Sundance 2012As Official Footwear and Outerwear Sponsor for the fourth consecutive year, Timberland shared exciting new information about activities planned for the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, as part of the brand's Fade to Green platform.  Fade to Green was designed to serve as a reminder that, like Timberland, film goes beyond commerce to celebrate innovation, self expression and style. To raise awareness and inspire action around earthkeeping, Timberland will reward consumers for their commitment to the environment and protecting the outdoors through on-site activities in Park City and online activations via Twitter and Facebook.  The Festival runs from January 19 – 29, 2012 in Park City, Salt Lake City, Ogden and Sundance, Utah.

Imagine delivering true IMPACT through visual media with the potential to transform our global society.

Hertz LogoFor anyone lucky enough to attend the Produced by Conference in early June, you know the event was filled with roundtable discussions, the chance to meet film commissioners from around the world and, of course, some of that famous Burbank heat.  Fortunately, all attendees were able to stay cool thanks to PCB water bottles donated by Hertz.

Smoke StackSince attending the PGA Green conference on Calculating Your Carbon Footprint, I have clearly defined myself as the most annoying person in my production office. From chewing my coordinator’s ear off about the negative effects of idling vehicles, to forcing people to take leftover lunch home with them for dinner ("Your wife doesn’t want to cook tonight, plus your kids love lo mein!") my absurd requests as a Director have officially reached Jedi status.

New Mexico Film Logo

For the second year in a row, the New Mexico Film Office is proud to have a green, paperless booth which minimally consists of a 46’ touch-screen where clients can scroll through thousands of New Mexico locations simply by touch.  A monitor nearby loops scenic New Mexico locations, and clients seriously interested in filming in New Mexico are provided with a CD of locations in 100% recycled sleeves.

 

 

 


 

LA 411

We are excited to be exhibiting this year at the PGA Produced By/Locations Conference.  To eliminate waste this year, we are encouraging everyone who visits our booth to download our recently updated LA 411 iPhone app.  The app provides all the services found in our printed directory, from stage charts to production listings.  Additionally, people who use the app will be able to directly dial listings, save listings to favorites, obtain driving directs to listings, as well as read the 411 eNewsletter and watch the 411 Publishing video series entitled Production Tech Tips.
 
Additionally, we won’t have a lot of printed material at our booth.  Instead, we are providing attendees with re-usable bags made out of recycled material.  The bags were provided by 411 Publishing Green LIstee Adapt Consulting, a company that specializes in providing “green” promotional material.
