As we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Bahamas Film Industry, Jefford Curre’ stands at the forefront, in command and setting new challenges.


 As a child he received his early training in motion picture photography under the tutelage of strict, but loving parents. Motion picture and photography was the family’s hobby.Movie going was prohibited by the church, however, his father with the use of slides and sixteen millimeter projection equipment, taught the cinematic arts to the family with the same importance as biblical science. 
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.



From the nerve dangling, pioneering missions of the Royal Bahamas Defence Force, to the unprecedented launch of the Bahamas movie industry, Jefford Curre’s Epic Memoir (the book) is an eye opener, a captivating journey that could challenge almost everything you thought you knew about good and evil.Built heavily on content ripped directly from top secret files, brace yourself for the ride of a lifetime.This epic memoir has best been describedas steamy, stylish, risky and compelling.It stands in a class all by itself and is not even trying to be like anything you’ve read before.

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

Screen writing for the Bahamas Movie Industry

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.
