A new Training and Profession: Green Consultant

When the “Ecological Standards for Film, TV and VoD Productions” were introduced in the german market, it became obvious that a new profession and a new qualification is needed in order to train, plan, manage, control and evaluate these new, mandatory sustainable productions. 

In addition, introducing Sustainability in production companies and organizations such as broadcasters, film funds and universities called even more for specialists that are able to cover every relevant aspect of our industry and our crafts.

This is how the “Green Consultant” was born. 


There are other names such as “Green manager”, “Sustainability Officer” or “Eco-Consultant” which are equivalent to this new position.


Due to the fact that we are training Green Consultants in several countries, we are now able to adapt the Green ConsultanCurriculum  to every single country and provide specific trainings with Certifications. 

Agents of Change for Europe

More than 350 Green Consultants have been trained and certified in Germany and it did not take long until the Lower Austrian Film Commission as well as other institutions in Italy and Switzerland adopted this Curriculum as well.

The now existing 500 Green Consultants in Germany, Austria and Italy are incredibly effective “agents of transformation”. 

Together they have achieved tremendous savings in terms of CO2e-emissions, harmful materials, waste and other vital issues. But most of all they have improved workflows, introduced new technologies and boosted new approaches in terms of writing, creating, producing, managing and distributing Films and Media Content of all kinds.
