Short film format

 A short film is any motion picture not long enough to be considered a feature film.

The budget of a short film is a lot smaller than feature length films as they are usually created by independent company and are made for film festivals. They are occasionally broadcasted as filler when a feature film doesn't fit the standard broadcast schedule.

Short films are aimed towards niche audiences.

Short films are generally used by filmmakers to gain experience or prove their talent in order to gain funding for future films from private investors, entertainment companies, or film studios.

Audiences expect to be hooked into the story and characters within the first minute of the films. They also expect to see a beginning, middle and end to the story in a short amount of time to be satisfied with the film.
