press release

Green Film Lab, the programme wishing to invest in training European cinema professionals on green practices promoted by TorinoFilmLab - laboratory of the National Museum of Cinema - and its partner GREEN FILM - a Trentino Film Commission’s project, in collaboration with EAVE, is ready to receive applications for the second workshop of 2022, that will take place in Palma de Mallorca (Spain) between 29th and 31st July, thanks to the collaboration of Mallorca Film Commission, Fundació Mallorca Turisme and Consell Insular de Mallorca.

Green Film Lab targets

  • European production teams developing a fiction or documentary feature film - at an advanced stage of development - who are willing to make their shooting more sustainable
  • film production professionals eager to hone their skills on how to work on environmentally friendly audiovisual productions
  • green managers (professionals working in the field of environmental management, even if not linked to audiovisual context) interested in learning how to apply their expertise to film sets.

The applications to participate can be submitted until 3rd June, here.

GREEN FILM LAB aims at a more sustainable audiovisual industry and it is truly committed to changing mindset and habits regarding environmental issues in the field.

Each workshop is open to 24 participants selected to work in groups under the guidance of green manager tutors with wide experience in film industry, on feature film projects almost ready to begin filming.

Through a practical, project-based and hands-on approach, the participants will learn how to apply the current best practices in terms of energy saving, transport, accommodation, catering, set decoration, waste management, recycling and communication.

The training is based on the Green Film Rating System and its two main features: the sustainability plan and the certification process for audiovisual projects.

Overall, the programme includes a number of intensive 3-day workshops that will be held along the year in different European countries and regions, in collaboration with various film institutions and funds, proposing the same contents and structure. Green Film Lab will propose one last workshop on 14th-16th October in Sitges (Spain), in collaboration with Government of Catalonia, Catalan Institute for Cultural Companies, Catalunya Film Commission and Servei de Desenvolupament Empresarial. Applications open on 15th June.

Green Film Lab Head of Studies is the Italian producer and TFL alumnus Giovanni Pompili that will work with Louise Marie Smith (UK), founder and managing director of Neptune Environmental Solutions and with Morgane Baudin (France), producer, consultant and trainer on sustainability for film & TV.

Green Film Lab is a programme of TorinoFilmLab and Green Film, promoted by the National Museum of Cinema and Trentino Film Commission, in collaboration with EAVE. Supported by Creative Europe – MEDIA Programme.
