BLACK PEARL joined AFM Sessions on Green Filmmaking: Tools for More Sustainable Production at Every Budget.
Held in Santa Monica, The AFM Sessions presented four full days of programming exploring today’s global entertainment industry and where it is headed. The damaging effects that production can have on the environment are very real. However, with the right knowledge and tools, every production can take steps towards minimizing environmental impact. So, what does sustainable filmmaking look like? Our experts will discuss how their organizations are implementing changes to reduce their carbon footprint and what some of the best practices and tools are that independent producers can start implementing on-set today without breaking their budget.
