Telling a complete story in a few minutes is a very challenging concept. Done well and a gem is on your hands, done badly and it becomes a disaster.
"Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you're a director. Everything after that you're just negotiating your budget and your fee."
~ James Cameron (filmmaker)
Short films such as 'Spider' and 'Love Does Grow On Trees' tell a complete story in very little time.

These films captivate their audience no matter what their content. I can learn a lot from said films.
