History of the Bahamas Film Industry timeline update

Starsinparadise.com 

invites you to participate in the Bahamas Film Industry timeline update. 

 What is the Bahamas Film Industry timeline update?

The Bahamas Film Industry timeline update is an online information gathering process. It is open to the public to provide documented information on the accomplishments of Bahamians who rose to fame as a pioneer in the Bahamas Film Industry or as a contributor to the American Film Industry. 

Many Bahamian pioneers in the film industry have been lost in time, others overlooked by the establishments of the past or simply had their importance ignored because of race, color, religious belief, social status, political affiliation, sexual view point or life management philosophy. As a result many are missing from the pages of conventional records.  In continued celebration of the 20^th anniversary of the Bahamas Film Industry, we are launching into the future by honoring the accomplishments of those that came before us, as well as the unsung heroes still among us.

If you know anyone who qualifies to be honored in the new official update of the Bahamas Film Industry timeline 
now in progress,  please recommend them by providing us with a brief documented account of their story in the comment section of starsinparadise.com.

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.

Action hero of the Bahamas Film Industry tells incredible but well documented story.

Jefford Curre' stands tall

like a real life action hero. 

Forging a high level of 

sophistication and style, as he 

empowers the strategic advancement of

the Bahamas Film Industry.

He continues to inspire an army of
Bahamian filmmakers with boldness
and creative innovation, but very little is known about the jet-setting indigenous power broker.
Well that's all about to change as
the Bahamas leading man of action
has finally inked the release agreement for the full disclosure version of his epic memoir.

It has been six years and five rejected versions of the book's manuscript before reaching a settlement with his Comasuki partners. The main issue that led to the delay was due to the fact that
Curre' is a Bahamian, a peculiar
bunch, that strives on privacy and
takes no pleasure in revealing personal,
or even worst steamy details.

There's a good chance you might be
tempted to change almost everything
you thought you knew about
this elusive man of action.
"Jefford Curre" book release

What's your place in the Bahamas new number one industry?

What's your place in the Bahamas movie industry?

Stars In Paradise would like to know.

In 1994, Stars In Paradise magazine made its local debut among the   extensive press corp. that covered the courageous launch of Megavision Pictures series of opening events, under the creative direction of Jefford Curre'. This historical moment was the highlight of the Bahamas Chamber of Commerce week and provided a portal to the next step in the Bahamas' economic development.

Since that small beginning, Stars In Paradise has grown steadily with the Bahamas Film Industry and has become the most trusted source for Bahamas cinema trade information. Stars In Paradise is the Bahamas' official film industry magazine. Count on us to be there, highlighting the people on the cutting edge of the Bahamas Film Industry.

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.
