Well, I said I would be doing more posts about this, and here you go!  This is the official start to a series of posts covering the 2014 Phoenix Film Festival.  All posts will also be cross-posted to rickyleepotts.com, so feel free to go pay him a visit too and see what other kind of stuff he’s got going on over there.

I had the opportunity to interview Jason Carney, Festival Director as well as Executive Director of the Phoenix Film Foundation, the non-profit organization behind the festival.  Here’s what Jason had to say.

Ok, so I realize that I haven’t really blogged too much in a while, and definitely not on a regular basis for a little while. But that is going to change. There are some things in the mix that you’ll soon get to see more of around here.

It’s almost that time again… Last year I spent almost a week volunteering at the Phoenix Film Festival, and this year’s festival is almost upon us. I chose to volunteer last year because I didn’t mind the time commitment and I wanted to see a bit more of what it was like behind the scenes. I really enjoyed the festival, and honestly, this year I didn’t want to devote the time required to volunteering, not because I didn’t enjoy it, but because I wanted more time to see more movies!
