Pre-Production

Concept Design and Treatments

Even before a single frame has been shot we'll chart the route to success, using our experience to transform your first thoughts into a winning formula.

Research

Our teams of experts consider every aspect of every production to ensure accuracy and quality; from locations to characters, costumes to Middle East history and culture.

Scripts and Storyboards

Award-winning script-writers, acclaimed artists and thorough research provide the most sure-footed start possible for your film, broadcast or video project.

Location Scouting

Across our region we know every corner better than the locals; in Jordan we discovered the 'Afghan' locations for Al Tareek Ela Khabool; from Morocco to Syria and beyond we'll find what you want, and send you instant digital images and detailed videos.

Translations

ATP is a bilingual production company, we operate in Arabic and English. Beyond the language, we work in both Arab and Western cultural and media traditions and can help to bridge the gaps. We support most languages, including: French, Polish, Russian and Spanish.

Budget Estimating

We know what things cost and what they should cost. We can help you to create realistic, professional budgets for every type of production and show you where you can save money.

Hiring Production Crews

We are uniquely able to work around your existing staff with their strengths and limitations to provide you with the right blend of talent. If you have a great director but no-one to manage the complex location shoots, leave it to us. If you have to produce a 40 minute documentary by next week in your usual 'house-style' and you're still in your office in Europe then contact ATS.

Casting

The ATS actors database includes almost every famous actor in the region and thousands of others; it's a well-proved route to stardom:

• Ghassan Masoud was cast in Ridley Scott's movie 'Kingdom of Heaven’ because "ATP gave me a unique chance to work in such huge international productions"
• Monther Rayahnneh also began with ATP, getting a minor role in 'Sir Al Nowar' as a freshman student, and eventually the lead in the 2007 series Al Ejteyah -- "it is considered one of the biggest productions of the year, this extraordinary series produced by ATP".

Production Planning

this can save you a fortune. ATP's experience over a quarter of a century enables us to produce a final treatment for your production that foresees and allows for future problems; and creates cost-effective scheduling.
