" To make a film is easy,
To make a good film is a war,
To make a very good film is a Miracle"
- Alejandro Gonzalez inarritu.
Cinema is the one which successfully depict fact of society and nature of life. cinema shows an individual's all kind perspect of life. It shows all deep truth and a person experience of isolation. Ever individual wants to tie up with an organised society.
Short film is a technical description which created in the early stage of cinema originated by North american film industry and Indian film industry. Now this description transformed into so many dimensions.
North american industry suggested that a short film must be 20 to 40 minutes only. And Also this description is only for Europe, Latin America and Australian short films. Like the same way New York suggested that a short film must be minimum 1 minute and maximum 15 minute. Usually North american focus only on the characters of the short film but European & Australian focus only on visuals, cinematography & plot of the short film. In these reason North american's short films have the standard to do a feature film, Because young directors need good acting skills only. so short films is a stepping stone for cinematographers and commercial directors.
Short film is a film which converts a full length movie in a short duration. Short film is a reflection of a director's social, political and economical status of a society.
Short film can be easily taken by anyone, its accepted universally. Short film shows a director's talent of how he taken a film in low budget and explains his view to the world clearly. The biggest challenge of taking a short film is how he explains his creation to the world in short duration. Giving transactions and plot twist in short film is also challenging one. its really intriguing that how a director imbibed an issue and take it as a strong contented short films and explains it to the society. This is the main reason behind me to take short films.
In today's world there are so many youngsters and amateurs taking short films for their grow in film industry. Daniel Wiernicki says about these kind of attitude as " short film is a stepping stone of young directors to enter film industry. Also short film can be taken easily and cheaper. The duration of short film is short than the feature film so producers can easily identify the talents of young directors. We can achieve so many successful things through short films, mainly it creates an identity to enter film industry".
Film is not an art in life, film is a link between life and art. Not like painting and literature film gives life experience. I want to give these kind of emotions to the audience through my films. " Painting and literature comes under a circle called art but film is not like that" - Jean-Luc bodard.

Knowledge Gap:
When analyse today's literature there is a knowledge gap between short films and films.
How to study a short film (or)How to see a short film:

* What kind of experience when you saw a film?
* How a short film made?

But today so many people are taking short films to get attention in cine industry. These analyse will give you a complete vision of a short film and full length film.
