Nad Al Sheba BBQ

Our lovely friend Doreen The Vet invited us to BBQ that lasted for 14hours or more,
she cooked us her signature cheese soup as well as a starter, was awesome
we also had an encounter with a scorpion which we later burnt :S

Koshan al Omr June 2013

So the winner is Elias, first impression of course after knowing he's only a boy "lucky kid!"
later through that day, June 30th 2013, I met with the whole family, one very warm family that one cant avoid falling in love with
we broke the news to them at home, and just then the room was quiet for a few minutes, the only thing you can hear is the mother crying, and everyone else was absolutely speechless and in tears, unbelievable energy shift, until I finally broke it and said "Mabrook!" reminding them that this is happy news and then they started laughing again :)

Koshan Al Omr Jan 2013

Jordan Ahli bank gives away a villa every 6 months, their product is the Koshan El Omr savings account, earlier this year, Jan 2013, this lucky guy won it, and we (the production team) were there to document it on camera, later on this month they'll announce the second winner of this year, I hope it's me :)

Waal Ya Zalameh!

So I participated in the 48 hour film

was the writer in a team called 48ers, we were supposed to make a short film in 48 hours, a comedy about Rami or Rania who are book collectors, we had to use the phrase "All I need is a sign" and a towel as a prop!!!

seemed as mission impossible to make a film using all that, it was a very hectic weekend, most of the team didn't sleep at all, but it was so much fun!

 Shooting in Jabal Amman

Editing on the second day, deadline approaching

unfortunately, we were late, the deadline was at 7PM, 7:30 the latest, we submitted at 7:35!

only 3 films out of 12 made it on time, but we won Best Of Late, and I think we weere competing with a bigger number of films :P

Anyway, Jarash Festival decided to screen our film, links bellow are of Widad our director talking about our film on local TV. and the actual film :)
