At Dirty Looks we are values-led. This means that while we’re passionate about creating stunning visuals, we also care about people and the planet. That’s why we champion indies, are on a mission to reduce our environmental impact, and like to do good things for our community.

Our Sustainability Journey

While we are really proud of our achievements so far, we recognise that there is always more to do, that we don’t have all the answers, and we are always learning. However, we’re excited to share some of the steps we’ve taken to reduce our environmental impact:

We’re pioneers in ethical film rendering – read more below
We’re tracking our carbon footprint on Climate Essentials and have a carbon reduction plan in place
We’ve explored using sustainable building materials in our new studio at Maple Place
We are reviewing our suppliers to prioritise sustainable, ethical, diverse, and local suppliers
We advocates for change: we share our knowledge with the film community whenever we can at talks, events and conferences.

Ethical Film Rendering

We are working in partnership with Deep Green, the sustainable data centre company, on a project which repurposes the heat generated by our post-production computing and contributes it to community swimming pools, for free!

Our Community Focus

We are committed to supporting our local community and inspiring change throughout our industry.

Our team receives two paid volunteer days annually, empowering them to support community projects. Our chosen charity for 2024-25 was In-Deep Taskforce, a grassroots charity supporting isolated older adults and children with Special Educational Needs in Westminster.
