Short takes are information crammed into a small space/time frame For example, in film, the movie may be only three minutes long and still pack a powerful punch The subject can be anything In publications such as newsletters, ebooks and magazines, up to one page is a short take As you will see in these pages, a topic is presented in short take format This gives you enough information to kick start the thinking part of your brain It is up to you to take it from there, if you so desire That in a nutshell is a short take Enjoy ours
