Creative director Jeremy Dimmock at Polyester Studio in Toronto: “[This is an] educational spot for Animal Alliance on ending the Cormorant hunt in Ontario.

“We’re working to raise attention on a new government policy that will undo years of conservation work that helped the spectacular return of the Double-crested Cormorant, whose population was driven to precarious numbers twice in the last two centuries.

“The number one priority is getting the government to halt the cull before even more birds fall victim to it.”
