AT&T is proud to work with AFI FEST

By Manon Banta Contributing Writer

As a pioneer in deploying three-screen media - mobile, internet and television - AT&T decided this year to be a sponsor of the AFI Film Festival, believing the festival to be a unique opportunity to support the artists that create the original content they distribute. As a premium sponsor, AT&T will be shooting and producing exclusive videoon- demand content from the festival for visitors to its fast-growing online portal, AT&T Blue Room and to AT&T U-verse TV customers. They see this partnership with AFI FEST as another way they are enhancing their customers' entertainment experience. As Sean Lashley from AT&T Corporate Communications explains;

"AT&T is proud to work with icons like AFI who have, for years, been leaders in the recognition and celebration of excellence in the art of film, television and digital media."
