Dominic plays the American coach of a High School lacrosse team. Great to see him in a sporty role! And in shorts, maybe.  |

| DomCat (2/13/2006) why do they make short films when the odds are they won't get picked up? Is it to get work out there on the Festival Circuit as a showcase and hope by word of mouth that the film gets recognition?Partially. It's also to make connections. Even a short film with a writer or director who is building a good reputation in the industry is a desirable thing. wollem |

| In the long run, yes, shorts tend to be about recognition and adding to your cv. But there are other constraints, like budget, film stock, time etc. Heck, some stories are just best told between 5 and 30 minutes, it's about the story being told in the right amount of time.
Also, some people just prefer to make a short rather than a feature. But most use it as a platform for heading up the ladder, so to speak. Crew and actors alike.
It's not that it doesn't get released, they do get audiences, just not general population in main stream cinema. In the UK, channel 4 regularly show short films at night (they used to anyway, as a showcase) and I think the beeb do too. I'd hope american stations do similar, so they get a tv audience, but they still need a distributor to get even that, hence the festival circuit.

| not to be picky, but you really should edit your sig line and spell Dominic's name right.
anyone who knows me knows what I'm like with the spelling of name's, lol. took me long enough to train dominic, then he just got confused again and probably can't spell it anymore.
