On Saturday, July 10, 2010 the Ann Arbor Film Festival hosted a Cinemasports event at Ypsilanti’s biannual Shadow Art Fair. Cinemasports is a free, fun filmmaking challenge where self-assembled teams are required to include assigned "ingredients" into their 3-minute movie made in 10 hours or less.

Our 48th season was a festival of large, lively audiences, wild headlines, pre-show surprises, live performances, adventures onstage,lasting connections, and memorable programming. If you missed some of the action or want to revisit those moments, you can view highlights from the 48th on the AAFF's Flickr site. - Donald

Pitchfork.com recently featured Flying Lotus on their homepage for his Ann Arbor Film Festival world premiere live score performance to Harry Smith's avant-garde animation classic Heaven & Earth Magic. Pitchfork is one of the most widely read music sites in the world and certainly the first appearance there by the AAFF.

We're proud to present a new look for the AAFF in 2010. This new website design culminates a 6-month process with Pryor Design. Our new identity serves as a platform to support the films and talented artists that we showcase. Keep an eye out for new stickers, buttons, t-shirts and creative applications!  - Donald
