The Official Selections are reviewed by the Judging Panel and receive scores from the attending audience throughout the festival. After the festival closes, the weighted scores are combined, and the top-scoring films are promoted into the internal 'Network Round'.

The Network Round is hosted on the Lift-Off Network Hub, where the Lift-Off Jury and Network Hub Members score the films and vote for the winners.

After the festival closes, prizes are awarded, and winning projects are placed on the Season Award Nominations Shortlist. Lift-Off Season Award Nominations are allocated by the Jury based on merit within each category.

    Great festival! We walked away with โ€˜Audience Choiceโ€™ award!

  • Lindsay Christopherson

    This is a good festival for newcomers, as they accept everyone & you get the laurels, but then you are expected to ask your friends, family & aquaintances to fork out US $20 to view the films and vote for them, over a month long online festival. These terms are not fully declared at the outset, and it's only the films with the most votes that have a chance to be screened at an actual in cinema festival, and even then, it's not guaranteed. Obviously this has every benefit for the festival but little for the filmmakers. I recommend just taking the laurels and forgetting about the rest.

  • Thank you so much, as, we are obliged to be part of official selection to your film festival. Thanks and best regards. Sobti

    Being part of the Amsterdam Lift-Off Film Festival was great. I Saw some great films and met some equally great people in the community. Winning the Best Short Doc award with my film Motor Oil Blood was a nice way to top it off.

    I recommend this festival!
