Living Children Multimedia wins at Flash Forward 2004 - Eric Bort

Living Children Multimedia picked up its first major award (Education Category) on March 4th at the 2004 San Francisco Flash Forward Film Festival.

The awarded project, Virtual Knee Surgery, raised a decent amount of noise from the film festival crowd as the movie trailer of bone saws, scalpels, and femoral jigs played on the big screen.

After the winner was announced, Living Children owner and Creative Director Eric Bort shook hands with the two founders of the Flash Forward festivals, and was handed a five-pound orange rubber mouse pointer to commemorate the glorious evening.

After the event, present members of Living Children Multimedia hurried back to their hotel room to catch the latest episode of 'The Apprentice' as undoubtedly all small business owners were doing the same.
