http://www.aypsite.com/plus-forum/index.php?topic=1154The Secrets of Wilder movie and AYP Practice Videos are now two separate discussions.
--------------------
I would do it differently and film how to videos on your books. You have a million repeat questions when it would be easier for people to purchase a video/dvd and see a person perform asana, proper mantra vocalization, fernum snipping, or the millions of other concerns/questions that cannot be explained in your books or online - such as, 'What is the proper way to vocalize the 'I AM' Mantra?', 'How do I perform kechari mudra?', et al. And the great thing is that you already wrote the books, so it wouldn't be hard to put it into script format, esp with the software available, such as the most popular movie magic and final draft.
Maybe you could super impose (SUPER) or do a voice over (VO) at the beginning of your videos: 'Yogani chooses to remain anonymous so individuals learn to listen to their self within, or their own inner guru, as he affectionately calls it, and favors self instruction over teacher reliance by retraining the body/mind with ancient techniques proven to...' or whatever.
I think it would be good if you did an interview style format, and then went into the practice, ie (script style for you, yogani, LOL:
:
NARRATOR/OR INTERVIEWER
Yogani, what is the purpose of the 'I AM' Mantra compared to other mantras?
YOGANI
The purpose of the I AM mantra is linear, meaning that yada yada...
NARRATOR
What is the correct way to vocalize the mantra?
In lotus pose, a PRACTIONER sits on a blanket at the -
EXT. BEACH - DAY
Foamy waves gently lap a smooth shoreline...
YOGANI, VO
Their is no right or wrong way to vocalize the mantra, but it's important to keep the attention focused on...
The practioner's hands gently rest within her lap, as the sun shines on her serene face. With eyes closed, a soft wind blows through her 'pony tailed' hair...
PRACTIONER
I AM, I AM, I AM...
YOGANI, VO
...without forcing... notice how the mantra is vocalized effortlessly...
NARRATOR, VO
Is it necessary to be in lotus pose? To be choose a quiet location, such as the beach?
PRACTIONER
(faded into the background)
I AM, I AM, I AM...
YOGANI, VO
No, it's not necessary to perform asana for this particular exercise... It is beneficial to choose a quiet time of the day, whether at home, the office, park, beach...
And then move back to the narrator and discuss experiences and what can be expected, non-attachment to these experiences, et al...
Anyway, I think it's a better idea until you got a large enough audience base so that
The Secrets of Wilder would stand a better chance of getting attention.
Anyway, good luck with it, regardless of what you choose to do:
