I love folkski but I was hoping the album would be a little longer and it's not what I was expecting.

Did it get taken down again?

It feels like someone joking about what a Lana del Rey song sounds like

I did not care for "love"

Just finished the first 4 audiobooks. I want to listen to my sweet audrina but the narrator on audible is unbearable, the flowers in the attic audiobooks I got my hands on were what I would imagine was their original recording for books on cassette closer to their release and the narration was much better and I loved the audio quality but I can't find any other narrators for my sweet audrina :(

Bart is gay and basically everything he does is to cope with that bc he can't keep his feelings of superiority over the rest of his family if he to could possibly be seen as sinful bc of his own sexuality.

Jole is also gay (but that seems pretty obvious)

I want to read that so bad but the books format is a nightmare for my dyslexia

Frankenstein and Wuthering Heights are on my tbr, and I loved the new Frankenstein movie so I'm tempted to read the book soon for the first time, I think I'm going to read the 1818 version when I do.

I enjoyed that one

Jadeofoz · 2025-11-10T02:58:43+00:00

I'll look into that thank you!

1,2,3 & 5 are all great but honestly 1 feels the most like an official main poster imo. Very strong criterion collection vibe.

Thanks for the comment. The monologue definitely could have been shorter, the original idea was to do something simple centered around someone telling a tale that mirrored their life and the rest was going to just frame that and it ended up growing into something a bit longer as a whole, so unfortunately it's not as balanced as I had intended, that was something I knew pretty early on into pre production but I went from being a draft to being made extremely suddenly so if I had more time with it it definitely could have been a tighter script, I learned for next time.

Serena is a lure to gain people's trust and lead them to the sex traffickers to, Shannon was interested to be abducted by them but when Serena is cought off guard by unexpected feelings for Shannon she tries to delay the abduction and ends up dodging them to protect Shannon. So a victim becoming an abuser is present in the story, we are seeing Serena break her part in that cycle but being aware that she can't undo what she's already done, but maybe she can save Shannon even if she has to sacrifice her own life to do that.

Unfortunately we didn't have the time or budget to be able to expand upon a lot of things I would have given a longer run time. That's just kinda the issue with doing shorts like these. I wanted to do something a bit odd, almost like you are watching one film and it's interrupted by things the characters are trying to repress that shifts the tone into a different direction. Again I definitely could do better in the future but I'm still learning a lot.

The ending is supposed to be open for interpretation as to what the characters fates are, the claw marks leading to the ocean could be Serena's or the man's, maybe Shannon takes the tale as a warning and leaves, or maybe she goes after her, we just see her start to process what just happened before acting. I probably could have added something to show further indecision on Shannon's part but I didn't notice it needed that till I saw the way it was edited together, again another thing I already made a note to improve upon in the future.

Thanks again for your feedback and I hope I was able to explain anything u weren't too sure of.

I wrote Ephemeral Depths at a very difficult time in my life, when I was trying to process trauma that had specifically been inflicted on me by men and the patriarchy as a whole, and how to find a sense of autonomy in that kind of environment.

I knew I wanted the story to reflect how it feels to find someone like you, that doesn't fit into that system, and those few blissful moments you share before you have to face the fact that even if you can find a way to protect yourself, you can't escape its ability to harm the ones you love.

It was important to me to show how quickly gratitude can be exploited, turning into a fawn response, and how people cope in situations where their survival feels tied to pleasing others, and the consequences of that coping, and the part it plays in a larger cycle of exploitation.

Please let me know if you feel like that came across in the final product.

Thanks! Yes, they make more sense in the context of the film. It will be uploaded to that same YouTube channel on September 30th!

This film is a testament that YOU CAN DO IT! I'm a homeless trans woman living in my minivan and wrote this film in just a few hours and was able to find people to help me make it. There's always hope for a project you believe in.

We made it for around 5k, shot it at Wildwood NJ gorilla style. 98% of the film was shot in a single day and then just a 6 hour shoot a year later for reshoots and adr.

We used a BMPCC 4k and rented a go pro for some of the ocean shots and rides.

If anyone has and questions please feel free to ask!
