Who cares about the proper nomenclature of what you've shot. Film has, due to the nature of American English, become a verb and when you record video, it's commonly referred to as "filmed" for that reason. As such, something that's been "filmed" could technically be called a "film." I'd just go with "flick," though.
But, really, that's like wondering if underwear is still underwear if you wear it for a hat.
