Enigma: Our new Sci-fi Film!

Hey everyone!

I’m new to the board and just wanted to introduce ourselves and our film "Enigma"

Its been a project of ours for almost 5 years! Had to work it around our full time jobs! We just started playing festivals. Our Debut Fest (Dances with Films) was at the beginning of June and we ended up winning Audience Choice for best short which was a wonderful way to start the festival run. The next screenings at the moment are "Action On Film International Film Festival" end of July and "Dragon*Con International Film Festival" the first week in September.

A few quick facts…

*42 mins long
*HD (Panasonic Varicam)
*225 VFX shots
*9 day shoot

Here’s the trailer and some short clips of the movie. (I suggest hitting the HD button under the video for better playback)

Nice to meet you all, and let me know if you have any questions about the film!
