Circular Economy

The Reel Green™ Circular Economy committee was born out of the need to create resources and provide guidance for circular economy initiatives in the motion picture industry. The committee engages with industry stakeholders, vendors and crew to discuss barriers and solutions to adopting a circular business model to reduce the industry’s carbon footprint.

Our Priorities
The Circular Economy Committee supports sustainable production in B.C. by creating resources, developing a public communication hub for material reuse, and providing guidance to create more circularity initiatives and discussions in the B.C. motion picture industry.

 

Circular Economy

Redefine the production process to be circular and prioritize material reuse. 

Built Environment

Ensure that all studios, stage owners/operators and suppliers have a circular material management plan and share it with productions.

Production Support

Pursue robust supplier engagement to increase the number of Reel Green Vendors that provide green supply chain options for production.
