ÉCRIRE POUR DEMAIN

ADOPT AN ECO-RESPONSIBLE APPROACH FROM THE SCRIPTWRITING STAGE

Rolling Green is proud to announce its new training “Write for Tomorrow: adopt an eco-responsible approach from the scriptwriting stage.”

Through this training, Rolling Green aims to give participants the knowledge and methods to address current climate issues in their stories in a subtle and nuanced way, without distorting or censoring the script. Indeed, audiovisual content, especially fiction and entertainment, has a major power to raise awareness, awaken consciences, and encourage action. It is therefore during the creation phase that significant changes can happen.
