“Childrens Cancer Videos”

Back in the mid 1980s Stephen and Roger Guertin made a series of video productions. This included 6 videos to teach kids about their cancer, its investigation and treatment. These were for 3 different age groups: preschool, primary and secondary school age. They also created videos on general diagnosis; Leukaemia and Cancer, with 3 different versions of animation. These were principally filmed over a 3 week shoot with a BBC film crew.

They also created “The Hospital Fairy Story”, writen by Roger, telling the story of a young person’s first trip into hospital which starred Roger’s son Edward. A video was also made about a young person experiencing Bone Marrow Transplantation

It was these videos which won one international and two national awards:

  • Royal Television Society Award
  • Gold Camera Award
  • Cancer Care Award
