"In the six years we've been ranking the best places to be an indie moviemaker, the city has cracked the top five every year without breaking a sweat. But unlike what you may hear about those laidback Texans, popularity has not bred complacency with these folks. Each year, the Austin Film Commission manages to outdo itself in bringing exciting new programs and initiatives to the city, from the smallest to the biggest."
