Travis Stowers
Selection Committee
I’m a world-traveler born and raised in Beloit. When I’m at my best I love features and shorts that effectively use the camera as a creative tool. At my worst I enjoy comedies filled with filthy jokes and non sequiturs. My favorite documentaries are more thought-provoking than informative and usually center around international or humanistic themes.

Greg Gerard
Selection Committee
I’m the Operations Director for BIFF, a singer/songwriter and an avid Packers fan. When screening a film I ask these questions: Is this a worthy story? Is it being told effectively? Are the actors believable? Does the technical quality support the action? Will this film appeal to the BIFF audience? As a creative artist I appreciate that each submission is someone’s labor of love and deserves respect and fairness in analysis.
