Eco Movie Set and Production 

We help various production houses and movie sets to become carbon neutral by analyzing and providing consultations on reducing their emissions and recycling their waste. 

  • Emission Analysis: We conduct a comprehensive assessment of the production's carbon footprint, including energy consumption, transportation, and other emission sources. By analyzing this data, we identify areas with the highest emissions and prioritize actions for reduction.

  • Renewable Energy Integration: We advise on incorporating renewable energy sources such as solar panels, wind turbines, or bioenergy to power the movie set. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels and minimizes greenhouse gas emissions associated with electricity consumption.

  • Efficient Resource Management: We develop strategies to optimize resource usage, including water, electricity, and fuel. This involves implementing energy-efficient lighting systems, water-saving measures, and eco-friendly transportation solutions to minimize waste and promote sustainability.

  • Waste Management and Recycling: We devise waste management plans that ensure each set is Zero Waste and all the waste including the sets are completely recycled into various materials. By setting up recycling stations and educating cast and crew, we ensure that waste is diverted from landfills and recycled.

  • Sustainable Production Practices: We work closely with the production team to promote eco-friendly practices during filming. This includes encouraging the use of digital scripts, minimizing paper usage, and utilizing eco-friendly materials for sets and props. We also provide guidance on responsible sourcing and encourage the use of sustainable suppliers.

  • Sustainable Food Practices: We promote sustainable food practices on movie sets, which include food donation and used food composting. Food Donation: We collaborate with local food banks or charitable organizations to facilitate the donation of surplus food from catering services on set. Instead of letting excess food go to waste, we ensure it reaches those in need. Our team works closely with caterers and production staff to identify opportunities for food donation, ensure proper handling and storage, and coordinate timely pickups. Used Food Composting: We encourage the composting of food scraps and organic waste generated during production. 

  • Offset Programs: In cases where complete elimination of emissions is not feasible, we help movie sets participate in carbon offset programs. By investing in eco projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gases elsewhere, such as brick manufacturing using their own waste and creating toilets from them, forest plantations, waste recycling eco centers, etc.

  • Education and Awareness: We conduct workshops and training sessions to raise awareness among cast and crew about sustainable practices on set. By fostering a culture of environmental consciousness, we inspire individuals to adopt sustainable behaviors both during filming and in their personal lives.

By implementing these strategies, we support movie sets in achieving carbon neutrality and minimizing their environmental impact. Our goal is to contribute to a more sustainable film industry and inspire others to follow suit.
