Still Standing also won the prestigious Jury Award at the Seventh Annual Media That Matters Film Festival and Emmy Award-winning Director Ric Burns presented EVC�s youth producers with the Jury Award at the Seventh Annual Media That Matters Film Festival in New York City in May saying, �Of all the films honored tonight, none touched the jury more than the eight minute film you just saw, Still Standing.
