A panel comprising international producers, a leading location manager, a major film commissioner and an environmental strategist will reveal how they have battled the increasingly unpredictable elements and how Covid-19 may present even greater issues to reducing the carbon footprint of filmmaking.

They include Iain Smith, the veteran producer behind features including Children Of Men and Mad Max: Fury Road who is also chair of the British Film Commission.

He will be joined by Rebecca O’Brien, producer at Sixteen Films and deputy chair of the European Film Academy. Georgette Turner, is a location manager on blockbusters including Mission: Impossible – Fallout and the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984. Luke Azevedo, is the commissioner for film, television and creative industries at Calgary Economic Development.

Rounding out the panel is Ronny Fritsche, who works at Film i Väst as an environmental strategist, developing sustainable strategies at the Swedish regional film fund, including eco-supervising projects in the region, education and workshops for producers and film workers.

The 30-minute discussion will be followed by a live Q&A in which the audience will be able to ask questions to the speakers; we can also take advance questions at orlando.parfitt@screendaily.com.
