00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.800
- [Voiceover] - Lighting's on point.

00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:01.707
- [Voiceover] - Ooh my balls!

00:00:01.707 --> 00:00:03.072
(laughter)

00:00:03.072 --> 00:00:06.672
(upbeat music)

00:00:12.342 --> 00:00:13.728
- I mean how many movie posters

00:00:13.728 --> 00:00:15.499
have you seen with LGBT people in them?

00:00:15.499 --> 00:00:16.800
- Brokeback Mountain.

00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:17.984
- Oh yeah, that's a good one.

00:00:17.984 --> 00:00:19.819
- We're not as represented as we should be

00:00:19.819 --> 00:00:20.928
for being as big a percentage

00:00:20.928 --> 00:00:22.699
of the population as we are.

00:00:22.699 --> 00:00:24.043
- Like there was a token and you're like,

00:00:24.043 --> 00:00:25.526
oh shit there's just one?

00:00:25.526 --> 00:00:27.414
Why is there only just one always?

00:00:27.414 --> 00:00:29.472
- And if you don't identify
with that one token,

00:00:29.472 --> 00:00:31.499
it's like who can you identify with?

00:00:31.499 --> 00:00:33.078
- Trans people are people too,

00:00:33.078 --> 00:00:35.563
and, you know, we're here.

00:00:35.563 --> 00:00:36.470
We've been around.

00:00:36.470 --> 00:00:38.251
- I know for a fact that having

00:00:38.251 --> 00:00:41.174
actual bisexual people out in media

00:00:41.174 --> 00:00:43.318
would have made my coming out experience

00:00:43.318 --> 00:00:45.270
way easier because I fell prey

00:00:45.270 --> 00:00:47.126
to the mindset that you had to be

00:00:47.126 --> 00:00:48.886
one or the other for the longest time.

00:00:48.886 --> 00:00:53.886
(upbeat music)

00:00:54.550 --> 00:00:56.438
- Your eyelash is tickling my lip.

00:00:56.438 --> 00:00:57.622
(laughter)

00:00:57.622 --> 00:00:59.339
- [Photographer] Shoulders down.

00:00:59.339 --> 00:01:03.474
(upbeat music)

00:01:08.109 --> 00:01:08.835
- I'm ready.

00:01:08.835 --> 00:01:09.827
- I'm excited!

00:01:09.827 --> 00:01:10.712
- Let's have like all of you.

00:01:10.712 --> 00:01:12.547
This is a movie about Demi Moore.

00:01:12.547 --> 00:01:15.128
- Ghost is actually one of
my mom's favourite movies.

00:01:15.128 --> 00:01:18.072
- I'll be recreating the
Magic Mike movie poster.

00:01:18.072 --> 00:01:20.973
- [Voiceover] I shouldn't
see much of your eyes.

00:01:20.973 --> 00:01:23.736
- [Voiceover] I'm so excited,
it's one of my favourite films.

00:01:23.736 --> 00:01:25.200
- Trans guys can bring it too,

00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:26.960
and I just want to show the world.

00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:28.539
- We're about to pose for
'The Fault in Our Stars',

00:01:28.539 --> 00:01:30.512
a movie I have personally never seen.

00:01:30.512 --> 00:01:33.115
- It also touches base
for high school audiences,

00:01:33.115 --> 00:01:35.264
because even today in the media the few

00:01:35.264 --> 00:01:39.211
LGBTQ represented films, it's
typically an older generation.

00:01:39.211 --> 00:01:41.067
- You're like, eating my eyelashes.

00:01:41.067 --> 00:01:42.923
- Your eyelash is tickling my lip.

00:01:42.923 --> 00:01:44.278
(giggling)

00:01:44.278 --> 00:01:45.760
- I'm excited for this photoshoot.

00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:47.200
- I can't wait to be DR.

00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:48.822
- I can't wait to be - oh is my fly down?

00:01:48.822 --> 00:01:50.934
I can't wait to be Cher.

00:01:50.934 --> 00:01:53.871
(laughter)

00:01:53.871 --> 00:01:56.153
- I'm really excited
about, taking this, like,

00:01:56.153 --> 00:01:58.178
iconic gay movie and putting a twist on it

00:01:58.178 --> 00:02:00.344
where the gay characters
aren't just the best friends

00:02:00.344 --> 00:02:02.574
in the background, but
we're like front and center.

00:02:02.574 --> 00:02:04.510
- And you know what,
we shouldn't be hidden!

00:02:04.510 --> 00:02:05.437
Shit, we're people too.

00:02:05.437 --> 00:02:06.503
- I'm super pumped.

00:02:06.503 --> 00:02:08.295
- I am so happy. Can I be Superman?

00:02:08.295 --> 00:02:10.194
- [Voiceover] I warn you,
I brought Kryptonite, so...

00:02:10.194 --> 00:02:11.677
- [Voiceover] You are my Kryptonite.

00:02:11.677 --> 00:02:13.607
- I don't know if that's
a compliment or not.

00:02:17.137 --> 00:02:18.027
- I think that went great.

00:02:21.297 --> 00:02:22.304
- [Voiceover] I was feeling myself.

00:02:22.304 --> 00:02:25.163
- It was tickling my nose,
the chest hairs, a little bit.

00:02:25.163 --> 00:02:26.411
- I have chest hair?

00:02:26.411 --> 00:02:27.595
- Yeah, you do.

00:02:27.595 --> 00:02:28.319
- Well.

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:29.078
(laughter)

00:02:29.078 --> 00:02:29.506
- I thought it was cool.

00:02:29.506 --> 00:02:30.892
I was a little bit nervous
at first, you know,

00:02:30.892 --> 00:02:32.268
we all have scars and stuff that we're

00:02:32.268 --> 00:02:34.519
becoming more comfortable with

00:02:34.519 --> 00:02:38.540
but I had a ball overall,
and I loved doing Magic Mike.

00:02:41.230 --> 00:02:43.148
I think that it's important
to show trans youth

00:02:43.148 --> 00:02:46.882
and LGBT youth that the
options are just endless.

00:02:46.882 --> 00:02:47.682
The sky's the limit.

00:02:47.682 --> 00:02:51.511
- I just think it's important
for LGBT media to exist.

00:02:52.891 --> 00:02:54.860
- I feel like movies
and film are, you know,

00:02:54.860 --> 00:02:56.439
it's an escape for people,
and it's hope for people,

00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:59.042
so I feel like we should be
represented in that hope.

00:02:59.042 --> 00:03:00.386
- Fuck yeah there should be more

00:03:00.386 --> 00:03:03.191
LGBTQ people in movies! Shit.

00:03:03.191 --> 00:03:04.375
- I think also seeing different types

00:03:04.375 --> 00:03:07.330
of gay men in the
forefront is important too.

00:03:07.330 --> 00:03:09.544
- [Voiceover] Not all gay
men fit into the, like,

00:03:09.544 --> 00:03:11.279
role that is carved out in the media

00:03:11.279 --> 00:03:12.939
and don't look like that and
I feel like a lot of times

00:03:12.939 --> 00:03:14.697
if you don't look like
that, it can be a struggle.

00:03:16.347 --> 00:03:17.929
- It's badass. I felt so
badass, looking at it,

00:03:17.929 --> 00:03:19.246
I was like, wow.

00:03:20.180 --> 00:03:21.598
- [Voiceover] The kids that
are growing up these days,

00:03:21.598 --> 00:03:23.828
they should see more
of their people, like,

00:03:23.828 --> 00:03:27.124
that that is gonna help them
like, become more themselves

00:03:27.124 --> 00:03:29.726
and like, be, you know, whole.

00:03:29.726 --> 00:03:32.052
- You can do anything and be
anything that you want to.

00:03:32.052 --> 00:03:35.086
(upbeat music)
