What is a short film? A short film is any motion picture not long enough to be considered a feature film. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less   Difference between a feature film and a short film: One of the main differences between a short film and a featured film is that a short film, is shorter in duration time compared to a feature length film. A short film has less cast and crew members than a feature length film would have.  Short films are not as complex most of the time there is little character development . Short films have a much smaller budget than feature length films, which means that they are unable to do the amount of things that a feature film would be able to do and include. Short films are generally produced and distributed by less established media institutions. Short films usually are produced at lower quality....
