It seems that you should ask your teacher how to get started. S/he should be able to point you in the right direction. It’s nearly impossible for anyone to help you very well with this because we don’t know much about your specific situation.

But, generally speaking, you need (at least):
1. a video camera
2. video tapes
3. video editing software on a computer (e.g. iMovie or Final Cut)

And you probably (but not necessarily) need:
1. one or more other people to be actors in the video

The thing is, if you really don’t know anything about making a short film, you are going to need help at every stage of this process. It’s easy if you know what you’re doing, but not if you don’t. So I really highly recommend talking to your teacher, regardless of whatever help we random internet people can give you.

May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you.
