Understanding Jung and Understanding the Audience

Telling stories is about putting yourself forward as a vehicle for human understanding. The storytellers of the future could gain a much greater understanding of humanity, and more specifically themselves and their audience, by studying the work of Carl Gustav Jung.

His work in the area of psychology informed the creation of the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator which is a test that can be taken online HERE.

Jung has been informing artists and storytellers for some time. The below documentary looks at the life of the man and his journey as an individual.
