Covering all stages of production, JAFF Future Project seeks out fresh feature film projects, ranging from low-budget independent films to large-scale commercial productions.

The JAFF Content Market is a content marketplace ranging from Intellectual Property (IP) such as books, songs, video games, and even scientific works, to find the possibility of being adapted into a film.
