I need some guidence here. Cuz, well, to be honest, I don't know that much about that much.
We set out to make a 12 minute short. A year later, we have a second rough cut that is about 18 minutes long. It is mostly connective tissue, muscle and bone, very little fat, so there is not a lot to obviously cut.
So, my question is, is there an average length? Is there a standard length? Is there a cutoff length to, say, enter films into short festivals? Is there a website that I can go to that will instruct me on this?
Any and all help will be appreciated.
