The Royal Film Commission's activities fall within three main categories:
Production support: the RFC provides support to film and television productions in Jordan. This includes, but is not limited to: location scouting and spotting, facilitating the procurement of location permits, providing customs clearances, and providing assistance production cost reduction by locating cost-effective services. It also provides some production support and advice for independent filmmakers. In addition, the RFC promotes Jordan as a filming location.
Training: the RFC provides emerging film-makers and professionals, from Jordan and the region, with various training opportunities in all fields of film and television production. It regularly organizes seminars and workshops which are usually free of charge. Since its establishment, the RFC has also built several partnerships, including an annual workshops held in partnership with the University Of Southern California, as well as a Screenwriters’ lab (Rawi) held in partnership with the Sundance Institute. These partnerships play an important role in providing the know-how and adding value to the RFC’s educational programs.
Promoting film culture: the RFC organizes regular screenings with local or international partners. Films – narrative, documentaries and shorts - are selected on the basis of their quality; they usually are premiere movies in Jordan. The RFC holds screenings in Amman as well as in the various Governorates. Screenings are usually followed by a discussion with filmmakers.
