The Action On Film International Film Festival, also known as the Action On Film Festival, was founded in 2004 by Del Weston. Initially held in Long Beach, California, the festival later moved to Pasadena, Monrovia, and then to the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas in 2017. While its name suggests a focus on action films, the festival accepts all major genres including comedy, drama, animation, documentary, and experimental projects. It has become an official distributor to SHORTS.TV and programs feature films for several independent theaters. The festival also includes a writer's event and accepts various forms of media beyond films, such as music, lyrics, poetry, and photography.
