All Infos about
the Schindel

A music video is a collaborative masterpiece, bringing together the talents of various creatives – each contributing a vital piece to the bigger picture. While our award primarily honors the musical artists, we recognize the importance of every element in the process. That’s why we encourage a fair internal distribution of the winnings, though the final decision rests with the artists.
Entrants are free to choose which category best suits their submission – justifications will only be requested if necessary.
The videos should have been released approximately since June 2025. The Legacy Schindel is open to all releases.
Music videos will not be considered for ranking if:
• they solely capture a live performance or rehearsal without significant post-production.
• they exceed a length of 8 minutes.
If the submission fee presents a barrier for you for any reason, reach out to us at submission@goldeneschindel.at
