short film funding

A slang term for movies, like Whiplash (2014), that struggle to secure substantial funding and are often created as short films to be submitted to film festivals first, aiming to gain recognition and support for full-length productions.
After years of pitching, my script ended up as a short film funding project—guess I’m in the short film game like those filmmakers behind Whiplash!
