Is it possible to live completely waste free? In this multi-award winning, festival favourite, partners Jen and Grant go head to head in a competition to see who can swear off consumerism and produce the least garbage Their light-hearted competition is set against a darker examination of the problem waste.  Even as Grant and Jen start to garner interest in their project, they struggle to find meaning in their minuscule influence on the large-scale environmental impacts of our “throw-away society”. Described as An Inconvenient Truth meets Super Size Me, The Clean Bin Project features laugh out loud moments, stop motion animations, and unforgettable imagery. Captivating interviews with renowned artist, Chris Jordan and TED Lecturer Captain Charles Moore, make this film a fun and inspiring call to individual action that speaks to crowds of all ages.

whistler RCBC premiere in 4 days!

We're getting set to have our first big showing of the film in Whister at the Recycling Council of BC Conference on Thurs! It will be the first time more than 10 people have sat in a room together and watched the film, so we're a bit nervous, but we know that there has been a lot of positive buzz so far. We're hoping people will be excited about it and tell their friends in Vancouver to come out to our public opening on Sat, May 29th.

Grant has been working to the last minute with final edits (the final version of the film is being rendered to BluRay as we speak! ) and Jen is working on bookings for our tour in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Things are moving fast a furious now - we hit the road in a week and a half!

rough cut done

After two years, the rough cut of our film is finally edited!  We held a tiny test screening to get some feedback, and things are looking pretty good.  We're spending the weekend in the editing room, but we're on track for our first showings at the end of the month!
