WRITE FOR TOMORROW

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.

Training presentation

This training reflects a desire to provide content creators with tools and methods to help them integrate climate issues into their narratives, without distorting or censoring their scripts.

The training covers the following topics: 

  • Understanding the link between narratives and behaviors, and the importance of art, culture, and fiction in the socio-ecological transition
  • Exploring how fiction and non-scripted content can integrate climate issues into stories, and identifying resources and tools 
  • Identifying and overcoming obstacles or resistance

Objectives of the training: 

  • Encourage the creativity and imagination of screenwriters to raise public awareness 
  • Help change mindsets 
  • Awaken consciences, encourage climate action rather than inertia
  • Create a space for awareness and spark discussions about new approaches to screenwriting
