'a short film full of energy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'a short film' is the wordplay.
'short film' becomes 'vid' (short for video).
'a'+'vid'='AVID'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for avid that I've seen before include "Keen, enthusiastic" , "Excessively keen" , "Fanatical" , "Very keen, desirous" , "Keen or greedy" .)
