Oregon has been a known leader in environmental initiatives since the 1970's, well ahead of the sustainability curve. In keeping with this stewardship, the Governor's Office of Film & Television offers the Green Resource Guide above as an addition to information we already supply to production companies, both inand out-of-state, that are interested in eco-friendly choices.

This departmental guide aims to take the leg work out of finding resource and recycling information, making it easier to choose green as an option for productions of every size, benefiting the local community and the environment overall.

For those companies wishing to take it a step further, The Oregon Film Office has partnered with the Environmental Media Association, (EMA). EMA mobilizes the entertainment industry in a global effort to educate and inspire environmental action by offering Green Seal Guidelines, simple tips, and annually presenting EMA Green Seal Awards to productions making greener efforts in set construction, energy use, resource conservation and recycling.

Lake Owyhee

Lake Owyhee

Lake Owyhee is a 53-mile-long lake formed by Owyhee Dam and features expansive views of the Owyhee Mountains. These rolling desert hills are just one of Oregon’s diverse looks ranging from lush forests, to rugged beaches, to wheat fields as far as the eye can see, all within a two-hour flight from Los Angeles. Whatever your script calls for, we’ve got the locations you need!
