ASL... Please
directed by Phil Noble
A young girl named Toni dreams of geting a luscious date for a big concert.
In an attempt to cover her perceived inadequacies, she meets potential dates online
through CHATROOMS and TV TEXTING PROGRAMS. She changes her personality,
suiting her character - and even her gender - to the other chatters' preferences.
Slowly, Toni becomes the character, she gets confused about herself and her own sexuality.
she becomes more daring in her alternate world, but when the big day comes, we will find
out if she will continue this daringness, along with the other GUYS/GIRLS/GAYS she
encounters through her varied personalities.
Partially set in a CYBERWORLD, the characters appear in " WINDOWS" onstage
through songs, dances, and vsual/multimedia "POP-UPS" simulating a
computer and culminating in a rave concert party.

This has been my sanctuary for four years already. It's my extension. Almost like a limb out in the open. Know that people want to express, to just chuck it out, to just be themselves even on something as artificial as blog. I am that people. So don't mind me...
