By 1991 Jefford Curre’ saw the vision of a new economic outlook for the Bahamas, and set up his first indigenous movie industry research studio office, in Guanahani village. He placed a giant sign on the front wall that read,“Megavision Pictures”.It was initially the focus of much laughter, for many who could not even imagine locals making and starring in movies so far removed from the Hollywood scene. 

By 1994 with the help of visionary resort operators, he expanded his base on to Paradise Island and officially kick-started the indigenous Bahamian movie making movement. He began the production launch of two flagship projects, “Paradise Intrigue’’(the Bahamas first all Bahamian movie) and “Mystery of the Granny Tales” (the first made for television all Bahamian movie series).As the first to enter the indigenousmovie making game,Jefford Curre’ received overwhelming support from both locals and international organizations.It was hisnew school of thoughttowards the treasures in his own back yard that set him a part and sealed his position in the pages of cinematic history.

Filmmaking tips from the Bahamas Film Industry

Making your film a reality


If money is no object and you are well established you can make any kind of movie on any subject matter and you can do it on any continent.
if you are just starting out, the best way to make your film a reality without spending a lot of money is to:
1. Base it around the things that you already have.
2.The environment you are in
3.The people around you.
For example, don’t try writing a screenplay that has to take place aboard a speeding yacht, unless you own one or can afford to rent or buy one. If you don’t even know a friend who owns one, the film will never happen.
First, visualize your movie inside your head, shot by shot, cut by cut. Draw out those shots on a storyboard. Next, you’ll need equipment, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on a camera. Just ask a friend or someone you know that has a camera, to borrow their own. Some film schools and civic organizations offer year round training that includes equipment. Finally, there’s post-production. When you have finished shooting your movie, you need to find a good processor to develop your film. Sometimes they give discount rates to students or low – budget productions. Lastly, you will need to edit. After it’s changed to video format you can use a video editing system like: Final cut pro or Avid to do your editing.- starsinparadise.com
