Hi! My name is Adam Henry Garcia and I am an actor, video editor and producer. I have 4 Emmy's, 3 Indie Series Awards, 1 Webby, 1 Telly and a partridge in a pear tree. I love making independent streaming content which brings us to this submission: "Fairytale Fallout". It is a dark comedy show divided into parts and (hopefully) worth your valuable internet video watching time. Below is the official synopsis for the show. Thanks for taking a look!! -- Fairytale Fallout gives voice to numerous characters who have either been taken for granted or have been ignored entirely. In a series of short episodes this crafty and creative series tells the stories of those affected by classic fairytale characters, and not for the better. All of these characters are now, finally, being given the chance to speak... and they ALL have something to say. We are able to put names to faces that have barely been a background blur up until now and the results are downright dark-comedy gold! Filled with the bitter, the sweet, the high and the low... At the end of the day this show is a love letter to the ignored. An olive branch to the day player. A series for anyone who has ever felt relegated to the background of someone else's fairytale.*This entry is participating in the ReelShort Reel Vertical Impact contest

When a young woman accepts what seems like an easy house sitting job, she expects a peaceful evening alone. But as the night unfolds, the line between reality and imagination begins to blur. This film series is written, performed, directed, and edited by me, Coraima Villamizar :) I made this film because I wanted to show that it's still possible to bring your ideas to life, even without professional equipment or a big crew. I hope you enjoy it and feel inspired to create a story of your own. Thank you for your support - I greatly appreciate your vote!*This entry is participating in the ReelShort Reel Vertical Impact contest

Retired Crash Dummy Turned Highest Self I used to wear my pain like armor I thought being ride or die made me strong That sacrificing myself for love meant I was loyal That being chosen meant I had to endure being broken first But the truth is, I was a crash dummy for pain. I was male centered Raised in a dynamic where I believed love had to be earned by pleasing fixing and proving And because of that, I attracted someone who mirrored everything I hadnt healed A narcissist who didnt just hurt me he exposed me He mirrored my abandonment wounds He mirrored the emotional neglect I had normalized He mirrored the gaslighting I grew up with and learned to call love That relationship wasnt a curse It was an initiation It forced me to see myself To stop pretending To stop calling trauma loyalty To face my inner child who never got chosen who never got protected who never got told she was enough just by being And for the first time I chose her That pain led me to my power That heartbreak cracked me open That darkness made me meet my light I stopped chasing love and started becoming it I stopped begging for the bare minimum and started expecting divine alignment And the moment I stopped identifying with struggle my true lover came The one who sees me holds me and respects me not because I earned it but because hes aligned with the healed version of me The version that knows what she deserves The version that no longer mistakes intensity for intimacy The version that no longer crashes for love I am no longer the girl who thought love meant pain I am the woman who met herself and then met her match*This entry is participating in the ReelShort Reel Vertical Impact contest

"What you bury always finds its way home" There are stories told around every campfire. But some... are whispered by the dead. In the woods four teens huddle near a flickering fire, laughing off a local legend. But, the story of Clara, a girl who vanished without a trace... and who, they say, never left is real. A sketchbook. A whisper in the trees. A name spoken too loud. And all the sudden, something answers. As the flame dies down, the story begins. But this isn't a tale told by a campfire. It's Clara's story, and she's telling it. What unfolds is a haunting mystery unraveling across ten eerie, fast-paced vertical episodes. Through fog-drenched woods and claustrophobic hallways, we follow Clara - or who she once was - as her memory fractures and shadows twist into reality. She's desperate to uncover a truth that was buried with her body... and expose the betrayal that left her gasping for breath beneath the soil. The person she tried to save, only ends up causing her own life. Each episode deepens the dread as Clara slips between timelines between life and dead and others begin to feel her presence. The killer's sister draws rooms no one's shown her. Her brother, who we learn is behind it all, receives messages from the number of someone long dead. Polaroids fall from nowhere, capturing moments no one remembers posing for. And in the basement, something waits and memories lie. But this is more than a ghost story. It's about the weight of guilt, the danger of forgetting, and the legacy trauma leaves behind. Because Clara was never just one girl, and what happened to her, could happen again. When the campfire returns, we learn the story isn't over. It never was. *This entry is participating in the ReelShort Reel Vertical Impact contest
