If you're at all connected to the filmmaking industry in the South -- or filmmaking in general -- you've probably already heard of "Slates for Sarah," a social media tribute to the late Sarah Elizabeth Jones. Jones, a Camera Assistant who lived in Atlanta, was in Savannah earlier this month working on the set of Midnight Rider when she was struck and killed by a train. Online recollections from her colleagues and friends in the South and around the world echo the remembrances sent to us here at the Festival from locals who knew her and worked with her. 

The 38th Annual Atlanta Film Festival will open with "Joe," starring Nicolas Cage as an ex-con and unlikely role model who meets a 15-year-old boy (Tye Sheridan) and is faced with the choice of redemption or ruin. Director David Gordon Green ("Pineapple Express," television's "Eastbound & Down") is scheduled to attend. Closing out this year’s fest is "The Double," a stylish black comedy starring Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska. Eisenberg plays Simon James, a timid man living an isolated existence in an indifferent world until his exact physical double and opposite personality arrives in the form of new co-worker, James Simon. "The Double" is directed by cult favorite Richard Ayoade ("Submarine," television’s “The IT Crowd").

Women In Film & Television Atlanta (WIFTA) is hosting its annual Oscar party on Sunday March 2, 2014 at Shout, starting at 6:00p! You're invited.

One of only a handful of Academy Award-qualifying festivals in the United States, the Atlanta Film Festival has long championed short films. For the 2014 event the organization received 2,212 short film submissions, 84 of which will be shown during the festival.

ATLFF 2013 selection Cinema Six (a raunchy comedy about what happens when you work for too long at a movie theater) is now available on iTunes and other home video sites. Co-writer/director Mark Potts sends this video reminiscence of his time at the Atlanta Film Festival and what we're pretty sure is a description of a detour he took to the Clermont Lounge.

Out of 352 submissions and 16 finalists, the writers of three winning scripts were chosen to participate in a two-day retreat during this year's festival, held at the Callanwolde Fine Arts Center.

Renowned screenwriter and friend of ATLFF Michael Lucker is return to Georgia State Campus to host a session of his one-of-a-kind Screenwriter School. Interested in writing a feature screenplay? Sign up today!
