Artists' Statement:
Just Me was inspired by high school culture. It focuses on the high school stereotypes that are assumed to be the reality. It's about how despite how much one appears to embody a typical stereotype, they will always be an individual. We wanted to communicate how the outside is not always an exact reflection of the internal. Just Me is about how judging by appearance is an unrealistic interpretation of a person.

As high schoolers struggling to fit into the puzzle of acceptance, we wanted to get people thinking about what it would feel like to walk in somebody else's shoes. The shoes in our video are the same for every stereotypical character to symbolize understanding the importance of self identity. Our main message in this movie is that everybody is unique, and nobody should be automatically assumed to be a stereotype. We hope that our movie would provoke more thoughts about what it really means to belong, normal, and just you.
