The Director’s Guild of Canada (DGC) unveiled their Low-Carbon GenAI Toolkit on Earth Day!
Generative AI is becoming part of everyday workflows, from pre-production and editing to visual effects and post-production. These tools rely on energy-intensive infrastructure with a real environmental footprint that often remains invisible to creators.
The toolkit is a practical resource designed to help the screen industry reduce the environmental impactt of generative AI. The toolkit includes a carbon calculator that estimates use and emissions associated with common generative AI tasks.
This toolkit helps make that impact visible and supports more informed decisions in your work. Check it out!
