FICA TIPS Córdoba, 2019

Recognizing problems is the basis for starting to think about effective solutions. We must not be afraid of error. It is imperative to accept and reflect on it, to create work dynamics that respond to the new needs of cinema and society.

Given the high levels of pollution in which our planet is immersed, it is essential to start looking for tools so that from our daily work we generate resources to reduce the impact of our actions.

 

Cinema has always been rooted in the culture of consumerism and greatness. It is time to begin to leave these perspectives behind to create a path that allows the cinema to contribute to the reduction of pollution and, along with it, would take it deeper into society.

 

To start looking for solutions, we must be transparent with the problems that exist. That is, reflecting honestly on our actions will allow us to distinguish those problematic elements and actions in our work chain. For this we recommend the following.

 

Many things happen from the conception of the idea to the script itself, and from the script to the first breakdown as well. We will define these as initial stages, one properly creative and another, of production. A first tool to start developing a project that from its production is sustainable, involves generating creative development logics that adhere to the justified and necessary. That is to say, to think that each element that we develop from the script must have a justification, not just be there. From this perspective, which implies a higher level of complexity around the reflective, a structured and justified script is obtained, which allows to develop a tangible care process.

 

Around the second stage, the one between the script and the first breakdown, answer, around the different areas, the following questions; what does this imply at the environmental level? What does this imply on a social level? That is, we recommend making the first production breakdown around the following categories, locations, transportation, catering, technical photography and lighting requirements, technical sound requirements, staging requirements and acting requirements, and from what is structure, question the aforementioned, and close in an analysis that refers to energy uses, transport uses, waste generation. From this information, you should start thinking about the strategies to generate a control of these elements, for the reduction of consumption and careful consumption and also, to control the forms of waste treatment.
