Following Los Angeles Film Festival artistic director David Ansen out the door was Film Independent and Laff programming veteran Doug Jones, who swiftly landed a new gig. He's moving to Williamstown, Ma as the new executive director of the Images Cinema, a venerable downtown single-screen theater. In September he replaces Sandra Thomas, who has resigned after 12 years. Jones is looking forward to taking over the renovated art house cinema, which plays first-run indies and foreign films as well as classic repertory cinema, bringing in talent for Q & As. He wants to try some new ideas and programming initiatives. Jones has two decades of experience at film festivals and arts nonprofits. He's currently associate programmer for the Philadelphia Film Festival, and prior to his dozen years at Laff and Film Independent, he was Film and Video Programmer at the San Francisco International Film Festival and San Francisco Film Society, and earned his exhibition.
