== History ==
The Action on Film International Film Festival was founded in 2004 by Del Weston.  After being disappointed by a bad experience, Weston sought to create a festival where filmmakers could showcase their films. It was first held in Long Beach, California as a part of the Long Beach International Martial Arts Championships.
In 2008, it moved to Pasadena, California.
In 2012, it moved to Monrovia, California.
In 2017, it was moved to Las Vegas, Nevada.
The festival accepts all major genres and is not limited to action films.
