For Academy Awards consideration, a short film that is not more than 40 minutes in running time (including all credits) and which falls into the animated (cel animation, computer animation, stop-motion, clay animation, puppets, pixilation, cutouts, pins, camera multiple pass imagery, kaleidoscopic effects and drawing on the film frame itself for example) or live-action film categories, can qualify in one of two ways:

1) The film must have been publicly exhibited for paid admission in a commercial motion picture theater in Los Angeles County for a run of at least three consecutive days (no fewer than two screenings a day) or

2) The film must have participated in a "recognized" competitive film festival and must have won the best-in-category award.

Furthermore, short films in either category must be composite prints in 16mm, 35mm or 70mm, in English or English subtitles. Television or internet exhibition anywhere does not disqualify a film, provided such exhibition occurs after its Los Angeles theatrical release, or after receiving its festival award. Documentaries, previews, trailers or advertising films are excluded.
