Short movie
any film not long enough to be considered a feature film / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A short movie, short film, or short is any movie not long enough to be considered a feature film (movie). 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, including all credits".[1] However, the term is used by many as a catchall for anything less than 90 minutes in length.[2] A feature film or movie usually runs from 90 to 120 minutes but can be as long as 180 minutes.[3] There are other standards for short films. The Oberhausen short film festival defines a short as 35 minutes.[4] The BBC Short Film Festival, the Academy Awards, and Clermont-Ferrand use 40 minutes. The San Francisco, Uppsala, and Kraków are among those using a limit of 60 minutes.[4]
