Abstract. The use of Extended Reality technology has been increasingly adopted in visual effects techniques for virtual production, offering significant advantages in terms of energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and versatility. As virtual production becomes more prevalent in the entertainment industry, the sustainability of technology must be carefully considered. LED screens offer many benefits but can have a significant carbon footprint and environmental impact. It is necessary to identify strategies for reducing the environmental impact of LED screens, including the consumption of energy and resources during production and the disposal of hazardous materials at the end of their lifespan, to ensure the long-term viability of virtual production. The author evaluates the environmental impact of Extended reality technology in visual effects techniques for a sustainable virtual production for filmmaking. This research study will use a mixed-methods approach of qualitative interviews with industry practitioners and quantitative analysis of energy consumption in virtual production practices. The research hypothesis for this study is that the implementation of extended reality technology in visual effects techniques can lead to a reduction in environmental impact and contribute to sustainable virtual production practices. This hypothesis is based on the premise that extended reality technology can potentially reduce the need for physical sets and props, and decrease the use of materials and energy required for production and disposal. By evaluating the environmental impact of extended reality technology in virtual production, this study aims to provide evidence that supports this hypothesis and identifies opportunities for further sustainable practices in the industry.
