wellbeing
The team at BECTU Vision have all worked in film and TV and we understand first-hand that the long working hours and high pressure environments can have an impact on our emotional wellbeing.
Many roles demand prolonged periods of static positioning, leading to common issues like neck and shoulder tension, headaches, and back pain. This discomfort not only affects physical wellbeing but also hampers concentration and productivity.
Working with experts, we’ve created some practical tools to help support and build your emotional and physical resilience.
EMOTIONAL WELLBEING
We’re working with Positive Psychologist, Michelle White, of 6ft From the Spotlight, to create a handy guide of practical tools to help build your emotional resilience. This poster accompanies Michelle’s Emotional Resilience training course which we deliver regularly as part of our Freelance Foundations packages of training.

If you or someone you know is struggling with their emotional wellbeing, view our padlet of support available.
PHYSICAL WELLBEING
To address the physical challenges of film and TV industry jobs, BECTU Vision has collaborated with Osteopath, Andrew Patterson of Framework Clinics to offer an on-set warm-up session for film and TV crews which can take place during lunchtime at the unit base, production offices or other appropriate locations. Get in touch if you’d like to arrange a visit.
We’ve partnered with Andrew to create a series of exercises aimed at preventing postrual strain, including stretches that can be performed on set, at your dest or at home – download the poster below.
