What does sustainability in production look like? How can writers integrate sustainability practices into scripts? How do line-producers budget in composting and electric vehicles? What new roles are being created to manage sustainability on set? And why it is so important that the largest studios in the world are engaging with sustainability practices.
Meg Montagnino-Jarrett, MA Film Office Director, Hunter Vaughan Assistant Professor, Visual and Media Arts at Emerson, and Melanie Kahn Production Coordinator, Emerson College, will join us to share their knowledge and answer your questions. This panel is moderated by Carlos R. Gálvez, Economic Mobility and Workforce Development at La Colaborativa, a Chelsea based non-profit with a focus on immigrant rights, social justice and economic development.
The Reel Do-Over is the first ever festival in Chelsea, MA created to spotlight and support local filmmakers, creatives, and storytellers right here in our community.
This isn’t just an event. It’s a moment.
