As the video producer for the Australian Dental Association’s Dental Rescue Day at Rockingham Dental Center, I had the opportunity to capture the important work being done by dental professionals in improving oral health in the community for free.
The video production was executed without any plan as it was real patients with real doctors. To ensure that all aspects of the event were captured effectively I worked fast. During the event, I used a variety of filming techniques to capture the procedures being carried out and the interactions between the dental team and patients.
The high point of the production was when I was able to capture some emotional moments of patients who at times had received oral care for the first time in their life.
It was a rewarding experience to produce a video that would promote oral health and highlight the important work being done by dental professionals in the community.
