Watching short documentaries online has never been hotter. But, from a filmmaker point of view, does "short" necessarily mean easier to produce? How has the world of online shorts changed the game for filmmakers? Is this really any way to make a living? And how are those commissioning shorts and running the platforms evaluating their success?
