Film Vs Video (1 Viewer)

[ben131]

im doing a film for my Ext 2 project and was wondering about the time limitations. i have read the syllabus and for film it allows 4-5 minutes and for a video it is 6-8 minutes long. what the difference between them?
thanks for the help.

video: you'd be using a video camera and editing on a computer with software

film: you'd be using actual film, editing it in a blackroom and cutting the film with scissors.

although note, it's very very rare that even one person in the state will do a film. everyone does video, but just call it film for clarity
