Triangle 1

Part of a project that I am working on about Bowen Family Systems Theory. This video introduces the concept of the triangle. Any feedback is appreciated.

It was created in After Effects CS3 and Premiere Pro CS3 for those interested in that sort of thing.

Thank you, I'm working on putting several short videos together to explain the idea of the triangle in Bowen Family Therapy.

Very well done! My take on triangulation is that it often isn't a good thing and it seems that this in some ways implies it is good/useful. I know it is sometimes, but as a rule, I thought the goal was to detriangulate?

Thanks for posting this, and mentioning that it could also be work related. That helps me a lot.

I agree, it is part of the difficulty I am finding in this project. But having said that, a lot of the literature that I have read from Bowen and Michael Kerr do break it down into it's different aspects, and that is what I am trying to do here. It is my belief that it is difficult to understand any part of the theory without first understanding the triangle.
