Heya Folks,
A little bit of a different post from us.
As many of you know, Nicole, our producer and co-founder, has been studying a Bachelor of Psychology with the aim to better understand the increased rates of burnout, distress and su***de in the Australian Creative Industries.
She graduates in 4 months and is currently working on her Honours Research Thesis, which is exploring recovery experiences of workers in the creative industries.
How do we switch off and recover from work stress when our hobbies and passions are our work? How do we look after ourselves, if at all?
She is conducting a short, 15 minute survey to examine this and needs participants. It has full ethics approval, is completely anonymous. She is being supervised by Dr Jacob Keech and Griffith University's School of Psychology
If you are living in Australia and working (paid, unpaid or studying) in any area of the creative industries, you will qualify for her research. This includes film-makers, writers, directors, illustrators, dancers, actors, comedians, circus performers, photographers, visual artists, below the line crew, post production crew, creative directors, game developers and anything in between.
Below is the link for you to complete the survey and find out more info.
She is hoping for 500+ participants in the next two weeks, so far, she has around 80.
Please feel free to share amongst your networks, on socials and within your workplace.
Thanks in advance!
