Identiteaze

As a trans woman i really enjoyed it and hope this gets picked up as a series. Everyone needs to support this and get it made into a series. Like it delves into identity and how we cant be told where we fit and I love Jessie gender for making this. I also Love John de lancie! He did the Q snap thing from star trek lol. My friend saw it too and loved it as well. I wish this project luck in getting more episodes made. This needs to become successful. Trans themed shows are something we need more of,m especially made by trans people. Trans rights are human rights and i hope to learn more about the story here and get to see so much more. I have so many questions!

From the brilliant mind of revolutionary artist Jessie Earl, Identiteaze is a stunning and captivating sci-fi short film. Set in a virtual reality limbo in a dystopic corporate controlled future, the film centers around two strangers with missing memories faced with an impossible decision and an unknown fate. An astounding cast, amazing writing and direction, and beautiful visuals highlight this exploration of identity, conformity, our place in the world, and what we owe to each other. Lovingly made by true fans of science fiction, the film features numerous nods to iconic works that aren't necessary for your enjoyment but that enhance the experience greatly if you are. The allegorical exploration of queer identities is heart wrenchingly potent, and relatable to anyone who's ever struggled to know who they are or what their place in the world should be. I cannot recommend this film enough. It is fully worth a membership to Nebula for this film alone!

No spoilers here.

As I mentioned in the title, I was hoping for and expecting more. I am familiar with the writer and a few of the actors, and I generally enjoy things that they produce. This is not the case here, as the writing feels very stilted and heavy on clichés, and the actors generally do a good job with the material that they are given to work with.

You would likely be better served watching something else, like Cube, and supporting LGBTQ+ stories elsewhere. The themes and ideas of the short are good ones but feel to be applied very poorly. Questions of identity in identiteaze is almost as comically simplistic as a bad episode of Star Trek.

There was maybe on interesting part but for the most part I think they were trying to be clever but everything just fell little short a nice first try for a writer I do hope they do well and continue I feel they could get stronger as they go.

Was nice to get Q (John de Lancie) in it, he is a very under rated actor and deserves a lot more credit, not quite on the voice lever as someone like Morgan Freeman but very recognizable when he is talking.

I would say it is not something I would go out of my way to watch again, but if you do come across it you would not be wasting your time to watch it.

Went into this worried to be honest, as I'm a fan of Jesse and wanted the best for her first big production. I was worried that I wouldn't like it, and I'm easily turned off from watching things due to my short attention span (thanks ADHD)...I'm typically hard to please. Although I'm a fan as mentioned before, I feel it is kindest to creators that you are honest with them and let them know upfront if you don't feel they would thrive in an endeavour, as ultimately it would lead to pain and disappointment for them down the line if you tell them white lies.

However I really enjoyed this short, of course there are parts of the dialogue that I would change as it was a tad too existential for me, but appreciated it for what it was trying to do.

I enjoyed how clean the film work was, the actors performed well and sets were pleasing to the eye.

Being as this is a start to what I hope is a long career for Jesse this is really promising and I look forward to seeing what she creates next, if she decides that this is ultimately what she wants to dedicate herself to.
