In this episode, Virginie Drouot (pronounced Droo-oh), social entrepreneur and Founder of EcoMind Set Inc explains the situation facing Hollywood as production begins reopening under a new set of safety provisions due to COVID-19.

Her start up, EcoMind Set, which she founded in 2018, establishes both a COVID-19-compliant production environment and green, innovative and affordable supplies and services such as recyclable trash bags and paper towels and compostable cups, lids, utensils, straws and bowls to minimize waste in the film and commercial business for a wide range of high profile clients.

With a background of 20 years in production, having worked on production for major films and with a producing history of her own, she provides her own life lessons, advice and findings on how to improve and sustain energy, tools and tips for budding social entrepreneurs and the importance of protecting the natural wonders of the planet.
