JORDAN - THE INCREDIBLE HOST

REVIVING AN ANCIENT WORD TO SHOW THE GENEROSITY OF JORDANIANS

THE INSIGHT

Jordanians are known for the hospitality and generosity. They will, without a doubt, go out of their way to help you, pay for the bill, or even invite you over if you needed accommodation. Through our research we found an ancient word barely used in the Arab region anymore and was widely misunderstood as a meaning. Though, because of their generosity, Jordanians still understood and used this ancient word. “Al Mo’azeb” which loosely translates to “THE INCREDIBLE HOST”. We utilized this word and meaning as the center of the campaign.

THE IDEA

A POV-STYLE FILM OF A TOURIST EXPERIENCE THE GENEROSITY.

The idea of the TVC is to see Jordan in the eyes of tourist as they experience the generosity of Jordanians. The script was created with only a few words that Arabs use to show that generosity “Tfadal - Join us”, “Ahlan w Sahlan - Hello and Welcome”, “Sa7tein”. The film was designed to show close-ups of Jordanians as they welcomed the tourist while also portraying the hidden gems, destinations, and activities that is available in Jordan.
