HAPPY PEOPLE MAKE GREAT FILMS
Filmmaking can be a tricky business but that doesn’t mean it needs to harm people or the planet in the process. Amazing people and sustainable practices are at the heart of what we do at Firewood. The way we see it is simple - a happy and safe set makes better films. Collaboration with our community of partners and freelancers makes us who we are.
People
We’ve been fortunate enough to work with people from all walks of the industry from grizzled veterans to people stepping foot on set for the first time. We want to empower everyone on set to do their best work and go home feeling looked after and accomplished.
Planet
Our environmental sustainability is super important to us and we’re proud to be members of 1% For The Planet. The average TVC generates 1-2 tonnes of CO2e per production day - that’s over a quarter of the average person’s annual amount! We take responsibility for our part in this and take steps on our productions to reduce emissions, reduce waste, and reduce harm to our planet.
Our Community
It’s not just about the time we spend together on set but off set too that makes our community so special. We host a bi-weekly film club over on Instagram and a quarterly event for filmmakers launching in December to show works in progress and get feedback from their peers.
