The Most Exciting Christian Film Event in the World!

The Most Exciting Christian Film Event in the World!

Don't miss the Action, in San Antonio, January 5-10!

I sincerely hope you've been made aware of the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival; if not, be sure to find out all about them, on the official website.

The SAICFF has the honor of hosting the largest cash prize in the world, as well as being the largest Christian film festival in the world. Aspiring culture-changers, film enthusiasts, and families looking for more from their entertainment, gather together for a power-packed week in San Antonio.

The three days of the film academy (Jan. 5-7) and the three days of the film festival (8-10) are mind-boggling. It's like taking a drink from a fire hose; the amount of teaching and information you receive in such a short period of time is unparalleled.

However, if you are unable to attend, chances are you still want to stay up to date with on the minute updates from the festival. Between all the media producers represented at the festival, many will be keeping their friends and readers updated with photo's, video clips, and minute by minute updates of the awards ceremony on Saturday night.

I'll be trying to keep this blog updated with new photo content every day from both the academy and the festival, but this will certainly not be the only place for great content; so I'm putting together a list of great festival news resources.

Isaac Harris

In previous years, Alex and Brett Harris of TheRebelution.com were the official reporters of the SAICFF, with multiple photo or video posts a day, with interviews, reviews, and news about the festival, including the awards ceremony. This year, they've turned it over to their brother Isaac. With hundreds of daily readers, there is little doubt that TheRebelution will be the #1 source of live festival news, and this year, you can trust Isaac to bring you up to speed on the festival.

Jeremiah Warren

Jeremiah Warren is known for maintaining the 'SaicffSemiSites.com' website, and was a great team member on the set of The Widow's Might, bringing you up to the day behind-the-scenes videos from our production. Jeremiah will be using the 'Twitter' service to provide up to the minute live updates from the festival, Jan 8-10'th. So for twitter members, this is a no-brainer.

Nathaniel Bluedorn

Nathaniel Bluedorn, well known for his website 'TriviumPursuit', is the founder of the 'ChristianFilmmakers.org' community, a tremendous resource for Christians interested in being involved in media. Out of the 800+ member base at CF.org, a goodly number will be attending the SAICFF and Academy. Nathaniel is also a talented photographer, and will be posting these photos to his profile on Facebook.com. If you have a facebook account, definitely go request Nathaniel as your friend, so you can see his updates. Just be sure to let him know that you're adding him for the sake of seeing the festival photos.

ChristianFilmmakers.org

ChristianFilmmakers.org has a huge member base; like I said, 800+. The members of CF.org who will be attending the festival, will be posting photos and updates to the CF.org forums constantly. I would highly recommend checking them out, and sticking around for any interesting stories. After all, no single news source can provide all the details of the festival; but with the hundreds of members that are attending the festival this year, there will be a lot of interesting facts and information posted through the week, and afterwards! Plus, it's a good excuse for you to go sign up and get acquainted with the community.

With all these tremendous resources, there is no need for you to stay in the dark on this spectacular event. If there is still a chance for you to go, by all means, go. I am not exaggerating when I say that the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival has absolutely changed my life, and the lives of all my friends. I suspect it will continue to do so for a great many more people over the coming years.

Ready or Not, San Antonio; Here we Come!!
