2. Length
The first thing you will notice that separates a short film from a
feature film is the length. Normally short films can be anything
lower than 40minutes. Normally anything more than that is
considered a feature film.
Example:
Disney Pixar's, Toy Story of Terror is
a short filmsthat’s 22 minutes long.
3. Characters
The amount of characters in a short film is different to
those in a short film. Normally a short film would only have
2-3 characters. This is because they don’t have to worry
about creating any background information or history
about the character.
Letters of Service by
Duncan Wellaway only
has two characters which
we don’t know much
about.
4. Twists
Short Films normally always have a twist. This is
because they don’t have to be explained, the same
as poems. This makes the storylines more interesting as
it gives the writers more freedom. The twists are
normally done to everyday situations
The black hole is good
example of a twist because
it takes a normal situation
and twists the story
5. budget
The budget short films is normally a lot lower than feature
films. This is normally because the short films are for
producers to show off there skills only. The normally deal
with a low budget by only having a few locations and 1
or 2 actors.
Burden is a short film
which had a low
budget
