Abstract

This research creation project uses the methodology of reflective practice as presented by Donald Schön (1983), with adaptations regarding the production of a creative project as proposed by Steven Scrivener (2000) and with the inclusion of active documentation as presented by Nancy De Freitas (2002). As a reflective practitioner, I examine how the roles of artist, producer, researcher, teacher and entertainer contribute to the creation of art educational videos designed for children ages 9-12. The project consists of three research cycles, each with the focus of producing a short, 10-20 minute, episode of The Art Room.
