Green Production Lab - El Prat de Llobregat, Spain

Green Production Lab aims at involving professionals coming from the sustainability world in film production, who can bring their specific skills to develop efficient sustainability strategies. The programme will match the sustainability professionals with teams made up of a producer + a crew member (e.g. line producer, production coordinator...) working on concrete feature film projects (fiction or documentary) close to the production stage. Together they will develop a full sustainability plan.
