In Eugene, #OregonMade films such as "Without Limits," "Tracktown," "How to Beat the High Co$t of Living," "Animal House" and "Wild" have filmed in this versatile city. These signs are a collaborative effort, paid for in part by a grant from Travel Oregon and a grant from the City of Ashland facilitated by Andrew Gay, Associate Professor & Program Coordinator Digital Cinema at Southern Oregon University, and placed in partnership with the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Ashland Independent Film Festival, and Film Southern Oregon. Adapted from Neil Gaiman's novella of the same name, the film tells the story of Coraline, a young girl living in a small and charming town, complete with a Shakespeare Festival that permeates the culture and wonder of the community, who finds a door leading to a parallel reality. When Witherspoon's character emerges from hiking following a particularly difficult section of the Pacific Crest Trail, the Downtown Plaza doubled as a community-gathering place to mourn the death of the Grateful Dead icon Jerry Garcia.Ī fictionalized version of Ashland provided the inspiration for the setting of the animated feature film Coraline, the first stop-motion film from Oregon-based Laika Studios. Historic downtown Ashland featured prominently in Wild, the highly acclaimed 2014 film adaptation of the best-selling book, starring Reese Witherspoon as Oregon author Cheryl Strayed.
