Festival History

The vision of the Foursite Film Festival was born in March 2004 when Scott Halford, an undergraduate student at Weber State University (WSU), produced a film he wanted others to see. Halford organized the festival so that he could show his film to a larger audience in a high quality setting.

During the first two seasons, the festival went by the name “Just Another Film Festival,” and was hosted in the Wildcat Theatre at WSU. In order to make the event more attractive, other filmmakers were invited to submit their films. There were more submissions than time permitted to be screened during the first year. Submissions came from all over the U.S. and Canada. In its second year, the festival was extended to a three-day event. Nevertheless, there still was not enough time to screen all the films submitted and once again the festival attracted international submissions.

Due to the increasing success of the festival, Halford moved the location of the festival to Peery’s Egyptian theatre in historic downtown Ogden and changed the name to “Foursite Film Festival” to reflect his optimistic view on the future of independent cinema.

Mission and Vision

The mission of the Foursite Film Festival is to open the vision and inspiration of cinema to the community by presenting quality films for people of all ages.

Scott Halford, the founder and director of the festival, said, “In preparation for the upcoming season, we have undergone some dynamic changes to ensure healthy growth and sustainability.” Some of those changes include: new partnerships with local foundations, and the creation of a student outreach and education program.
