STARBURST - an LGBTQ+ short film 

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LOVE ON THIS VIDEO AND MY CHANNEL!! Im getting a gaming pc for black friday and wanna start streaming ! Please follow if youre into gaming shit

I just feel for her friend that obviously liked her and she didn’t notice

Can we just talk about how she automatically forgot about her lesbian best friend that showed her the book and who was about to tell her she liked her before June interrupted with a text?? Even after she promised not to forget about her??

Imagine recommending a gay book to your crush that results in them realizing they are gay and falling for someone else X.X

“oh no i won’t replace you!” *top 10 things said before disaster*

"Just dont replace me okay?" *starts jokingly laughing* Everyone: 👁👄👁

they both have cuffs on their jeans and tucked in shorts lol-

Me: breathes RU-vid: YoU wAnT sOmeThInG gAy?

What about the best friend?? You could totally see there was something going on there... Feeling so sad :(

The whole time I watched this I was just imagining her best friend singing heather 😂

The “starburst” girl is literally the real life equivalent of Heather.

wait she didn’t get with the best friend IM SO UPSET I SWEAR THERE WAS SO MUCH CHEMISTRY THERE

“Just don’t go around replacing me!” Laughter More laughter More laughter Replaces her!

me: trying to watch an lgbtq video ad: *Sign trump's Birthday Card!* me: READ THE ROOM

Yeah, but she lied, she did replace her. By the end, she didn't even think of her. We can't control who we like, but it still kinda broke my heart. I can relate to the bestfriend.

i love how her name's june. june is pride month hehe🌈✨

Max and Eleven look great here.

its clear her best friend liked her and she just ditched her for another girl???

“Oh no I will never replace you” last seen she is in for whole video🤣

Aw that's so sad! Friend: Just don't go around replacing me okay? Her: Oh, I would never! *proceeds to ignore her friend's feelings for her and replaces her*

Let’s just take a moment to pay respects to Stevie💀

She should’ve dated the friend!!

Bruh I'm pan but jUST GIRLS ARE LOOKIN REALLY GOOD RN

i want a film like this but the whole soundtrack is girl in red and one of them has a cottagecore aesthetic and the other has a dark academia aesthetic- so they bond in like a coffee shop or smth while reading poetry dbajdisndbakak

So umm where’s the happy ending for her friend that obviously likes her?......

June: Bisexual, Pansexual...Gay.. big labels like that- Me: *happy cries in having Pan be called a big label-*

Omg I thought I was bi and here I am watching all dis lesbian stuff, life is confusing this story was beautiful

My first film be easy on me 🥺 love you Edit: ALL MUSIC I USED People Planet - Preemptive Heartache The Slaps - Cheers The Slaps - will have been being around Teen Blush - Ghost

OH, lovely!!! I really, really like this film!!! I'm an old Lesbian--74--when I was growing up in Texas in the 50's I had no idea there was such a thing as Lesbians but always was more attracted to my girlfriends than any boy. Sigh. Wonder what my life would have been like if I'd known......Well feel lucky in some ways--had three great kids, then found out and figured it out and was lucky to have had a wonderful woman lover for many years before she passed away. So---happy for these young women and their lives to come and all the young ones on their path.

Historians in 100 years like: They were really good friends.

Who else during quarantine just watching lgbtq films

My sis was watching over my shoulder Her: HA ! GAAAIIII Me: *throws spoon at her

*I really REALLY want June’s clothes*

i got real exited when i saw she had a "the neighborhood" shirt on

june is like the embodiment of the song “space girl” by frances forever

I feel for stevie she got replaced and mable didn't even notice stevie had a crush on her :(

WHAT ABOUT THE BEST FRIEND THOUGH I-

Why does June remind me of Luna Lovegood.

Her and the friend would be such a cute couple thoooo

is no one going to talk about the fact that june was wearing literal barbie legs as earrings??

I feel so bad for the best friend that liked her...

Oh,wow I like how the story been told,it's cute at first I thought Stevie showed Mabel the book because she's secretly in love with her. Or that June coming might replace Stevie being Mabel's best buddy. The story was told as lightly as someone should take,accepting to terms of how you feel without fear,no label and just tell someone honestly and enjoy time which you could be together.

Um hello, can this be a Netflix series

ahh so cute! The dialogue was a bit forced at times but it was still really awesome!

The friend: just make sure to never replace me The main character: I won't Literly a second later wHo wAS tHAt gIrL

Them in the library, both wearing docs and converse shoes with cuffed jeans. Me: *laughs in gay*

poor stevie. felt this on an emotional level

Duuuude, when she started talking abut how she stopped reading cause she couldn't find herself in books, and then she read gay and she could read books and find herself in the characters again?!! That exact same thing happened to me just a little while before I realized I was gay, I live in Texas and don't have access to many books about people like me, so i still don't read much, but watching this made my heart happy and made me feel understood.

The sad thing is theirs no kissing scene 😂

My friend liked me for a while.. and even admitted to it. I started liking her as well, but I didn’t say anything. Now she likes somebody else, and I’ve missed my chance...

Me being Pansexual and my favorite music artist being Girl In Red: RU-vid: HERE YOU GO! GAY

I think this is really good, but it felt like you forgot about Stevie half-way through. There was no scene where Stevie confronts Mabel about them drifting apart and about how Mabel promised that she wouldn’t get replaced. Aside from that though, I think this is amazing for your first short film!

amazing. i seriously love this so much. i can personally relate to mabel and one day i hope to meet a june. i especially love how in the beginning stevie’s head was on mables shoulder but got shrugged off, then later in the film june’s head was on mables shoulder yet mabel didn’t try to move it. i have so much i could say on this short film but i have no idea how to put it to words. all i can type right now is that this is seriously amazing and i love it so so so much. i feel like everyone who worked on this film will be famous one day. it was amazingly written, filmed, and edited. wouldn’t change a thing :) keep up the good work

Me: I suffer from depression Legit everyone: Same! Me: I suffer from anxiety Everyone: Same!! Me: I suffer from gay Everyone: Sam- WAIT nO

"dont go replacing me now...." *REPLACED* _felt that deeply_

Girl: don’t replace me *gets replaced*

R.I.P. Stevie 1 like = 1 prayer 💔💔

This is the Cutest movie EVER...!!! 🤩🧡

Omg on 12:20 Mabel is wearing a Queen shirt and June is holding "Find me" (the call me by your name sequel) and this is just the most perfect thing that ever happened. Also now my cat is giving me a weird look because I squeaked. But ksjdjkajdkhdjks

Her: *puts on suit jacket thingy* Me: *chokes on green tea* 0:

aw the poor girl at the beginning she obviously had a crush on mabel but honestly, june and maybel was an adorable couple

I felt like she did once...feeling like a piece of me was missing and then meeting someone who made me feel whole again....it was my ex best friend...she was always there, always made me laugh, cried with me, I could be open around her and she made everything so much more interesting. Eventually before I knew what any of it was I started falling for her and as the years went on...I lost my chance to tell her and we ended up losing contact. I don’t regret any of it though bc she helped me find who I was. So I guess moral of my story; love is strange and comes in all types of shapes and forms. Never be afraid to express how you feel, and if you find that special someone, never let them go.

June in the beginning: ,,Bye, mum!" June then: ,,My dads..." I thought Stevie was in love with Mabel so I feel bad for her...

i hope they make a part 2 talking about the bestfriend, "just don't go around replacing me!"...but in the end she left her like she was never there.

I LOVE how were all so concerned for the best friend because les be honest, we've all been in her position :|

I officially just realized how lonely I am for the 583 time.😭

June melted my heart, she's such a sweet character. Absolutely loved everything about this, and the cinematography was gorgeous. Thank you for this

Fs for Stevie in the chat bros, a fallen comrade

Everyone’s style is immaculate 🤠

Me at the end: AWWWW- *screen fades to black* Me: SO NO KISS..?!

WHAT ABOUT THE FRIEND THO

I feel.lile June's character can be a little toxic eventually and maple and steive should be romantic interests

The legend says that Mabel started listening to girl in red after meeting June

Everyone in the comments: the best friendddd Me: hm, she really does look like a star burst

"when a mom cant look at her own child because they look like their father" mhhhm SOuNDs LikE THE TODoRokI fAmiLY......

3:19 they b cuffin those jeans They may be just a lil bit gayyy Gayyyy at least My song to this scene

Tbh this was adorable... bUt also sad at the same time "I will never replace you!" *doesn't see her for the rest of the video* I honestly feel bad for her best friend- I sTiLl LiKeD iT tHo-

*puts on green jacket* HOW BA-AD-AD CAN I BE?

Did anyone else see June’s earrings in the thrift store? lmao

“If Mabel is happy with June, then so am i. But spare a thought for , her friend she’s probably got a broken heart.” HOPEFULLY SOMEONE GETS THIS

Hey guys, just small kiss is needed at the end😃. The story is outstanding & fabulous.😘

bro when I saw the neighbourhood shirt on her, I immediately died I LOVE THEM this film is so friggin cute!

They kinda look like eleven and max from stranger things

"And out of nowhere you became the most important." Lesbian best friend: ;-; I thought we talked about not replacing me-

Every few months this shows up in my recommend and I never fail to watch it.

This was great for your first film congrats! I would just like to give you some tips for next time if thats all right. Firstly, I think you should try to pay more attention to how to make the dialogue more natural, when writing think about how a real conversation would go like and what just wouldn't be said naturally, i don't think the entire film was like that at all, but there were some parts that could be better in my opinion. Another thing is that you should focus on the sound and continuity more, like in the car scene, the rain stops in every camera change, and overall the sound is very important, some may say it's even more important than the image so it would be recommended for you to work on it a bit more. Another thing that could just be my taste, but even though the editing was really good already, I would suggest you didn't add so many full black screen seconds since it ruins the impact just one would have and it could get a bit tired for the eye. The last thing is that even though the story was great and with a sorta plot twist in the end that the main character ended up with the new girl, I would suggest that the foreshadowing in the start that made it seem like she was in love with her best friend changed a bit. Since it was inconclusive if they had a thing or not and made it seem like she just abandoned her. Maybe if it was more clear that they were actually just friends or that they didn't want to ruin their friendship or something would have made the story much stronger. That's all, overall i did like this film and I hope you could take this into consideration for future works. I will definitely be subscribing. :)

June gives me so much Luna lovegood vibes!

I'm literally going to present the price of salt tomorrow to my class. RU-vid recommendations are lowkey scaring me it's 4 am tf

"Don't replace me hahaha,that would never happen" Three weeks later, BOOM REPLACED. That's just cold.

I feel for the best friend but on a different note WHY IS EVERYONE SO FRICKIN PRETTY

Imagine recommending a book to ur crush just for them to have a crush on someone else T-T

You really out here making a gorgeous film I’m in tears this was beautiful ahhh my gay heart is in the feels rn 💞💞💞

bro wait y is this actually so amazing and for ur first film WOW

Officially gay approved by the gay lords.

this short film honestly made me really sad, not because i dont have this lifestyle (i wish) but she really did replace her best friend, and i really know how that feels, sure its a cute story but id honestly like a version were its from stevies pov, she never was able to tell her her feelings

dude is June the girl who cosplays beverly Marsh on tik tok

Just a thing I kept noticing: it was definitely noticeable that the lines were very much scripted. I can’t tell if it’s the actors themselves or if the lines just didn’t flow into each other that well.. Don’t mean to give hate.. just constructive criticism I guess.

12:20 did I just recognise the cover of Find Me eventhough they only showed it for a split second? Yes! Am I proud of myself? Absolutely!

I loved this! It has so much personality. Especially the library montage scene, the camera angled and staging were perfect

me: sees girl at beginning me: oh yes she is definitely *hand*
