In the last few years Flat World Media Productions has built a great and lasting relationship with Magee Rehabilitation Hospital. It started with the REACH program, developing two videos for internal employee training and recognition. Then it blossomed into a short training video for wheel chair transitions and mobility which was sent over seas to Iraq for use in there newly reestablished rehabilitation centers designed for the citizens who suffered neglect and injury during the war. That video also found it's way into Africa and other countries who could benefit from it's information.

We followed up with a multipurpose welcome to Magee video which explored the inner workings and functions of the hospital and staff and have photographed several events incuding the Friends of Jerry Segal Classic Golf outing and fundraiser. Jerry, who's contributions have aided the hospital in so many great ways, and who has endured for over twenty years with limited mobility, recently returned to Magee himself for rehabilitation. Flat World Media Productions was brought in to document his recovery and develop a new video for the Jerry Segal Classic this year.

If that wasn't enough, a grant from Kessler Rehabilitation Hospital allowed for us to start production on a new four-part video series called, “A Day in the Life.” It show what real city life is like for someone in a wheelchair. The project was conceived by Anna Martin, a Therapist at Magee and the life of the party if you where ever to meet here. Here is her blog entry on the first day of shooting! Betsy Von Awesome
