A film is remembered by its characters and theme. Characters should be different in a way which show some uniqueness in them and theme should be something which touches everyone’s heart.Most of people watch movie on the basis of the theme they come to know in trailer. Short films should also be humourous as everyone has lot of stress and tension in their life and all wants to reduce their stress from the hectic schedule. Humourous films make them tension free for the start of next hectic day. As, said fresh mind before start of work makes the day fresh. More humourous the film is more the viewers attract towards it and spread to others as laughing is the best cure to reduce stress that everyone believes. One important aspect is simplicity which should be there till end. Sometimes climax in the story attracts viewers hence, climax should be related to the story. It should not deviate from the main theme of the story for e.g. if the theme of story is corruption then climax should not be the personal life of individual.
