May 10, 2019September 6, 2020 Jo @ AdGreen EVENT

Last week for the fifth time, industry folks gathered for another Green Production Get Together at The Mill. Only this time there was a twist – I co-hosted with the brilliant team at albert, the sustainability initiative working with the TV and Film industry. We already share a common goal, zero waste and zero carbon […]

October 18, 2018September 6, 2020 Jo @ AdGreen EVENT

After following the progress of Vancouver International Film Festival’s Sustainable Production Forum for the past couple of years, it was an honour to be invited over to speak this year! For the first time, the 2 day event (curated by Green Spark Group’s Zena Harris), included a session on advertising. The aim was for those […]

Last week, we had our second Green Production Get Together! Like the first one back in March, it was again hosted by The Mill in their 5th floor bar, and was well attended with a mix of production people, agency staff, crew and suppliers.   After a bit of mixing and mingling, we kicked off by recapping […]

#PLASTICCHALLENGE JUNE!

July 11, 2017July 12, 2017 Jo @ AdGreen BITS N BOBS

At the end of May I decided to enrol on  the Marine Conservation Society’s plastic challenge. 8 million tons of plastic ends up in our oceans each year and it only breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, never disappearing completely. With that in mind it seemed reasonable that I could at least try to live […]

A LETTER FROM AMERICA: FICC17

May 22, 2017June 15, 2017 Jo @ AdGreen BITS N BOBS, EVENT

On Saturday I pressed pause on my California road trip and went along to the 10th annual Film in California conference held at CBS in Studio City, LA. I’d learned about the event last December, when I was part of the sustainability panel at TLG Focus with California Film Commissioner Amy Lemisch. At the time […]

QUANTUM WASTE FIT THE BILL!

February 1, 2017June 15, 2017 Jo @ AdGreen BITS N BOBS

Recycling doesn’t actually happen does it? Oh yes it does!  It all goes in landfill right? Oh no it doesn’t! In the autumn we began recommending Quantum Waste, an ethical composting, recycling, and waste company, adding full details of their location waste service to our ‘Waste Management on Set’ page. We thought it was about time […]

CASE STUDY: GREAT GUNS / GREY / HERBAL ESSENCES

January 24, 2017January 20, 2021 Jo @ AdGreen CASE STUDY

So you might’ve read a few of these now, and there are some recurring themes you may have noticed. As with my other location jobs last year, we did the usuals working through the checklist – y’know: recycling, Ram Board to protect the floor, water coolers, barely printing anything; but we also did a few other bits […]

CASE STUDY: B-REEL FILMS / BROOKLYN BROTHERS / OVO ENERGY

October 5, 2016January 20, 2021 Jo @ AdGreen CASE STUDY

This one’s a location job –  finally! This time for Ovo Energy’s campaign (33% renewable as standard don’t ya know), with Jesper Hiro at B-Reel Films. Thankfully we had just one location for our 2 day shoot – unit moves are a pain in the proverbial when it comes to getting everything set up again, including any green measures. Working […]

CASE STUDY: DARK ENERGY / R/GA / UNILEVER ST. IVES

September 14, 2016January 20, 2021 Jo @ AdGreen CASE STUDY

Whilst at Dark Energy to production manage a shoot for cool New York based photographer/director Brayden Olson, I experienced an AdGreen first. The client, Unilever, requested that we try to reduce food waste where possible. This was a beauty job for skin care brand St. Ives, with lots of lovely fresh fruit and veg so they wanted to make […]

CASE STUDY: TH2NG / CHINA MADRID / SCHWEPPES

After working on M&S at Park Pictures, next I headed off to th2ng, to production manage a Schweppes job, directed by Justin Dickel for Spanish agency China Madrid. Again we were at Black Island, and as before they supplied Vegware compostable plates and bowls, as well as real mugs, as per the requests we’d sent them […]
