VAIL FILM FESTIVAL LAUNCHES NEW WEBSITE
New York, NY — The Vail Film Institute announced today that it has launched its new, redesigned website at www.vailfilmfestival.org. The new site features a complete redesign to reflect the new visual identity developed for the third annual Vail Film Festival, to be held March 30 – April 2, 2006.
The site has also been reorganized to better enable users from different constituencies to quickly find the information they seek, whether they be festivalgoers, filmmakers, the press, or sponsors or partners. The site features online festival pass purchasing; festival program, travel, and lodging information; online film submission; and detailed information for the press and existing and prospective corporate sponsors and partners.
The launch of the new VFF website is the initial milestone in what will be an aggressive marketing campaign for the 2006 VFF.
