Tutorial Five: Video Production Sessions

My second fieldwork placement as a first year Occupational Therapy student was at Arts for Health. Here I was able to join in the daily creative ideas of about 3-6 weekly clients.


This video shows this ladies process of making a card. At Arts for Health they did not make cards with this equipment but this video shows this card makers choices and thinking around the task. She talks about her ideas on how she wants the card to look and her preference. A lot of the clients liked to express their ideas and what they found appealing when making their cards.


This video shows one of the popular crafts at Arts for Health. Many clients made magazine holders as gifts for friends and family.


This video content relates to Arts for Health as both of my supervisors there are very talented and regularly showed clients tips about painting and how to paint.


As this placement used Art and Craft as rehabilitation, many of the clients chose to use colours they enjoyed or that made them feel better when painting.


Many of the clients preferred to draw at Arts for Health. One client chose to draw nature. He was very good at it and paid a lot of attention to detail. His work was amazing!

Through use of these activities in this setting, clients who attend and share their creativity at Arts for Health are able to to experience relief and rehabilitation, as well as enjoyment.
