The first-ever Marco Island Film Festival brought 30 feature films, 18 short films and 80 student films to the island in October.
Organizers sold several hundred $250 five-day passes for the event, and filmmakers and film buffs alike poured onto the island. Many of the filmmakers participated in panel discussions and question-and-answer sessions about their films, which were heavily attended.
The festival included a tribute to Oscar-winning songwriter Tim Rice, professional workshops and a beach front theater with the screens hung on the side of a panel truck. Crowd estimates for the weekend ran at about 10,000 people.
