Enigma Bird
An investigation into the appearance of a strange bird in a strange place.
It is everywhere. You walk past it on the street everyday without realizing. On those green electrical boxes in neighbourhoods and suburbs across the GTA is a warning label with the Enigma Bird. Take a look next time you walk by.
What does it have to do with electrical safety and why does it look like that? |

Gillian MacLeod
Producer I am an aspiring production manager in the film and television industry who is passionate about documentary films and hope that one day they can take me around the world. My goals are to operate both in the UK as well as Canada. |
Michael Szalay
Director As a child the only thing I ever wanted to do with my life was to grow up to be a zoologist. Then I went to film school. I have always loved telling stories that go to strange and unexpected places and directing lets me do that in fun new ways. |
James Ferguson
Director As a film fanatic, I love all aspects of film. Directing allows me to realize this love by having a say in every part of a film. I am hoping one day I’ll be able to create a film/video or any piece of media that inspires others the way film inspired me. |
Chris Boreky
DOP Film to me is the ultimate collaborative artform, being made up of every creative medium. Coming from a family and long line of artists, film was the way to go to best express the full range of my interests and skills. As DOP I was able to work with a fantastic crew and direct the many aspects of the film’s visuals. I hope to work on productions like this everyday in the future. |
Dave Woodcock
1st AC As far back as I can remember, I wanted to be a 1st AC. Having the responsibility of handing a DOP the lens they need is such a rush. I hope one day to have my own 1st AC handing me a lens to attach to a camera. |
Brian Hume
Gaffer/Grip As my father was a photographer, I started using cameras at a young age. Over the years I’ve developed my skills in all aspects of the camera department and hope to achieve a successful career in film. |
Rachael Zerafa
On-Set Sound/Sound Editor I am an all around soundie! Started with live sound for musicals in high school and combined it with my love of movies and here I am! I enjoy post production editing especially Sound Effect’s editing and Foley! I hope to one day live in BC to continue my love of sound for film! |
Tom Labonte
On-Set Sound I do sound. I go out and search for all the sounds, I won’t stop until I have uncovered all the sounds, also Enigma Bird is great. |
James Ramlal
On-Set Sound I love film and I definitely have a passion for storytelling! Similarly to Rachael, I started off doing live theatre sound and lighting which then became film. I eventually want to live in LA and continue filmmaking there :) |
Sebastian Blokowski
Editor I’ve always had a passion for storytelling in film and while this passion began behind the camera, it soon became centered around the art of editing. Through this film and going forward in my career, I hope to tell interesting stories while helping to create engaging and thought-provoking media. |

Griffin West
Colourist/VFX Griffin's passion for post production started at the age of ten when he first discovered Windows Movie Maker. Since then Griffin has always dreamed of cutting film and creating visual effects. The mystery behind the story of Enigma Bird is what drove Griffin to be a part of the post production team! Griffin hopes to inspire other editors later on with the art of picture editing. |
