WHY
SPONSOR?
A GOOD CAUSE
AND A GOOD TIME The Texas Film Hall of Fame has emerged
as one of Texas’ most noteworthy events.
Scheduled as the kick-off to the SXSW
Film Festival, participation at this event
puts your brand in front of Austin’s
industry leaders, tastemakers, decision
makers, national press and A-list
celebrities.
From youth education and funding for
film makers (over $1.3 million awarded
since 1996!), to bringing business and
cultural vibrancy to Austin, your
company’s presence supports the Austin
Film Society’s mission to enrich lives and
a community.
"Well, gosh, you know,
the Austin Film Society
does so much to
spread the good word
about what a great
place Texas is to make
movies, and so many
good movies have been
made here."

Who buys tables at
the Texas Film Hall
of Fame?
Think eco-local-luxury.
They drive the latest model hybrid, carry three
different mobile devices, and on any day may
be skiing in Aspen, diving off Belize, or
shopping at the newest South Congress
boutique. They get their friends together for
drinks at Uchi, run food pantry drives at their
child’s private school, root for the Longhorns
from box seats, and fill their kitchens with
organic produce. Come meet our crowd.
