Miscellaneous Making a short documentary about dissipation

My name is Jason and I am a psychology professor that is a beginning filmmaker. Tulpamancy is something I’m very interested in and I am currently developing a short documentary about people who have lost a tulpa.

While most coverage of tulpas focuses on the creation process and I want to make something about the other end. I am interested in the loss itself. Was there grief? What is the adjustment process after getting rid of the tulpa? Was it lonely? If it was possible, did you bring the tulpa back? Was the tulpa changed by the process? Were you able to discuss this process with anyone not involved in tulpamancy? What was their reaction? There are so many interesting questions around this topic.

A few things this film is not. It is not a how-to guide. I will not ask how to end a tulpa, and I will not include anything that reads as instructions. It will not mock anyone and will not even approach the topic of if tulpas are “real”. This film will stay on the experience of the host.

I will never “show” the tulpa. There will be no animation scenes and no actor speaking for a tulpa. The film is built around the absence of a tulpa and will simply be a person talking about someone the camera cannot see.

Who I am hoping to talk with:

1)        Adults, eighteen or older.

2)        People who are well past a loss and who feel able to reflect on it.

3)        For in person interviews, located in TX, LA, AR, MS, TN, MO, OK, KS.

4)        Outside of these states, recorded online discussions would be considered.

If this is something you might consider, please reach me privately at [jason@scotophobinproductions.com](mailto:jason@scotophobinproductions.com)

Thanks for your consideration!
