Tutorial Four..!





My group and I decided to do a one minute film on,occupational deprivation. "Occupational deprivation is a relatively new term which describes a state in which people are precluded from opportunities to engage in occupations of meaning due to factors outside their control"( Whiteford, 2000).We did a brainstorm of how to portray this in a one minute and to be non verbal. We all agreed on a quote that has been used in field work placement regarding occupational deprivation. If you draw it for me, if you cut it for me, if you paint it for me, all I learn is that you can do it better than me. A story board was promptly drawn up, scenes were chosen and tasks were divided. The next day with the story board and correct tools to film the movie (camera, tripod, room for filming and equipment) our team was ready to take on the filming. There was a main actor trying to cut, draw and paint, then each of the group had a turn of taking each occupation away from the main actor. We took six different takes and uploaded them onto the computer, edited the film, added music and it was done. We used a mixed method of delivery, using still picture and motion picture to deliver our message to keep the time down but to still show the message of of occupational deprivation.
