Film Location Management in Jordan | Royal Film Commission
Channel: Royal Film Commission (RFC)

The Royal Film Commission - Jordan (RFC), supported by the U.S. Embassy in Jordan, recently organized the "Location Management" workshop to enhance the skills and knowledge of beginner and semi-intermediate level participants in the profession of location management. Led by expert trainers Andrea Keener and Kim Dillinger Davis, the workshop took place in Amman, Al Salt, and Wadi Rum. It's great to see initiatives like this supporting the growth of the film industry in Jordan!

Designed for beginners and semi-intermediate participants, the workshop aimed to enhance their skills and knowledge in the profession of location management.

Participants gained a better understanding of the role of a location scout manager, including breaking down a script to identify the needed locations, researching and scouting locations, breaking down a budget, and obtaining permits to film in a legal manner. They also learned about the location manager's responsibility to oversee safety and liability issues, as well as the importance of "wrapping" locations properly to make sure sites were returned to their original condition before filming.

We are thrilled to have hosted such an informative and engaging workshop last November. Stay tuned for updates on upcoming workshops!
