The Royal Film Commission- Jordan is pleased to announce the upcoming Documentary Film Workshop instructed by established faculty members of the University Of Southern California, School Of Cinematic Arts in LA (USC).

The two-session workshop aims to assist a group of emerging filmmakers (14 participants) with an understanding of the arts and practice of Documentary Film. This will help them find their own voices as Documentary filmmakers, through a hands-on program.

During the first session, participants will join classes on documentary film, storytelling and receive technical training on camera and editing.

Instructors will assist participants in-between the two sessions. By late January, participants would have finished shooting their project. Instructors will assist in the final stages of the project.

If interested, please write to the Royal Film Commission at: [email protected]. The subject should read: Documentary Film Workshop. Thanks to include a cover letter explaining your previous experience.

Application deadline: October 5th, 2008.

Selected participants will be notified on October 12th, 2008.
