How Short Film Impact & Inspire Our Society?

Well today we are going to talk about How Short Film Impact & Inspire Our Society? As you know the impact of films on our society is undeniable, and now with today’s Social Media and mobile accessibility we are constantly bombarded with content from the moment we wake up to until the moment we fall asleep. I can see that Short Film seems perfectly tailor-made for our quick and fast-paced digital era.

How Short Film Impact & Inspire Our Society?

Are you familiar with short film? A short film is any motion picture not long enough to be considered a feature film. Its’ running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits. 

How Short Film Impact & Inspire Our Society?

Time: fast and short

As you know that we are on the move, so we can watch shorts whenever we have five minutes to spare, while surfing the web at night, during break time at work, or even when we commute. To be honest, the shorter the film is the better it is just highlight the important or action pack slot.

Attention: sound and sight

As you know, everyday we are exposed to so many types of contents be it print, digital, photos, videos and etc. I find that the best way to engage is through video because sound and sight can capture our attention faster.

Climax: Impactful and Inspiring

The beauty of short film is that stripping out all the less important elements of a story and cramming in as much fundamental bits to keep a story functional. Therefore the stories are usually short, sweet and straight to the point. Just highlight the climax to make it more impactful and inspiring instead of long winded films.
