Info
The Slamdance Film Festival is an annual film festival focused on emerging artists. The annual week-long festival takes place in Park City, Utah in late January and is the main event organized by the year-round Slamdance organization which also hosts a screenplay competition, workshops, screenings throughout the year and events with an emphasis on independent films with unverified budgets under $1 Million USD. The festival was founded in 1995 by Dan Mirvish, Jon Fitzgerald, Shane Kuhn, and Peter Baxter, along with Paul Rachman, after they had been unsuccessful in submitting films to the Sundance Film Festival. Baxter has been in charge of Slamdance since 1997.
