Another combo that tickles my fancy – film production and sustainable living.  NOMAD Films started a sustainable filmmaking initiative.  What better way to spread the message.  Or wait, are you busy watching someone choose a husband on TV??  Nooooooo!!!!  It’s not just stories on film that bring environmental issues to light, it’s making the film with sustainable production practices.  I’ve seen countless ways in which film production is wasteful.  We accumulate a lot of things in a short period of time and then want to get rid of them even faster at wrap.  The paper alone must be a forest.  We all do our best, but there can be limitations.  If there were easily implemented sustainable production practices I would hope they’d catch on.  But honestly easy is the key because people don’t want to take extra steps and time is money, especially on a movie set.  Anyhow, check out Project Green 2012 and submit your proposal.  Make your next short film, commercial, YouTube video, or whatever it may be, a sustainably made project!
