{ 2011 Texas Film Fest }
Texas Film Festival will be held Friday, April 1, 2011 to Sunday April 3, 2011 in Rudder Theater. The festival brings independent films and unique creative visions to the Texas A&M community. Screenings each night on the big screen include a little over an hour of selected short films followed by a premiere feature film.
Many of the filmmakers will be in attendance and question and answer sessions will follow many of the segments for audience and artist interaction. There will also be additional short film screenings, panels, and workshops with filmmakers during the day on Saturday and Sunday in Rudder Tower. Many of the short films have either been accepted at other film festivals around the country or are winners of various awards. Tickets, which include all events of a single day, and Festival Badges, which covers everything across all three days, are now on sale at the MSC Box Office and online.The film selections are now posted under the lineup page, & the press release and other promotional materials can be found here.
