This month, we highlight and honor, Maurice Paramore, in the June 2022 issue of the Love Exquisite Magazine.  Maurice is an award-winning independent filmmaker, screenwriter, and director from New Jersey.  He graduated from William Patterson University in 2006 with a dual degree in Communications and Psychology and used his education combined with his love for the arts to launch his production company, Dream Boy Vision Productions in 2008. Maurice is a creative genius who has written several scripts, which includes his first feature film titled, Freestyle Love (2010), along with six short films, Devil and Red Wine (2012), Poison (2014), Kill Club (2016), Bad Romance (2017), Regrets (2018), and No Honor Among Thieves (2019). In 2019, he released his first web series, The Recession, which was currently picked up by Tubi Tv. 

The dramatic and ruthless web series is comprised of six episodes and has already been likened as a new favorite amongst avid web series viewers and has built a solid fanbase already eager for season two! A true testament of Maurice's talent and ambition is the outpouring of love, support, success, and recognition his projects have garnered throughout the years.  He has definitely perfected his craft and has been a longtime contributing filmmaker to the independent film festival circuit on the East Coast. Maurice's talent has not gone unnoticed, he is the proud recipient of the Best Screenplay, Best Film, Best Director, as well as a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Hang Onto Your Short Film Festival.

While the peer and industry recognition will always be gratifying and humbling, what continues to keep Maurice motivated and fulfilled year after year, he states is, "When I am provided with the opportunity to share the film and script writing knowledge with the younger generation. Opportunities like teaching a film class at the Kiddie Academy or instructing a filmmaking workshop at the Juvenile Medium Security Facility in Bordentown, NJ has led me to start my own film academy, Paramore Film Academy, where I get to share my love of film and possibly spark that same interest in someone else."  Maurice’s body of work continues to get the accolades deserved.  His newest project is the feature film version of Regrets, which has already won four Best Film Awards and has been picked up by Tubi Tv, Comcast/Xfinity, and will be streaming on Peacock TV in this month.  Maurice Paramore is consistently creating and is working on his next feature film, The Devil and Red Wine.  It is our pleasure to Congratulate Maurice Paramore on his achievements!  We honor and feature him in our June 2022 issue of the Love Exquisite Magazine.  Support his film projects and follow him on Instagram @DreamBoyVision.  Congrats Mr. Paramore! Keep Rising King!
