🎥 Screening Room 201 (2nd Floor)
Thank you for volunteering as a Festival Evaluator for BBFF! Here’s what to do when you arrive:
- Head to the 2nd floor and look for Screening Room 201.
- Check in at the BBFF Table located just outside the screening room.
- Let the staff know that you're an evaluator — they’ll hand you an evaluation form.
- Watch the film block, then complete the form immediately afterward.
- Return the completed form to the BBFF Table.
- If you’re staying for another block, pick up a new form and repeat — you’re welcome to evaluate as many blocks as you like!
- If there is a panel following a screening, please stay and evaluate the panel as part of your feedback.
🍿 Free snacks and refreshments are available — our way of saying thank you!
Your feedback helps us grow. We appreciate your time, insight, and support. Enjoy the festival!
