Hi Guys,

Just wondering what the main structural differences are between a feature and a short. Besides the running time, are there any differences in form and structure?

Also, are there any good websites I can check out with short film scripts? I mean it's practically impossible to find a short script that has been produced on the net. Oh, and one last thing...are there any good books on writing shorts?

Thanks,
Jazz

eh...I'm not sure. I *think* that a short basically has a very abbreviated 2nd act (or is it 3rd?).

I really don't know, but a great board to ask this question on (nothing against AW, but it's not geared specifically to screenwriting) is www.scriptsales.com/boards (http://www.scriptsales.com/boards)
