During the initial brainstorm of my coursework, the question was raised as to how exactly you end a short film. This raised an interesting question that often lingers around short films as the ending is one of the main parts of any media and while a successful, well made one creates a good impact and a long lasting positive image, a poor ending can tarnish an entire product and leave the audience with a bad taste.
Therefore I have to think carefully about how to end my short film. I could go for a quiet ending with the use of suspense. A cliffhanger, either quiet or loud which will leave the audience wanting more. Or I could end with an action sequence to tie up my plot with a high level of energy.
However, with the time constraints of this project being round about 4 minutes introduce an even bigger problem with that my ending can only be around a minute long, this is problematic as fitting any meaningful content of importance into a single minute is incredibly difficult and will have to be overcome carefully.
