Become a jury member and decide who gets the STANDARD-audience jury Audience Jury Award at the Viennale from October 16 to October 28!

STANDARD is looking for three enthusiastic film fans to evaluate twelve films selected by the Viennale. The award-winning film will be supported in the STANDARD with an advertising volume of 25,000 euros if a film distributor includes it in its program.

Please note the modalities:

In addition to your main task –  viewing and discussing the films together –  the STANDARD Audience Jury is also a guest at all Viennale festivities during the festival and has the opportunity to get to know international filmmakers and the Viennale team.

The 20 festival entries competing for the STANDARD Viennale Audience Award are spread over thirteen festival days. Each jury member is required to view all 20 films. Therefore, you should be available or very flexible in terms of time for the duration of the festival from October 16 to 28.

Jury meetings will also be held between film screenings, and you can of course see other Viennale films with your accreditation in addition to the jury films.

The STANDARD film editorial team looks forward to receiving your application with a compelling cover letter and brief resume by Friday, September 19, at the latest, and will select three jury members from all applicants by Friday, October 3.

Apply by Friday, September 19, 2025, by email to: Publikumsjury@derStandard.at
