Example One: I heard it too
Credits - The credits are displayed before the short film starts and take up roughly 5 seconds of the overall running time. This is a very noticeable difference due to full length film credits being shown at the very end of the film and could also last up to approximately 10 minutes.
Example Two: Moonlight Man
Credits - The credits also last a very short time in comparison to a full length film.
Example Three: Under the stairs
Title & credits - Both are displayed at the end of the short film.
Summary:
Overall I have found that the titles and credits can be placed either at the end or the start of any short film and the examples above have proved this theory. The titles are simple and are not presented on the screen for long. The credits take up less time of around 10 seconds to show everyone who is involved in the film. This is a huge difference from full length films but is purely due to short films not needing many actors or extras and also being a lot more simple to film so needs less help in that department. From this research, I plan to place my title at the beginning of the film to catch the audiences attention, and then place the credits at the end, lasting up to around 10 seconds only.
