In partnership with Windish Music & Productions, travel took place to Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, Missouri for the opening weekend of Grand Carnivale — a vibrant celebration of global culture, featuring the sights, sounds, and flavors of India, China, Italy, France, and Germany. The event blends live music, food, crafts, and entertainment, culminating in the Spectacle of Color parade — a dazzling nighttime display of floats, lights, and performers that concludes with the Carnivale Street Party, an immersive finale of international music and celebration.
The project centered on capturing the “Drummers of India” performances, including both their street shows and the grand finale parade. A three-camera setup was used to provide multi-angle coverage of the full performance, alongside additional b-roll from the parade for use in promotional content and an artist documentary featuring performer JaRed Crawford.
Filming focused on the energy, rhythm, and visual artistry of the production — bringing viewers into the heart of the experience while highlighting the skill and spirit of the performers. The resulting film captures the essence of Grand Carnivale: a colorful, musical journey around the world brought to life in the streets of Kansas City.
