March 27, 2010 — While Mr. Gibbs the executive director of URI United Religions Initiative was in a visit to Jordan, an activity was held in Sahab, for orphan kids to recieve lunch and entertainment segments.

An introduction to documentary film making - Royal Film comission Jordan

I have participated in February 2010 at the ‘Introduction to Documentary Filmmaking’ Workshop which was instructed by The Documentary Filmmaking Group UK Director and filmmaker, Andy Glynne.  It was certainly a great experience to see, hear, feel and being inspired by such a passionate artist and clinical psychologist as Mr. Glynne.

“This is a transition phase… we’re on the road to professional filmmaking,” she said.
