Short film reccomendations

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for short films they think are awesome and a great example of the format?

I totally understand the urge to drop your own short film here, but I think that would defeat the purpose of the exercise.

I love this question, Noah! I particularly like this one for its use of clever edits, fun concept, in a low-budget setting!

The Whiplash short film is really well structured. Also, we are breaking down Wes Anderson’s Oscar winning short film today in the writers’ room: https://www.stage32.com/writers-room

Craggio - By Zach Cregger is brilliant. This was before Barbarian but after Miss March.

JP Rothie made a great short adapted from George Orwell's short story Shooting An Elephant that I love. https://shootinganelephant.vhx.tv/videos/shooting-an-elephant-1080p-hd-0...

I agree with Amanda, the original Whiplash short is brilliant!
