  • This a short film adapted from three different diary entries of a person's life. It explores the idea of feeling lost and trapped in life - it's chaotic and paralyzing. It's about living through life and feeling it all, the grief, isolation and fear that we all experience, as well as the joy that can be found.

    I'm back! Finally! I gotta be honest, being away for so long has made me put extra pressure on myself for this film. I'm proud of how it turned out in the end though. Let me know what you think :)
    Also, some very very exciting news. I've been working on a new project for the past year and half. I want this to become a long-term sustainable project, independent from any paywall or adverting (I feel like ads just distract us from the stories). So I came up with the idea of turning this stories that I share into unique pieces that you can wear. Just starting with, tees at the moment. They're all made in Portugal (so I can visit every supplier and check their working conditions), and made of 100% organic cotton. On top of that, one euro of each pieces donates toward a specific effecive charity.

    Thank you all for watching and for your incredible support!

    You said in your 'making of a documentary' video that you don't give importance to gear. But your production values are above par. Who cares what you used. Good work.

      @@epochstories Quality over content any day! This is an amazing and emotionally charged piece of work. You're making captivating films that go so much deeper than the surface, unlike most UA-camrs and Instagrammers these days. The power and impact of this artform has too many elements to be rushed. You have a sincere respect for the craft and in my opinion have truly reached a level of substance as filmmaker/storyteller and I can only hope that you continue to create quality and inspire not only civilian viewers, but also filmmakers like myself. Kind regards and wishing you all the best for 2022, Jay

    Beautiful photography, stunning visuals supporting a universal theme. The part about the Grand-dad was confusing because it wasn't made clear why that relationship was so important. Most people are most impacted by parents. If a grand parent carried more importance, that normally needs to be established within the story.

    • @epochstories
      @epochstories  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you very much Tim. And thank you for the detailed feedback.
      Yeah, I totally get what you mean. For a bit of context, this was written a few months back after her grandad has passed away. It's implied, but not too obvious. This film is adapted from a specific diary entry of a specific moment of her life, which was written while feeling very lost and confused. In moments like this, there's a constant fog in hour head. So I've tried to keep it quite ambiguous. The idea of the film wasn't really to talk about that specific relationship, but rather to focus on all the feelings and challenges of life that she went through after it. I hope it makes sense :)
