I have four. All student, all unpaid, two of which never got finished. Does that look worse than a short credits section?

   Put the finished ones on. Leave the unfinished ones off, because someone will eventually ask to see it and "it was never cut" is an awkward answer.

   Yes, put them on. Everybody starts here and nobody is fooled by an empty resume anyway.

   List them under Film with the school name as the production company. That is standard and honest.
