What is a short film?

A short film or a "short" is anything thats not long enough to be a feature film, they can be as short as 5 minutes long, or up to 40 minutes long, although are usually under 10 minutes long. The definition of a short film has changed over the years as when films first came out, they were all short; the best way I can think of to define a short film (mine in particular) is to compare them to a longer film where the story line is deliberately extended to make the film longer, whereas in a short film its concise, and straight to the point theres no climax building up to the main event, and no anticlimax.


Start > Main Event > Finish
