The Movie Masters public forum with producers, sponsored by the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism’s Film Commission and the University of The Bahamas (UB), will allow accomplished film producers and directors to share their knowledge and experiences with Bahamian filmmakers. The effort is intended to inspire filmmakers to create content and enhance their level of production.
