The feature film is more limited with fewer production companies and fewer films being produced.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

The statement is true because feature films generally require larger budgets and resources compared to other types of films. This limits the number of production companies that can afford to produce feature films. Additionally, feature films have longer runtimes and require more time and effort to produce, resulting in fewer films being made compared to other types of films like short films or documentaries.

The first act ideally should be about _______ pages.
- 10
- 17
- 13
Correct Answer

A. 17

Explanation

The first act ideally should be about 17 pages. This suggests that in a play or screenplay, the first act should be approximately 17 pages long. The length of the first act is important for setting up the story, introducing the characters, and establishing the tone and conflict. A longer first act allows for more development and exposition, while a shorter first act may jump right into the action. Overall, a 17-page first act strikes a balance between providing enough information and keeping the audience engaged.
