So what ever happened to Fall Line Films’ founder Jerry Dugan, one of the guys responsible for some of the most iconographic snowboard films of the 90s (Western Front, Critical Condition, Riders on the Storm, Roadkill)? According to a story in the Reno News & Review he is still running FLF Films.
Today, FLF Films does a variety of projects from advertising for big-name clients to documentary films to art pieces and music videos. The permanent staff at FLF Films is fairly small, considering some of the projects they take on. Dugan almost always does his own camera work even on larger-scale projects—he directs and composes the shots and the look of everything. . . The size and scope of the projects vary. Over the past summer, the company shot a series of commercials for Disney’s Hannah Montana. The commercials were shot in Reno, and they daily had about 50 people on the set, including stylists, clients and extra camera operators.
Oddly, this story left out any mention of Dugan’s days in the Reno “private entertainment” industry, but we’re glad Jerry (pictured right with Erika Frick) is doing well.

Hey – thanks for the shout 🙂 We actually just started a little FLF blog to document our more recent adventures… a Western (with a big gunfight, horses – the whole deal), a piece for the Nevada Museum of Art, some toy commercials etc. Check it out (www.flffilms.com/blog) and drop us a line sometime.
Cheers!
