When that wasn’t an option due to fire restrictions, they worked closely with their fuel vendor to obtain renewable diesel fuel, which has approximately 80% less lifecycle carbon emissions than standard diesel. In an effort to reduce fossil fuel generators, the location team’s first choice was to work with the local utility to get access to grid electricity to power the set. While filming in the Los Angeles summer heat in 2021, primarily on a secluded ranch, sustainability on set was no small feat. We are hyper aware of the influence our industry has, and we are committed to setting a new bar and continuing to break down boundaries and old habits in crafting better precedents in order to grow these efforts with all our future projects with the additional hope that it will encourage all our filmmaking peers to do the same.” – Ian Cooper, Producer, Nope “Reducing our environmental impact throughout production was extremely important to us, and while we are proud of what we were able to accomplish on Nope, I am confident that we can do even better. The team wanted to make the film as environmentally sustainable as possible, both behind the scenes and on screen, and that’s just what they did.
As soon as the new Universal Pictures horror film Nope was in the works, Monkeypaw’s Producer Ian Cooper eagerly reached out to participate in the NBCUniversal Sustainable Production Program, which empowers production teams to integrate environmental best practices into on-set protocols for film and TV productions.
