In Fall 2005, two groups of nine Location Scouts from Los Angeles, CA, were invited by the Royal Film Commission to tour their beautiful country so that others in Hollywood might learn of its incredible potential as a filming location. They scouted the entire country, from the Syrian border south to Saudia Arabia, from the Israeli border east towards Iraq, and everywhere in between. It was as a direct result of this familiarization tour that Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen filmed in Jordan in 2008.
