“The world’s first fully-curated 3D Film Festival (3DFF) has tapped Thomas Jane, star of “HUNG,” as host for this year’s film festival,” announced Festival Director, Christopher Crescitelli. Festival Dates are September 30 – October 3, 2010

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) – Sep 10, 2010 – “The world’s first fully-curated 3D Film Festival (3DFF) has tapped Thomas Jane as host for this year’s film festival,” announced Festival Director, Christopher Crescitelli today.

After traversing the globe on a world tour of more than 50 cities, the pioneering 3DFF, a technology festival, made its permanent home at The Los Angeles Film School.  LAFS has redesigned its academic program to include 3D technology education.

Thomas Jane currently stars on HBO’s critically-acclaimed comedy series, “HUNG,” which earned him a Golden Globe nomination.  Jane has just wrapped production on “LOL,” a comedy starring Miley Cyrus, Ashley Greene and Demi Moore. He has also executive produced and finished production on an indie thriller directed by Mark Pellington called, “I MELT WITH YOU,” in which he starred opposite Rob Lowe and Jeremy Piven.

Most recently, Jane made his directorial debut with “DARK COUNTRY,” a 3D psycho-noir feature in which he starred with Ron Perlman and Lauren German. Crescitelli stated, “Jane has proven to be quite an advocate of 3D filmmaking. He has produced, written, directed, and starred in 3D films with several other projects in the pipeline.  We knew he had the right voice to represent the festival and all the filmmakers therein.”

In addition to his busy career as an actor and filmmaker, Jane founded Raw Studios in partnership with Eisner Award-nominated illustrator/production designer, Tim Bradstreet.  Raw Studios is a leading producer of high end, “elevated genre” graphic novels.                

Besides being Master of Ceremonies during the Opening & Closing nights, Jane will function as an ambassador of the festival to filmmakers, studios, and press throughout the four days of screenings and filmmaking workshops and panels.

The 3D Film Festival, presented by RealD and The Los Angeles Film School, is produced by the 3D live event pioneer, The Dream Factory.  3DFF will feature four days of events spread out over five city blocks with screenings, workshops, panels and red carpet premieres which are taking place at the Los Angeles Film School.

3DFF will announce its full line-up of nightly screenings next week which will include the 3ology Short Film Program and a nightly 3D Horror Film Showcase at Midnight. The Festival will open on Thursday, September 30th.
