Focusing on the key points of;
- Why am I making this film?
- What is a short film?
- What is the story?
- The character and the problem
- Making problems manifest to the audience
- What does my story mean?
- Am I telling the story from the best point of my view
- The Tone of the film.
I now understand when creating my film script for my short film that good short film needs a story in which something happens that has a discernible effect on the main character. All successful short films focus on one moment/event. That moment is likely to be:
one of universal significance a moment that is of significance to the protagonist (whether s/he knows it at the time) one that produces a situation in which the stakes are high for the protagonist.
Here is a sample of a short film clip titled "Death Of The Revolution in order to give me inspiration for my own short film.
