About me: The 9th Annual Ashland Independent Film Festival is scheduled for April 8-12, 2010. Over 6000 cinema lovers gather each year and filmmakers of the documentaries, features and shorts come from around the world come to engage with the audience. The AIFF features filmmaker Q/A after screenings, Opening Night Bash and Award Celebration parties with local wine, beer and gourmet food, and the nightly afterLOUNGE at a local pub. Special guests have included Helen Hunt, Albert Maysles, Bruce Campbell and more.
Our festival takes place on the five screens of the intimate art-deco Varsity Theatre and at the Historic Ashland Armory - within a few blocks of each other in historic downtown Ashland, Oregon. Complimentary lodging is provided for all filmmakers, almost always within a short walking distance of our venues and the many fine shops and restaurants located downtown.
Each year, over 90% of the seats at the ashland independent film festival are filled for all five days. More than two-thirds of all shows sell out in theatres packed with intelligent, engaged, and arts-oriented audiences, even at 10 a.m. In 2009, 6,500 film-goers purchased over 16,000 tickets to 94 feature, documentary and short films. For more information visit www.ashlandfilm.org.
Ashland is included in the popular travel guide A Thousand Places to See Before You Die and Shawn Levy, of The Oregonian newspaper, said the AIFF "offers movie lovers that same sense of being in a magical place...Southern Oregon doesn't have anything else like it -- nor, in fact, do most places on Earth.”
Ashland Independent Film Festival passes are available now here
In addition to ten juried and audience awards, the AIFF holds The Launch, a free film competition for students from across Southern Oregon. One of last years winners went on to screenings at international film festivals. Winners in each of the age categories, K-5, 6-8, 9-12, and college, are featured at the festival.
Our Mission: The Southern Oregon Film Society is dedicated to presenting independent film through the annual ashland independent film festival and providing cultural and educational events in the region year round.
Whether you're a filmmaker or a film lover, we hope you'll join us April 8-12, 2010 for next year's exciting festival!

Hey Friends, it's me, Flowmotion & the Meltdown Festival.
Just wanted to remind everyone, the festival is coming up in about two weeks or so. Ticket prices will be higher at the gate so now is the time to buy them. 30+ bands on three stages, camping on 40 acres next to the river and epic views of glacier capped Whitehorse Mountain from the stage. It's about 75 minutes north of Seattle in Darrington WA. This is going to be one of the best years yet, so please tell all your friends and help spread the Meltdown word! Visit the official site at www.summermeltdown.com

Hey friend of Flowmotion, Can you help us spread the word about tomorrows show in Ashland? Apparently the Mobius got temporarily shut down for a liquor violation of some sort, so we have moved our show for Friday the 9th to the Jackson WellSprings. Please, if you were planning on coming, let all your friends know of this change. Thanks so much.
Hey friend of Flowmotion, we'll be in your neck of the woods on Friday May 9th at the The Mobius in Ashland, OR. Hope you can make it out and party with us.
Great job on another wonderful festival! It's always over way too quick, never get to see all the movies I wanted. I missed being a part of it as a filmmaker, hopefully I'll have something for you next year.
