About
With so much to be said about sustainability, this Briefing taking us beyond the headlines and into the practical strategies and insights, letting you know what you really need to know about how the industry is moving beyond rhetoric towards lasting, impactful change.
Pathway to Fossil-Fuel-Free Film & TV
As film and TV productions turn more and more to sustainable options, when can the use of fossil fuel be phased out in London? The data shows that huge carbon savings can be made in Film and TV. So what's holding us back? Alexander Lewis-Jones and Michelle Jenkins give a run down of the key developments made in our sector up to now and present the opportunities created by transitioning to low carbon technologies. From the Grid Project to the Fuel Project, hear about new ways to power the industry.

Lights, Camera, Conservation: Telling Compelling Stories Without Leaving a Trace
Filming in protected landscapes offers incredible creative potential — but it also demands care and responsibility. This session introduces new Natural England guidance for filming on protected land, designed to help filmmakers capture powerful stories while safeguarding the environments that inspire them. Discover how the updated framework supports creative access, clarifies permissions, and makes it easier to film responsibly without leaving a trace.

From Set Waste to Social Change: The Human Impact of Prop Reuse
Every day, the TV and film industry generates massive amounts of materials — props, costumes, sets — designed for just a moment on screen. But what if their story didn’t end when the cameras stopped rolling? In this talk, we’ll explore how the reuse and donation of sets, props, and costumes can reduce waste while driving meaningful social change. Discover inspiring examples of materials that once ended up in landfills now gaining a second life in education, community organisations, and beyond — proving that what we create on set has the power to change lives off screen. By shifting how we think about “wrap,” we can build a more positive, people-first approach to sustainability in film and TV.
Find out how your next production can reduce waste, support communities, and extend the life of what you create through smarter reuse.
