Los Angeles - UCLA Extension Student Film maker Micheal Rutherford was awarded first prize for his winning entry in BREATHE LA PSA film contest, "Emily Has Asthma." His 30-second PSA presents an emotionally appealing message on how children can take control of their asthma.
Contest submissions addressing "What should a kid do during an asthma attack?" came in from across the country, but filmmaker and UCLA student Michael Rutherford's piece differentiated itself from the others with its accurate, compelling content.
