Services

Sustainable transformation of advertising production - from the first idea to the final film. Introduction into the processes and standards of green production. Incentivisation for your employees, be that strategists, accountants, creatives or producers. Together, we define hot spots, learn about solutions and put together a green roadmap for your sustainable production set–up. Among other things you’ll learn about sustainable production planning and script checking, calculation, communication and incentive received.

Green Circle Training

We conduct comprehensive evaluations of your current production processes, identifying areas for improvement and recommending sustainable alternatives. Our assessments consider factors such as green storytelling, sustainability on set, and a sustainable supply chain. Before shooting begins, scripts, budgets and production designs are reviewed. Thus, together we create a Carbon Action Plan. Suitable measures are discussed and defined with each head of department in advance, to lower down emissions on set and during all phases of production.

Green Production Consulting

We calculate the CO₂e footprint of your production. Emissions are saved through the use of green production processes and standards. Among other things, the energy requirements for filming and post-production, materials, props, and costumes and screen vehicles are used, as well as light and noise exposure. There is also a review of the sustainability certificates of vehicles and accommodation for cast and crew. These are summarized in a report and can be integrated by marketeers or CSO's into your personal database or ESG reporting.
