Daniel Aiss (The Netherlands)
The Dutch Daniel Aiss, of ALP productions, is proudly ‘homegrown’ for us in more ways than one. Daniel got his start in sustainable filmmaking as a competitor during the 2013 professional edition of our Green Filmmaking Competition.

Green filmmaking has ‘landed’ across Europe
Last week, our masterclass ‘Green Filmmaking is taking over Europe’ took place at the EYE Amsterdam, in conjunction with the Festival Film&Science, and was a true success. The masterclass was hosted by our project leader Chai Locher, and took place to a full house, brimming with enthusiastic attendees from film professionals to media students, and sustainability entrepreneurs. There is clear European-wide support for green filmmaking, and initial connections between national industries have been made. Now the question is: how can we consolidate across boarders to further refine and improve the process, in favour of an advanced and innovative EU film industry? Check out what’s next for EU green filmmaking in a recap of the day’s events here, or check out the day in pictures here.
