Filmmaking as a Meaningful Occupation

Any OT can make student films. We promise.

Who doesn't love shooting video? Turning video into a film is an epic endeavor. What better way to integrate art and education and occupational therapy than filmmaking? It ignites the joy of learning and doing in amazing ways and anyone can do it if they try!

Filmmaking is a motivating, strengths-based project that occupational therapists in school settings can do with their students. As an activity, filmmaking is inherently meaningful to students because it’s fun, social, and produces a gratifying end result that leaves a lasting impression. In our courses and individualized consultations, learn how to make films with your students while incorporating OT interventions that support independence, self-determination, and social participation. Buckle up for an adventure.
