FREAK

When Omar Davis is badly bullied day after day, he makes a
decision that impacts those around him, and leaves behind a lesson
for us all.


A NOTE FROM JASON:

"Freak" was filmed in July 2010. I hope now that
it is released, it can serve as a voice for the voiceless - anyone
who has ever been deeply impacted by the evil that is prejudice.

Who would have ever believed that kids laughing at school
would be replaced with harming themselves or others?
Yet instead of teaching children and teenagers
how to be more tolerant of one another, our society
allows them to grow up without ever learning about
acceptance, understanding,and tolerance.

Like the old Indian proverb says, "Do not judge a
man until you've walked 2 moons in his moccasins"
No one should ever have to suffer because they are
different. I created this short film for everyone, in an
effort to help put an end to bullying and prejudice.

@WritingSchiozo101 Thanks for the feedback - glad you enjoyed the film & glad the two characters were believably separate for you!

@MsHarlyQuin Similar to Harley. :) I want to go into the same field, only I want to work with criminals. lol! How much longer do you have until grad school is over? And then what are you supposed to do? (I'm interested because I'll have to do pretty much the same thing, but I'm still not sure what exactly it is I need to do. I'm a junior in high school right now.) Thanks for replying!!!

@WritingSchiozo101 Clinical Psychologist!

@MsHarlyQuin Oh, I understand! :D I'm glad you replied though and I look forward to seeing more videos from you soon! What are you going to school to become? :)

@WritingSchiozo101 Hehe, I'm trying to finish grad. school, so I've been totally lame on posting lately. But thanks for the nice words!

[WritingSchiozo101]

@InfluenceFilms Oh, no problem! Cool. Can't wait. :D

@WritingSchiozo101 I dropped her a line awhile back about us doing another short film with her. Time will tell. She might even pop in this thread and say hi. Who knows? Either way, thank you for your interest! =)

[WritingSchiozo101]

@InfluenceFilms Oh, thank you! I knew it! *is happy*

Do you know if she'll be working with you again in the future? Or if she'll be posting new videos again soon? (I get nervous when YouTubers go a few months without posting anything. lol!)

@WritingSchiozo101 Yep. She is the same actress/singer/Harley. Her name is Amanda Geisel. One of the best and nicest people to work with.
