Dans ce cas, les courts ont g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement un style d\u2019images \u00e0 la Hollywood. De fait, bon nombre de r\u00e9alisateurs (la plupart) ont commenc\u00e9 ainsi et il y a naturellement eu de belles d\u00e9couvertes : par exemple, l&#8217;exemple de Whiplash (Damien Chazelle) est int\u00e9ressant, puisque ce court a \u00e9t\u00e9 transform\u00e9 et d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 en un long m\u00e9trage (je crois m\u00eame que le script entier existait d\u00e9j\u00e0 au moment du court), avec tr\u00e8s peu de modifications de la s\u00e9quence initiale. Au lien suivant, les deux versions sont compar\u00e9es : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AiSYjRJeLTk\">Whiplash Movie and Short Comparison (Short Audio Only)<\/a>. <br>Par ailleurs, l&#8217;excellent Werner Herzog avait lui-m\u00eame r\u00e9alis\u00e9 4 ou 5 courts, avant de s&#8217;attaquer \u00e0 &#8220;Aguirre, le fl\u00e9au de Dieu&#8221;.
