Seeing as the beginning of the short film is said to be in the 1920's, there have been a significant amount more made since that date. As with feature length films, many critics have different opinions on what is said to be considered the best short film.
IMDb (International Movie Database) is a site which is renowned for its movie critiquing, have a list created by the user 'AssestsonFire' which explores the Top 250 Short Films.
This list focuses on well known and some short films which have a higher budget than small online project films.
However, the website Short of the Week focus on unknown, lower budget films - personally I feel as though they are much more engaging to watch, and help to challenge the conventions of a short film by producing films which are pushing the genre's border.
On the site, they have a section in which they list their Top Rated Short Films of all Time. These films are noticeably shorter in length than those on the IMDb list - which reflects the type of short film that I will be making.
