Video Intervention/Prevention Assessment (VIA) is grounded in themes central to applied anthropology and combined with selective threads of visual, medical, and media anthropology. VIA emphasizes the use of a multifunctional channel of audiovisual communication in the roles of information and cultural brokerage. Young patients were instructed to follow a specified protocol to “teach your clinician about your illness” by using consumer model videocams in their homes, neighborhoods, schools, work, church, and events of their own selection. They could also make a series of diaristic “personal monologues.” This article discusses improved patient‐physician understanding of patients' medical condition and subsequent improvement of treatment protocols through VIA. VIA projects feature a discovery‐oriented research approach, multidisciplinary work settings, and the analysis of qualitative data. The audiovisual data was logged and analyzed by a multidisciplinary research team using grounded theory and NVivo qualitative analysis software. VIA yielded information that differed from standard clinical data gathering strategies. Patients' issues, concerns, priorities, and value systems varied significantly from those of their clinicians. Patients who dedicated themselves to completing this video project later demonstrated a firmer grasp on the the control of their own symptoms and treatment programs
