What is a short film?

A short film is a video lasting between 2 and 15 minutes. It usually has a complete narrative, a beginning, a middle and a conclusive end, which is usually reasonably simple so as to be understood in such a short space of time. It tends to revolve around plot twists and plot twists, by this the audience can see that it is a form of film derived from the feature length film and often acts as a platform for aspirant Hollywood actors and directors. The storylines of short films are often fable-like, they have a moral ending and the audience walks away feeling as though they have learned something about life.
