Vote now for the 2024 Audience Choice Award

• Please note: Voting for this year's Audience Choice Award has now closed. The winners will be revealed at the Into Film Awards ceremony on Tuesday 25 June 2024. Original article continues below.

Now that this year's brilliant Into Film Awards nominees have been announced, we're sure you've got your own personal favourites from the incredible selection of films. Well, now you have the chance to personally support and champion these incredible young people's films, by voting in our Audience Choice Award.

The filmmaking categories at the Into Film Awards are judged by a panel of film industry experts, including members of the Into Film board. However, the Audience Choice Award (sponsored by Universal Pictures International) is all about you - our audience. Which talented young filmmakers from across the UK do you think deserve a trophy? Perhaps one of the films resonated with you in a personal way, or touched on issues that you feel are important to be recognised; or maybe the quality of some of the films simply blew you away. Whatever the reason, this is your chance to get involved and help support the UK's young filmmaking talent.

How does it work?

To cast your vote for the Audience Choice Award, you will need to head over to our social media channels. You will be able to vote for your chosen film (or films!) on our Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and Instagram channels. Please read the following rules carefully.

You will find one post for each nominated film on each of our Facebook, X, and Instagram channels, and the film with the most combined engagement (as outlined below) across all platforms will win. You can cast votes across all three channels to increase the chances of your favourite filmmakers winning - that gives you three chances to help someone win the Audience Choice Award!

And to make it even easier, we've included links to each of the posts across all three channels further down this page.
