Short film started of the cinema industry in 1985 you would go to a cinema and pay to see short film the first being 'sortie de l'usine' created by the Lumière brothers this was the first commercial film to make money. Short film carried on untill in 1914 when the hollywood studio system came to be which made 90 minute films and put death to the short film. the studio system brought in genres and longer films so people could eat drink see a film in the genre they prefered and it will all have been done in a 2 hour slot ready for the next veiwing this dominated cinema leaving no breathing space for short film. from the 1930's onwards short film was regarded as an activity rather than a profession. currentley hollywood makes short films for cheap experimentation to scout new talent try new characters, storys, themes and so on.
