PERCEPTION - It's easy to believe that everyone else's life is perfect, especially when outwardly it seems to be. However, sometimes, if you just take the time to look a little bit deeper, you may find that the people you truly envy the most, are often the ones struggling more than you can imagine.
Script comments and analysis from R. Jackson from the
Santa Barbara International Screenplay Awards
​
"Perception" is a dark mini drama/mystery rendered by the writer in the mode of a classic Twilight Zone episode. This short film is hung on the bones of a fine script, which reminds us that things are not what they seem, even when we believe we sense something unseemly. "Perception" is packed with expertly-wrought irony and misdirection, and comes complete with a twist ending so well-disguised and executed we are left shaken as viewers, wondering what clues we missed, and feeling we are not the same people we were at the instant we settled in to watch the film. In "Perception" we see the influence of Kubrick, and Ray Bradbury, and Rod Serling as previously mentioned. Kudos to the writer.
