What's Next? SCIA Educational Video

SCIA came to PME to film the driving controls section of their educational videos

Filming for the SCIA 'What's Next?' videos at the PME premisesSpinal Cord Injuries Australia (SCIA) is currently in the process of filming a series of videos titled 'what's next?' to be used to educate those with newly acquired spinal cord injuries on what to do to return to their normal lives as much as possible, as soon as possible. The videos cover a range of areas from home modification to wheelchair skills. A section of the video is to be devoted to vehicle modifications and SCIA came to PME for our assistance.

At 9AM Friday 5th August the film crew arrived at the PME premises with a full day of filming to follow. The crew shot explanatory videos  covering all manner of hand controls, electronic controls, hoists, self-drive vehicles, the ABI loader and more with a little help from PME and OT Tom Eley. Take a look at some of the 'behind the scenes' shots from the day in the gallery below.

We're looking forward to seeing the final result and the difference it will make to its audience. It can be an extremely disorientating time and it's great that there are organisations like SCIA working to make the process that much easier.
