Mike Plante (producer) has been a film festival programmer since 1993, working at Sundance since 2002 and at CineVegas from 2002-2009. He started Cinemad magazine in 1998, to cover unusual films and character actors (iblamesociety.com). He directed the feature documentary Be Like An Ant (2010) and produced Thanks. Get In… (2009), directed by James Fotopoulos and written by Raymond Pettibon.

Theron Patterson (cinematographer) is originally from the US, but has been living and working in Istanbul, Turkey for 8 years. He makes films as well as works as a sound designer and teaches. He recently directed the narrative feature Bahti Kara (Black Cloud) (2010).

Albert Ortega (composer) is a sound wizard who is connected to the most amazing angles of expansive music output in Los Angeles.
