes you were already aware of and figuring out how
they might fit together. Now, you will work through your
story linearly, scene by scene, numbering each one as you
go. Unlike the "sketches” in Step 2, in which your
primary focus was on brainstorming and exploring
possibilities, you will now be concentrating on molding
your existing ideas into a solid structure
