SYNOPSIS: 19
Year old Actress Jessica Rose plays Bree, a 16-17 year old girl with select
few friends, a menagerie of stuffed animals, and some interesting life
issues in this video blog series that began as an Internet hoax. The plot
is loose due to the video blog expositional structure, and what began
as a teen drama/ comedy is now a bizarre story of a cult and the twists
that come with it.

TAMPA BAY FILM OPINION:
This
began as an Internet hoax that was supposed to be fodder for a television
/ film pitch, and then marked the beginning of a new entertainment medium,
once the truth was exposed and the creators realized that the series was
pulling in large numbers of regular viewers. This series would not be
as popular as it is if not for the hoax factor. Although the format is
not new (Tampa Bay entertainment and professional polymath C. A. Passinault
had a documented outline for such a format for use on public access television
back in 1993), the application to the Internet and its advantages is,
and may indicate the beginning of a potential revolution in indie filmmaking
concepts and the definition of what a film is, and could be. Actress Jessica
Rose is absolutely brilliant as the teenage Bree, and we haven't
seen a character this likeable ever (although Jessica does remind us an
awful lot of web actress / model Kristen Serena and professional actress
/ model Roxanne Kowalska if they were combined, and she looks and acts
almost exactly like Kristen did back in 1998-2000). The story can be a
bit confusing, and some of the episodes can be so-so; especially the video
mail ones where the characters video blog each other on the same account.
The first few episodes are a bit rough, but it begins to hit its stride
after the first ten- the editing is far from what is supposed to be correct,
but it works- and in the 18th episode (Episode 0023), the jump cuts toward
the end are simply brilliant. The story gets weird as it advances, with
more characters and some bizarre cult, but it is definitely entertaining;
Jessica Rose is adorable as Bree, the entire series is very watchable
with its tiny episodes, and it is good to the point that it could compete
agains,t and stand, with traditional films and television. This is proof
that the definition of what a film, and what entertainment can be, is
generally open to interpretation. A final note about the missing episodes
is that the producers chose to omit them, and that the loose plot structure
is flexible enough to work without them. We are guessing that there were
quality issues with them, especially as many of them are from the start
of the series where the characters and the story was struggling to find
itself. This series is simply inspiring, and we are anxious to see what
else will evolve from it with other production efforts. While you would
not find anything like this in a current conventional film festival event,
our online film festival was perfect to showcase it, and we would much
rather watch this than many Tampa produced indie"films", as
this has high entertainment value. When it works, it is brilliant, and
it is a glimpse of the future of indie filmmaking and showing films; some
filmmakers and critics in the Tampa Bay area appear to be confused as
to the merits of this series and why we are showing it on our online film
festival, but this may indicate that there may be limits to the potential
and what the future may hold for the perceived players in the market today.

Tampa Film Festivals will also cover other Tampa film festivals, referencing Tampa film festival reviews on Tampa Film Review), Tampa Film Community, and Tampa Film Conference. In the near future, all of the eight main Tampa Bay Film sites will share the same general layout and design, and will be highly interconnected so that visitors can easily move between the sites, as if it were a single, huge site!
