Thank you for your interest in judging films for the Winter Film Festival! We are so proud to screen such amazing films, and that is 100% due to the thoughtful consideration of our army of submissions judges.
Submissions judging runs from July 1 2025 – November 30 2025. We assign roughly 2 1/2 hours of films per week. All viewing and scoring can be done online. Judges are asked to view each film in its entirety, then score it on 8 technical points (sound, script, acting, etc) and provide an overall score and any additional comments.
Our local judges are very much welcome to attend the Festival as our guests – each judge receives a pair of All Access passes to the Festival.
Films are generally assigned on Wednesdays – you’ll receive an email with instructions to access your films and submit your scores. If there’s a week you cannot finish your assignments, no worries, just get to them the following week. If there’s a week you finish early, we are happy to toss some more your way.
Please fill in the following information so we can get you started!
THANK YOU! Please keep any eye out in your mail for something from Finn@nullWinterFilmAwards.com
