‘This is not an Enbridge animation’: a video war begins

In response to Enbridge’s original animation showing how the pipeline will cross the province, a new anti-pipeline video has been uploaded using real-life wildlife footage.

Dave Shortt, one of the videos filmakers, says he is pushing against the original Enbridge video that he feels glossed over the pipeline’s route through the province.

“We love animation, but it is not the appropriate medium for capturing what is at risk with this pipeline. Let’s get real about what’s at risk,” write the group behind the film, Shortt and Epic Productions.

Shortt said the film was shot on location in early August.

The video has been picked up by the Huffington Post and Vancouver Sun.
