Just some of the responses I have been getting from my latest short film, THE JUMPER (which was censored and then banned from Facebook, DailyMotion, and a few others) that I wanted to share. They are all varied and diverse, and I have been very happy with the response. I was finally able to watch online. It hurt on a visceral level. Made me nauseous. Insightful and thought provoking short film... ...have you been getting any feedback about the content of the video and what it stands for; or is it brain dead people telling you how beautiful you look with blood all over your face like a 9/11 victim, and how cool the effects you did are? I support you and I think whatever you create is always inspiring, makes people think and teaches them, which is an amazing talent you have, however judging from the title, I cant watch your latest project because if it is what I think it is, its about the people that jumped from the trade center on 9/11? ...I am extremely sensitive to all things related to this event and even writing this is making me feel sick, however I felt a strong need to explain to you why I havent liked or shared your work. Hope you understand. Cant watch it. My blood still boils over 9/11. Great job. Very well done. And Im not one to like artsy stuff. At first, probably like most, there was no way I would watch this, but then I stopped and questioned myself and asked, what am I afraid of seeing? Am I more afraid to see the truth of something, or is it something else? I think people who turn away from this one are missing the point. If you pay attention, there is actually a very positive message towards the end and is incredibly inspiring. Anything that generates the kind of reaction that something like this does, is successful because it hits a nerve with people. They either love it or hate it. They can look or turn away. The one thing they cant deny is; in this you presented authentic truth, and there is nothing more frightening to some people. Very well done. youtu.be/zzu0Uao8zB8 Please keep the feedback coming. Good and bad, its all appreciated.
