When Austin Film Festival and Screenwriters Conference began in 1993, the goal was to bring greater recognition to screenwriters through panels and exciting film events. Now in its third decade, we remain dedicated to unique programming, with panels that address both new developments in media, as well as the core elements of screenwriting and filmmaking.
