Green Screen is an initiative to help encourage environmentally friendly filming in the capital.

It was launched in February 2008 to help film, TV and commercial producers cut climate change emissions in the capital. Supported by the London Filming Partnership, Green Screen has developed a practical package of support for film-makers.

Following extensive research in consultation with some of the leading companies and names in the film, TV and commercial production sector, the Mayor of London and Film London have produced a user-friendly and practical guide (see downloads below). Green Screen identifies key action areas that are likely to have the greatest impact in dramatically decreasing the environmental impact of screen production - both on location and in the studio.


Productions can also identify how much carbon and waste they produce, and where best to make reductions, using the handy Carbon Calculator below (NB. this is a tabbed spreadsheet):
