Our friends at Fuel TV invited us to help create and curate a new annual festival dedicated to celebrating West Coast Creative Culture through art, film, music and action sports. The three-day festival took place at Hollywood's hilltop Barnsdall Art Park with panoramic views of the city, the historic Vista Theater and the Echoplex. We assembled an A-Team to make the magic happen that included HunterGatherer, Aaron Rose and Spaceland. Among the highlights: the U.S. Premiere of Doug Pray's Surfwise, West Coast Premiere of Anton Corbijn's Control, a special screening of Beautiful Losers, art installations from Mike Mills, Geoff McFetridge, Thomas Campbell, Sage Vaughn and live music performances by We Are Scientists, the Black Angels, Bonde Do Role and much more.

In 2000 the first RESFEST took place in Seoul Korea, seven years later Flux's Jonathan Wells returned to Seoul with invited guests Tommy Pallotta and Lana Kim of the Directors Bureau to help end the festival there on a bang. The eighth RESFEST Seoul, produced and directed by Jae Soh, included a special screening of Richard Linklater's A Scanner Darkly, a Roman Coppola Retrospective and a Flux-curated music video program. In keeping with the 2007 RESFEST Seoul cooking themed identity, Flux designed a hilarious mock cooking lesson to spice up the Looking Back at the Future panel discussion.

To kick-off the summer Flux threw a backyard BBQ in the brand new Amautalab Gallery in Culver City. Flux literally transformed the white box gallery into a backyard with 2,000 square feet of fresh sod, trees and fencing. Guest DJs Mark Rae and Kiino Villand rocked the decks and we featured art installations by Andrezza Valentin, Sundayland and Perry Hoberman. Of course no BBQ is complete without yummy food, cold beer, juice and mixed drinks (thanks to Sapporo, Izze and Tito's Vodka).

Protoclip, an annual French festival that celebrates the art of music video, invited Flux to curate and present an international program of year's best music videos. Michel Gondry serves as the "Godfather" of the festival, which takes place in Sèvres, a suburb of Paris. While we were there we were excited to see a screening of Scopitones, the forerunner of music videos which shown on video jukeboxes in bars in the 1960's; and the second ever screening of Anton Corbijn's amazing film Control, which screened as the closing night film.

Flux brought the Los Angeles creative community together to celebrate an evening of film at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. The centerpiece of the evening was the World Premiere of L.A. Suite directed by Marc Webb. The event included screenings of award-winning short films and music videos, food and drinks, live jazz, and guest DJs Mark Rae (Rae & Christian) and Kiino Villand. On arrival guests were treated to a hosted cocktail hour in the lobby. The historic Blossom Room (home to the first Academy Awards) was transformed into a 400-seat movie theater with a massive wide-screen. After the screening guests were ushered to the poolside after-party at the Tropicana.

In July 2007, MTV Japan presented the creativity conference Creative Treasure Box at Tokyo's Omotesando Hills. The event featured presentations from international MTV creative directors and filmmakers. Flux brought Olivier Gondry for his first time ever to Tokyo to participate as the keynote speaker of the conference.

To launch the World Tour artist documentary commissioned by Stussy and Nike, Flux produced invite-only screenings in four cities in three countries. Each screening was followed by an artist panel discussion with artists including Kaws, Geoff McFetridge, Mister Cartoon, Haze, Brent Rollins and filmmaker Adam Weissman.and after-party with special guest DJs. Screenings were timed with the release of limited edition World Tour shoe in each market. The World Tour film was later released as a DVD/book combo.

Flux produced a ten-city advance screening tour to celebrate Michel Gondry's highly imaginative film The Science of Sleep. The screenings and receptions took place in San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Austin, Vancouver, New York, Boston, Toronto, Montreal and Chicago. Highlights included a live performance by Linda Serbu (writer of the film's main song Rescue Me) in San Francisco and a grand finale: a screening of the film on a rooftop in New York preceded by a live set from The Willowz performing their songs from the soundtrack and an after-party DJed by Tim "Love" Lee.
