En İyi Kısa Film Akademi Ödülü

En İyi Kısa Film Akademi Ödülü ismi ilk kez 1974'te kullanılmıştır. Daha önceki üç yılda bu ödül "Kısa Konulu Film" olarak anılmaktaydı. 1957-1970 arasında "Kısa Konu Filmi" kullanılmıştır. 1936'dan 1956'ya dek "En İyi Kısa Konu Filmi - Tek Makara" ve "En İyi Kısa Konu Filmi - Çift Makara"
olmak üzere iki ayrı ödül bulunmaktaydı. Üçüncü bir kategori olan "En İyi Kısa Konu Filmi - Renkli" ise sadece 1939 ve 1937'de kullanıldı. Kısa film ödüllerinin dağtılmaya başlandığı 1932'den 1935'e dek ise ödüller "En İyi Kısa Konu Filmi - Komedi" ve "En İyi Kısa Konu Filmi - Orijinallik" şeklindeydi.
