It's all about the party - the after party! Every night offered fantastic after hour diversions. It started with the VIP Opening Night party at Bang Bang and ended with the Filmmakers Bash at SummerSalt Rooftop Pool & Lounge. In between was the Tribute Night reception at the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla and the Almost Famous party at the decadent Pussycat Dolls San Diego Dollhouse in the Gaslamp. After Party On!
There's always a great vibe at the SD Film Festival. Not dissimilar to the laid back, easy going attitude that is San Diego's hallmark. Celebs mingle with fans, guests become celebs, everyone's a star....

The Script
What is a film festival without the glamor and glitz of the red carpet? A lot less fun, for sure, especially when you're working behind the scenes. The red carpet and all that entails sets the tone for the festival and festivities. Here's a glimpse at a few moments around the red carpet events at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and at the Reading Theater in the Gaslamp District.
