Inspiring the Shift to Ethical & Regenerative Production  

THE FUTURE OF OUR INDUSTRY IS TO HAVE A SMALL BUT EFFECTIVE SUSTAINABILITY DEPARTMENT AS STANDARD ON EVERY FILM, TELEVISION, AND COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION. VERY SOON, ALL ON-SCREEN PRODUCTS AND ASPIRATIONAL BEHAVIOR WILL BE SUSTAINABLE AND ETHICAL, INSPIRING A GLOBAL SHIFT TO CONSCIOUS LIFESTYLES.

IT IS SIMPLY A MATTER OF WHO WILL JOIN US IN TAKING THE LEAD.

HEALTH, SAFETY & SUSTAINABILITY

A mutually beneficial focus.

WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER

Making eco-conscious choices can be safe and hygienic, as well as smart for our collective well-being.

The correlation between single-use disposable and sanitary might seem logical, but in fact single use it is not always the best option to keep us safe! 

GENERAL KIT AND STAFFING:

We’ve expanded our Signature Sustainability Kits to include expendable options for eco-friendly masks, gloves, antiseptic alcohol wipes, hand sanitizer and UV light

Our Sustainability Coordinators are now all trained and certified by the World Health Organization in Covid-19 precautions and workplace best practices. 

HYDRATION:

We recommend more than ever that people bring a reusable water bottle that is uniquely theirs.
Research has shown that reverting to unmarked single use plastic bottles simply increases the chances of someone else touching your anonymous bottle in search of their own.

We will also continue to offer reusable hydration bottles with name tags from VAPUR. With their patented technology of separate drinking/refill parts we can ensure maximum safety. 

CATERING/CRAFT:

• Mandate augmented served buffet plates from catering, no self serve.

• Sustainable utensils sets dispersed individually by catering or designated Sustainability PA.

• Compostable single use serve wear and cups deployed for all productions.

• Craft Service will distribute food and beverages to individuals, no buffet table.

TRASH:

Sanitary waste practices will be more important than ever.
Good Planet has prided itself on creating clean and safe sets since 2011. Our Signature Resource Recovery stations that divert waste from landfills into recycling streams or compost will help mitigate the influx of disposables that may occur due to PPE and other behaviors sparked by health considerations and fears. We focus on education, adoption and inclusive practices to ensure the comfort and ease of everyone during these new times

PROPS AND SET PIECES:

We will continue our prized recycling system and partnerships with makers’ spaces and student programs.
We will ensure proper sanitation of any and all donations. 

As most of us in production are aware, our industry is incredibly wasteful, sending thousands of tons of waste to landfills every year, much of which can be re-purposed, recycled, donated, or composted. Good Planet Innovation is guiding the shift to sustainable practices, both behind the scenes and on screen. Providing consultation and hands on support from pre-production to post, Good Planet finds sustainable solutions for every department, from art department to catering, from the office to transportation. Enabling positive, eco-friendly operations behind the scenes without compromising the production’s timeline, budget, quality, or safety goals.

Good Planet analyzes every department on each individual project to generate a customized sustainability plan that is both highly effective and attainable within the budget and scope of the project.  In addition to the robust programs during productions, we will manage and coordinate donations of everything from sets to wardrobe to leftover catered food, keeping nearly all of it out of the landfill, often making the production ‘zero-waste' while supporting the local community. Our sustainability initiatives will save the production money in many departments, provide tax receipts for the donations, and create valuable positive PR content for the project and company.

You’re in good company! Our clients include:

As filmmakers, we also have powerful influence on our audiences and can use that power for good through conscious product and behavior integration while maintaining and even enhancing the integrity of the story. Good Planet Innovation provides full spectrum brand integration and consulting services to help you inspire a positive shift in your audiences’ behavior well after they have enjoyed your film.

Brand and product integrations are becoming increasingly effective ways for brands to reach consumers. We leverage these opportunities exclusively for sustainable and ethical products. 

In addition to our other services, Good Planet Innovation also works closely with our brand clients to help market their products in a variety of ways. We leverage our relationships to identify sponsorship opportunities that increase the brand awareness of our client's products and develop sales pitches to prospective businesses. Additionally, we participate in gifting suites before a variety of movie and music award ceremonies to expose our client's products to A list celebrities. We will soon be announcing an exciting initiative that will give ethical brands global exposure while supporting important causes.
