Welcome to the
an annual celebration of the art and entertainment of film in all its forms!

Excitement is building for the 2015
Nacogdoches Film Festival as coordinators round out panels and guest
appearances before theater lights dim
and projectors flicker on.
Scheduled for the last week in
February, organizers have brought big
changes and even bigger names to the
event now in its fourth year.

Directors, producers, novelists and
big wigs from various genres will attend, including director Jim Mickle.
He will accompany Nacogdoches native and noted author Joe Lansdale in
another Q-and-A following the screening of "Cold in July" — a book-to-film
adaptation of one of Lansdale's novels.
Another festival first this year is the

Movie Theater.
Kids and filmmaking
A first for the Nacogdoches Film
Festival is a filmmaking workshop for
children slated for Saturday morning.

"Many of us enjoy reading books and
watching movies," said Bruce Partain,
CEO and president of the Nacogdoches County Chamber of Commerce.
"It is wonderful to be part of an enthusiastic audience, but it is also great
to be an active participant, especially
when you are young. So, don't just read
books — write them. Don't just watch
films — make them."
"Visual storytelling is a learned skill
that makes use of angles, framing,
point of view, shot selection and editing," Partain said.
Professionals leading the workshop
include Dr. Casey Hart, SFA professor
who teaches broadcast video techniques. He and Dr. Linda Bond are
both faculty of the SFA Department of
Mass Communication, which is hosting
the workshop, added Partain. 

the 2015 Nacogdoches Film Festival

Kris Kristofferson — a singer,
songwriter, musician and actor known for hits “Me and Bobby
McGee” and “For the Good Times,”
among others.
“Kris is also a dear friend of mine
and Stephen was my business partner,” Fortin said. “Kris and I decided
to do the film about four years ago in order to
memorialize Stephen Bruton.”
The 2007 Road to Austin concert was one Fortin
said he produced and was Bruton’s last major
performance.
“Road to Austin was unveiled to an audience of
20,000 people in Austin, Texas,” the Road to Austin film website states. “The lineup was developed
to include multiple genres of music, including poetry and opera. The production attempted to blend
and blur this artistic diversity in order to deliver
many never-seen-before collaborations.”
Celebrity headliners included Kristofferson,
Bonnie Raitt, Delbert McClinton, Joe Ely, Ian
McLagan, Eric Johnson, Bobby Whitlock and

Film Synopsis
Road To Austin chronicles how Austin, Texas became the Live
Music Capital of the World, dating from 1835 to present. The
film highlights 1800s Austin, the psychedelic movement, Armadillo World Headquarters, and numerous iconic musical
inflection points that shaped the American musical culture of
today. Vintage photos, posters, and footage are presented to
a soundtrack that truly inspires! The film story line weaves
towards an all-star live performance featuring Kris Kristofferson, Bonnie Raitt, Delbert McClinton, Eric Johnson, Ian
McLagan, Joe Ely, and 40 other Artists led by Musical Director, Stephen Bruton. Kris Kristofferson dedicates this film to
Stephen Bruton.

them during their performances,” the
website says. “This event was designed
to create and capture a heightened level
of excitement towards understanding how and why Austin, Texas, has
become known as the live music capital
of the world.”
The “Road to Austin” film debuted
in March 2014 at Austin music festival
South by Southwest. Though the full
length film version runs three hours
and 40 minutes, Nacogdoches Film
Festival will screen a 75-minute festival
cut, Fortin said.
It was released on DVD and Blue
Ray in December.
“It’s been received amazingly all over
the world,” Fortin said, adding that 100
percent of the film’s profits go toward
creation of the Stephen Bruton memorial Artist Wellness Program and “delivering awareness towards bolstering
the quality of health and wellness to the
artist community,” the website states.
“The artist wellness program is based
on what we called biomarker testing,”
Fortin said. “Stephen died of cancer so
... the short of it is the artist wellness
program is designed for early detection
of life threatening diseases.”
Fortin has been in the visual art
community for about 35 years, he said.
He began as a professional fashion
photographer, living for several years
in Europe before moving to Austin in
1995.
He is also executive producer,
creative director and principal in the
Formax Group and will attend the
2015 Nacogdoches Film Festival. 

Director/Producer
Jenna grew up in teensy Jacksonville,
Texas. She went to college at Sam
Houston State University – and there
she met her mentor and friend, Dan
Rather. He grew her into a real journalist – and a more courageous individual
– and hired her shortly after graduation.
Jenna’s passion has always been telling
real stories about real people and she
started P+R Productions to do just that.
With a team like this one, the stories –
whether on television or the big screen
– will be beautiful, captivating and one
of a kind. She lives in Houston with her
twin boys (Parker and Rees, the original
P and R) and her husband, who is totally
supportive of her craziness.
Jenna won the News & Documentary
Emmy Award, “Outstanding Continuing
Coverage of a News Story in a News
Magazine” in 2012, for her work as
Producer on CBS News’ “48 Hours”
broadcast “Grave Injustice,” which
told the story of a Texas man who was
wrongfully convicted based on flawed
evidence for brutally murdering a family.

George R.R. Martin
BRINGS GAME OF
thrones to festival
Any fan of George R.R. Martin knows the longtime science
fiction author turned screenwriter knows all too well how to
keep an audience on the edge of its seat.
Killing off many of his fan’s favorite characters in the Game of
Thrones (GoT) book series, and now in the HBO television adaptation, has created an uproar among diehard devotees. Even so,
Martin’s fan base has exploded since his Game of Thrones books
came to life on the small screen.
And soon, Nacogdoches residents will have the opportunity to
listen to Martin as he shares insight into the writing process and
the growth of a fantasy empire during the 2015 Nacogdoches
Film Festival in March. The annual film festival is now in its
fourth year.
Martin recently spoke with The Daily Sentinel about his success and some of his history.
“It’s been a wild ride,” Martin said over the phone from his
office in Santa Fe. “I never could have anticipated the success of
Game of Thrones. You always hope the show will be successful,
but to be successful on this level is just amazing.”
Martin’s presence at the Nacogdoches Film Festival is directly
due to his friendship with Nacogdoches native and fellow author,
Joe Lansdale.
The two became acquainted “from the science fiction world
conventions and things like that,” Martin said. “I first came to a
Texas science fiction conviction in 1973, so I know quite a few of
the Texas writers — past and present — of science fiction and
fantasy and horror.”
Martin has jumped between writing mediums during his

‘Unique, talented’
panelists expected to
appear at film festival
By PAUL BRYANT
pbryant@dailysentinel.com
Nine panelists are scheduled to attend
the Nacogdoches Film Festival for a
forum on entertainment law and filmmaking on Feb. 26.
“All of these people have contributed
dramatically to the film business in one
way or another,” Nacogdoches author
Joe Lansdale said. “A lot of them are
behind the scenes who people don’t
notice. They just know the actors saying the lines. But so many people with
different abilities are contributing (to
film). I think it’s going to be marvelous
this year.”
Lansdale is one of the scheduled
panelists. His book, “Cold in July” was
adapted to film by director Jim Mickle.
It will premier on Feb. 27 at Carmike,
and a Q&A with both men will follow.

Lansdale agreed.
“I’ve known George Martin for (more
than) 30 years,” he said. “I’m excited he
is going to be here because he is going
to add to this. He’s been around a long
time — not just on Game of Thrones. I
think he is a big excitement right now. I
definitely think it’s going to be the biggest festival we’ve ever had.”

book series and producer and screenwriter for its HBO television series
adaptation by the same name, Martin is
scheduled to sign books at Hastings on
Feb. 28. “The Lion & the Rose: Game
of Thrones” will show that night at the
Baker Pattillo Student Center.
“I know the tickets are selling really
quickly,” Lansdale said. “There’s a lot of
talent at this one film festival, and it is
just going to continue to grow and gain
attention. It has always been my dream
for this to put Nacogdoches on the map.
We want to see Nacogdoches more and
more known for film.” 

Film Friendly Community Workshop
The Texas Film Commission, a division of the Office of the
Governor, will bring its Film Friendly Community workshop
to Nacogdoches, Texas at CBH Insurance (108 Hospital
St.). The day-long workshop is designed to give community
representatives the tools they need to market their communities
to on-location filming. Whether it's for a two-day television
commercial or a two-month feature film, the Texas Film
Commission wants every Texas community to be ready to
welcome filmmakers in a way that benefits its residents,
businesses and the community. The target audience is members
of city governments, Chambers of Commerce, Convention and
Visitors Bureaus and economic development personnel.
