SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS FOR CHICAGO PRODUCTION COMPANY
Chicago, Illinois: You won’t find a printer, post-it-note or scrap of paper at Cimaglia Productions (www.cimagliaproductions.com), a Chicago-based, full service production company. This forward-thinking production company operates more efficiently by incorporating sustainable business practices. Its seasoned staff of media professionals has created one of the leading high tech, energy-efficient production offices in Chicago and Boca Raton—completely paperless, completely sustainable.
The founder and CEO of Cimaglia Productions, Matt Cimaglia, made a choice to go green when he launched his office inside Chicago’s landmark John Hancock Building. “Not only did I see a competitive advantage to going green but also the social responsibility component compelled me.� Cimaglia Productions strives to achieve a perfect harmony between sustainability and profitability.
The focus on green forms the company’s culture and guides decisions. Inside, sustainable techniques include filming on digital camera in lieu of wasteful tape. Shutting off computers and other extraneous equipment at the end of each day is another simple, yet overlooked way to save energy and dollars. Even the littlest details incorporate sustainability–the office location was chosen over others based on its proximity to public transportation.
The commitment to sustainable business practices has spurred some unorthodox client solutions. The remote file-sharing system means that a full edit suite can be set up anywhere, sharing scripts and video without printing a page.
Sustainability, profitability and global environmental stewardship is the new business model. Cimaglia Productions not only achieves that balance, but also sets the standard for the production industry.
