The Austin Music Video Festival will run Sept. 16-19 at various venues, including the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz, the Vulcan Gas Company, and The North Door. The festival opens with a screening of Okkervil River’s short music film Down Down the Deep River and followed by an acoustic performance by Okkervil River singer Will Sheff. There are will be workshops, panels, and an awards show.
