On a sunny winter\u2019s day video creator Josh Janssen<\/a> set out to capture the story of Hearth founder Justin Scanlon\u2019s passion and commitment.<\/span><\/p>\n But the day delivered much more for Josh and everyone involved with the shoot \u2013 thanks to Justin\u2019s son, the spirited, indefatigable Tristan Scanlon.<\/span><\/p>\n First came the learning.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cTristan has Cerebral Palsy,\u201d Josh explains.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cCerebral Palsy is something I had little exposure to \u2013 I still have to use spellcheck every time I type it out. And my lack of knowledge in the area extended well beyond its spelling.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Josh\u2019s experience isn\u2019t unusual.<\/span><\/p>\n Even though Cerebral Palsy is the most common physical childhood disability in Australia with an estimated <\/span>700 new cases each year<\/span><\/a>, there remain gaps when it comes to understanding cerebral palsy. This is not just in the broader community, but in the specialist world of scientific research as well. So, the work there continues.<\/span><\/p>\n For Josh though, meeting Tristan and his dad Justin, and bringing to life on screen a special Australian story resonated strongly. It tapped into his passion for sharing stories with the public which he has done for over ten years. \u201cIn my job as a video creator, I\u2019m lucky to be exposed to new people and places on a regular basis. The camera is a unique tool that opens doors and people; it provides permission to ask questions that I normally wouldn\u2019t feel comfortable asking,\u201d Josh said.<\/span><\/p>\n
