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.
