Longer films typically have higher budgets and are therefore better able to afford to use Sony HD.: Would not help explain
Films that are shot in more than two languages are more likely than those that are not to use a mix of color and black & white film in order to highlight cultural differences.: Would help explain
The shorter the documentary, the more likely the producers are to save money by filming in just one language.: Would help explain

Longer films typically have higher budgets and are therefore better able to afford to use Sony HD.....Would not help Explain. Sony HD is used for 6 films, of which 3 are of short/medium length (56min, 75min & 80min)
Films that are shot in more than two languages are more likely than those that are not to use a mix of color and black & white film in order to highlight cultural differences......Would Help Explain. Color and black & white film are used only for 3 films and all of them are shot in 2, 3, 4 languages respectively.
The shorter the documentary, the more likely the producers are to save money by filming in just one language......Would Help Explain. Lets say that a documentary less than 90 mins is shorter. With this we can see that there are only 4 such films and of those 3 are shot in one language. We can conclude that there might be some financials involved in that
