Hi all
Announcing an upcoming research seminar hosted by the Screen Media Research Centre at Brunel University London:
Greening the Screen: An Environmental Challenge
Dr. Ekin Gündüz Özdemirci, Beykent University, Turkey
Wednesday 25 March, 2015, 4.30, GASK 117 (Gaskell Building)
How often do we consider the environmental impact of a film as an industrial process? In this seminar, I will talk about the challenges and limitations of implementing sustainability practices in the British film and TV industries. I will explore the place of the film industry in the global economic system and the contradictory position of digitalization in terms of environmental impact. Using interviews with industry representatives and some case studies, I will discuss the possibilities of creating a ‘change in behaviour’ in the film industry not only in terms of embedding green measures but also of reconstituting industrial mechanisms.
All welcome. Directions on how to get Brunel and campus maps are available here: http://www.brunel.ac.uk/about/campus/directions
