Founded in 2004 by award-winning animator and director, Lee Lanier, the
Dam Short Film Society promotes the art of short filmmaking by
presenting a broad showcase of films in various genres. Lanier serves as
the festival's executive director but previously was a senior animator
at Dreamworks/PDI on high-profile films such as Antz and Shrek.
John LaBonney
is the current director of the festival after being appointed to the
position in March 2011. His film, Barn Dance, was a 2009 Official
Selection in this festival.
The schedule
this year is jam packed with exciting films, filmmaker panels, meet
& greets, mixers, and the always-packed gala evening with red carpet
arrivals, award presentation, and screening of winning films.
Films are
screened throughout the day and evening and packaged into genre groups
including documentary, drama, animation, avant-garde, Sci-Fi, and a
Nevada filmmakers group too. More than 120 films are screened throughout
the four-day event in the historic Boulder Theatre.
The complete schedule for the festival is now online here. Tickets will be available online for purchase or directly at the box office. See you at the festival!
