Jefford Curre’ and the birth of the Bahamas movie industry


How It All Began 

The call of an ingenious visionary to lead the forefront of a new era in cinema history, now known as the Bahamas movie industry.

 












Once upon a time, in a land not too far away called the Bahamas, there lived a little boy named Jefford Curre’.   One day while out to the shopping center with his mother, he was intrigued by how much fun the little people were having inside the store T V set.  Without  hesitation he made his way to the back of the TV, to see if he could get inside.  As he inquired about the little people, his mother explained that they were movie stars.  His family was a part of a strict religious order and she wasted no time expounding that movie stars don’t go to Heaven.  Missing out on a little milk and honey did not exactly concern Jefford, because the family’s refrigerator always had a great supply of milk.  However, when his mother elaborated about the hell fire and brimstone, it almost scared the living day lights out of him.  Jefford’s desire to be in the movies never left, but all desire to qualify himself as a movie star was no longer a burning issue.  In his child like mind, he devised the perfect plan.  He won’t be a movie star, he would just be a guy in the movies, pretending to be a movie star.  Later on, as time went by, his parents had modernized their views on the world of movie making.   


In 1990, Jefford Curre’ decided to follow up on an earlier vision that was downloaded to him on the necessity to kick-start an indigenous movie industry in the Bahamas.  He requested his parents to grant him advance access to his share of the inherited family property, in order to use as collateral for a bank loan.  While most of his peers were busy using their money to stay in the latest fashion, updated motor vehicles or build houses, Jefford Curre’s focus remained with a great degree of concern on the nerve dangling fact that his homeland was almost solely depending on tourism.  He thought the nation was a sitting duck for an economic crisis,  with little or no new industry of global proportion in sight.   It did not look good, but it was obviously an issue few wanted to acknowledge as a potential problem.  Driven by a sense of mission and destiny, Jefford Curre’ decided that it was time to take action to develop a solution, to buffer potential future crisis.

Young filmmakers move up faster at Bahamas film industry


Tips for up and coming filmmakers in the Bahamas or anywhere else.






 Bahamasfilmindustry.com is making it easy for start ups to move ahead quickly,  by pushing the limits of qualifications, accountability and credentials. Believe it or not you can get some meaningful movie experience just by watching a variety of different movies and paying close attention to things like lighting, the angles of shots, the type of music for certain scenes etc... . However, just watching movies won’t complete the package, find someone who is making movies consistently and talk your way onto the team, even if you have to start as a production assistant standing by to take care of small chores that pop up throughout the day.  Even this could be a tough position to get into, but if you offer to work just for experience or deferred payment, more than likely you will beat out the competition.   You could end up in a position which will ultimately lead to making money. 

You can also utilize your local bookstore or library and read a book about film making, find one that can teach you all the technical things you need to know about film making. This Fall the megavisionkingdom.com will offer a wide range of opportunities for young movie makers that really mean business. They won't be free, then again nothing worthwhile ever is.- starsinparadise.com

Positioning yourself for Bahamas movie money



Whether you’re an international money launderer posing as a banker, or a relative of pirates who went legit at the turn of the  century, you already know about  the buried treasure that still lies yet undiscovered in, the Bahamas 








Whether you’re an international money launderer posing as a banker, or a relative of pirates who went legit at the turn of the  century, you already know about  the buried treasure that still lies yet undiscovered in, the Bahamas 






Countless sad stories of weak filmmakers who regrettably sold their integrity and allowed themselves to be manipulated by people just to get some money.


Megavisionkingdom.com the in-house training division of Megavision Pictures runs a very interesting program that teaches filmmakers, not only how to make films, but more importantly, how to attract money without losing their own identity.  If the filmmaker loses identity and integrity, he has nothing different to offer his starving audience.  When this happens he is no longer unique and his days are numbered.

 Filmmakers, practically, in the new emerging global Bahamas film market, might find it not a bad idea to establish their position before forming close working relationships with foreign entities.  In other words you must establish a structure that identifies you and demonstrate internal accountability.  This is important for some very good reasons.

 Make no mistake about it, whoever you ask for money will proposition you with a list of conditions.  The key is to find the company that echoes the sentiments that you stand for. For example, if your films or film festival is about spreading democracy, don’t expect the grant organization that believes in dictatorship to fund you.  You will have to change your mind about the governing process and demonstrate that change vividly before you can get the money. 


How many times have you seen filmmakers or film festival operators start out with good intentions about producing movies that encourage good will among all mankind.  Very often we realize after a year or so, their press release starts selling them as an extremist in either race,  creed, color or religion.  This happens because real structure and accountability was missing at the beginning.  There was no clear mission of conviction.

Screen writing for the Bahamas Movie Industry wins big.


                          JEFFORD CURRE'
                                                                                     headlines the                            
BOX-OFFICE SUPERSTAR SUMMIT
     Winter season tour 
     gets high poll ratings
     as writers benefit from     
     movie development deals



 










Heavily inspired by the success of box-office superstar,  Jefford Curre', the inventor of the Bahamas Film Industry, new writers want to make their dreams come true.   Whether they are in the Bahamas, San Francisco or Japan, they want to make this happen with their names still on the writing credits on opening night.   It's a wishful desire, but  few may have  the spiritual fortitude or industry connections to lead a convincing Hollywood battle.  Writers want the ultimate recognition  and career launch,  that could derive from just one of their creative works.   Keeping your name in the game,  is the name of the game, however it is an extremely difficult thing to accomplish in today's box-office world, driven by name power.  Labels with contractual obligations of  a well stacked established writers roster, will always find it a better business decision to ignore  the risky new comer.  In the eyes of fast dividend seeking investors, an unknown writer  would find it an easier task to locate a needle in a hay stack, than  to expect priority consideration.  So how exactly does a new writer get his/her name in lights?  Well actually they don’t.

Actually that is not entirely true. The really creative unsigned writer can always figure out a way to use a search light or a candle to illuminate his/her name on the final draft.   He/she can accomplish this best while  sitting  in a dark apartment with no electricity, but other than that, there have been very few options, if any.  Before you start laughing at the poor little writing people, let us finish. Stars In Paradise have learned through the grape vines of Hollywood, that getting to keep your name on a manuscript is not just a poor unknown or unpublished writers problem. We have found out that even the established season unknown writers with money, family clout, government connections and beautiful faces can't break this almost impenetrable industry fraternity code.  Lets try to remain positive and industrially honest when it comes to the success of screenplay manuscripts or books, it's all about who wrote it, not what it's about or how well it's written.  

 Is there a 21st. century solution to this age old problem?   Keep up with Stars In Paradise magazine at starsinparadise.com.   We will bring you the latest patented innovations that were unveiled by Jefford Curre' at the 2012 Winter Season presentations of the  Box-office Superstar Summit Tour.

Jefford Curre'. At the core of the Bahamas Film Industry.

Jefford Curre'.
Could he be among the few
positioned well enough
to take the Bahamas
movie industry to the
next level?








With all odds stacked against him, he started his journey as a shy, nerdy, skinny kid, living on a dead end street on the 7 by 21 mile island of New Providence in the Bahamas. Challenging times, hard work, bee stings and fierce discipline, has no doubt played a major role in Jefford Curre’s evolution into a world class, award winning talent. With a whole lot of help, he is successfully rewriting the rules of box-office super-stardom.
To some, he’s a jet setting playboy with a “Midas” touch, to others, he’s a trusted spiritual leader. Whatever your conclusion may be, one thing remains clear and without contest, Jefford Curre’ is more than just a leader, he is an artist beyond compare, and a powerful inspiration to anyone who struggles to make impossible dreams come true.


Follow the path and find out why they call him the Bahamas' leading man of action.

Jefford Curre', coming this March on starsinparadise.com.

First round of development deals for movie-makers will be announced at Bahamas Film Industry press conference.


How did JEFFORD CURRE' Paradise Intrigue
benefit from Megavision Pictures development start-up deal?






















While most artists require a major PR campaign and millions of dollars each year to keep their career alive, for some strange reason, it seems that Jefford Curre’ is getting away with a whole lot less. According to a Megavision Pictures filed report issued in 2004, he’s not really getting away at all. He has paid his dues in personal sacrifices beyond your wildest dreams, and has clearly earned a right to succeed without compromise or apology. In the beginning Megavision Pictures spent an insane amount of money establishing his "key man" position. Apparently, they had little or no doubts about his ability to make it this far.

Today, he’s riding mostly on momentum, as the Bahamas indigenous movie industry approaches a whole new exciting phase. Jefford Curre’ is considered by many to be one of, if not the most influential figure in the game. The achievements of his near impossible missions have established him as a serious force to be reckoned with. But according to those that make up the core of his entourage, Jefford Curre’ is far from serious. He’s responsible, yes, but definitely not serious.

Coming in March 2013 Stars In Paradise magazine will have the first run exclusive access behind the scene and into the jet-setting lifestyle of the Bahamas leading man of action. It will be his first interview since the Wall Street Journal featured him in the article ''The Networking Game''. Keep up with Stars In Paradise daily, it's about to get hot. starsinparadise.com

Oh, we almost forgot Megavision Pictures has announced the projects that has made it into its first round of development for 2013. Stars In Paradise will be giving you the update daily as it unfold.
