Telluride Film
Telluride Film is a premier film festival known for creating an outstanding experience for its guests — film lovers from around the world. This experience includes a tightly curated list of films, shown in a great location, by passionate staff, with well-written insights and materials and a dedication to quality.
In 2008 the festival directors approached me to explore a mobile solution to augment the existing printed program that enables attendees to navigate the what, when and where of festival films. A long-time attendee, I had internalized many of the issues myself, and a time- and location-based mobile solution made complete sense.
