How is information about short films shared by users?
It has a most popular short films page where by you
can refine the search to what you want to see. You
could find different short films from other users
reviews and social media sites that share the short
films.
What can we gleam about the people who write about
short films at the site?
It depends on whether the short film is one that is well
known or not. On the shorts that are more well known
the review are from more of the general public who
may only watch for entertainment purposes. On the
other hand, you have users who are more interested in
analysing not so well known short films who use more
analytical language and have a greater knowledge and
interest in short films.
