What are green filmproductions?
Today, emissions, sustainability and climate changes are unavoidable topics in most industries. It also applies to our business in most of the world. A number of guidelines already exist, on how to produce film, television and commercials in Denmark, with a focus on reducing emissions.
It is not yet a requirement, but it seems to be a matter of time before it affects the Danish film og tv industry.
At a sustainable production we commit ourselves to comply with the following:
- Prioritize and use of sustainable transportation
- Energy friendly film equipment and reuse of materials
- Use of local power grid and ’green’ energy suppliers
- No-plastic policy
- Local vegetarian catering
- Sorting garbage
- Climate report
We have years of experience in producing ’green’ film
In close cooperation with BFTP.DK and Green Producers Club we have developed guidelines for a more sustainable production and tested in practice on our own productions through the last six years.
We’ve been producing and developing film, tv and commercials after best-practice in Denmark and know exactly how to comply with the requirements for sustainability in our business. That’s why we offer to help you producing with a minimum of emissions on your next production.
What does it take to produce a ’green’ film?
It will not radically change your form of production or your content, but it requires that the management and all decision-makers who participate in the film production, are aware of their ressource consumptions.
During the production and postproduction we recommend to have an associated Green Manager, to continuously collect data for the productions climate report. When the production is completed you will receive a climate report, that creates an overview and data for the productions total use of emissions. You can integrate the report in your companies total CO2e accounting.
What does a CO2-reduced film production cost?
The price will not change radically, but there will be a surcharge according to the climate report, as it demands continuously data collection and preparation of the final report. The cost is estimated to 5.000 DKK
