Short films have no real set codes and conventions, they can be any genre and are mainly for a niche audience as young aspiring directors create them to make a name for themselves and develop their style. Short films are under 50 minutes, 'Micro shorts' are under 5 minutes.
All short films have small casts as they are on a lower budget than Hollywood blockbusters, this means they have a more realistic, gritty look about them. You can watch short films at film festivals, art gallery's, Internet, TV eg) Channel 4 and the cinema.
Catherine Des Forges-
"Spare economics narratives, interesting storytelling, well structures work which draws in the audience quickly."
Gareth Evans-
"Short films are long films that finish earlier."
"a good idea, sufficiantly told, less is more."
