THE BRIEF

MY ROLE 

A spectacular televised awards gala featuring 1,000 drones, an 80-foot water screen, fountains, fireworks, and aerial performances. From a floating piano to a submerged stage, sky, water, and fire came together in one extraordinary live production.

Every act, one show: produced every act and performance of the night, from concept through to the live broadcast.
Bringing the vision to life: translated the creative director’s concepts into buildable, broadcast-ready numbers.
Effects coordination: coordinated the drones, aqua drones, water screen, fountains, fireworks, flame projectors and fire effects so every element hit its cue.
Aerial and water staging: planned the crane aerials, the floating piano and the submerged water stage with the technical and safety teams.
On-site at Malta Film Studios: carried the full show from rehearsal to air.
