Greening Our Film Industry

Fri 8th July 2022



Adopting practices that promote sustainability has become a new standard on most productions, and an increasing number of Irish crew, funders, and producers are looking to make their productions less taxing on the environment.

During this session you will hear from:

  • Irish funders and broadcasters on their strategies for sustainable productions

  • Representatives from the ScreenGreening coalition who will focus on the latest environmental sustainability requirements when it comes to making an application to Screen Ireland, the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland or for the Section 481 tax credit

  • The broadcasters will also outline the sort of standards that they now require
