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

Beyond festivals, Film Financing In the Bahamas Film Industry



Continuing the conversation on "Positioning Yourself For Money" from January 30th 2013. Focusing on the importance of trust and mentor-ship in the Bahamas movie and television industry.

Now lets continue on. Covenant partners mentor-ship is an ancient bonding technique used to guarantee generation success. It’s more like an insurance program bonded by spiritual connection or a sincerely deep level of commitment. It has been said that to enter and pull out of such a bond, brings a curse on the life of the faint-hearted, and to stay faithful to the covenant, brings enormous prosperity. Well that is what they say, but each of us in the entertainment business can decide whether to believe it or not.

Stars In Paradise would like to point out that studio executives are approached every day and at any given time, by highly qualified people, with a variety of propositions and proposals. Being highly qualified sometimes has its drawbacks, especially when the executives are in the market for teachable individuals who can execute new innovations. Being qualified and set in the ways of previous training sometimes don't fit the demands. This is because qualification usually comes with an attitude that says "I know what to do, let me do this thing better, give me the job and back off until pay day". Sometimes it is quite true that the individual may have a lot to offer, but if your attitude lacks humility and show clear signs that you are not teachable when it comes to another way of achieving the same thing, you won’t get in.

There is very little an individual can do to change qualifications earned over long years of study and hard work, but there is a lot one can do to change an attitude that’s slowing them down. First, you must put yourself in the other person’s shoe. If an individual has built an interesting empire, they have done it by doing things a certain way. It has worked for them and has helped them progress consistently. Asking them to adapt to your way, which is yet to be proven beneficial is .......to be continued... - starsinparadise.com

If you missed the opportunity to train at the Megavision Kingdom, there may still be hope for you. Stars In Paradise would like to share a few tips to get you started.

Pick a subject you know well. If you don’t know how to write, then that’s okay, you can just start writing your first draft the way you write, to get the story out of your head and onto paper, but it’s a good idea to take some writing classes so you can learn the standard format, so your script will make sense to others in the industry. The important thing is just to get started and push hard to a finish. - starsinparadise.com
