Zucchero «Sugar» Fornaciari

Zucchero «Sugar» Fornaciari's concert for Un'Estate da Re: the energy of the live show, the audience's voices and the monumental courtyard of the Royal Palace of Caserta.

Audiovisual production of Zucchero's concert for Un'Estate da Re at the Royal Palace of Caserta
/ Overview

The project

A major rock-blues concert in a historic setting: the energy of the live show and the emotions of the crowd, to be turned into a story.

Artide handled the full audiovisual production of the concert: live coverage with a language built on the band's energy, and interviews — with the organisers and above all with the audience, before and after the show.

No live broadcast: the material was made to live on after the night — an aftermovie of the concert and formats for the festival's social channels and communication.

In the field, a three-person crew with Sony FX6 cameras, plus drone footage over the monumental courtyard of the Palace.

The challenge

A rock-blues show runs fast: the band doesn't wait, the lights keep changing and the best moments — on stage and in the crowd — happen only once. Three people had to always be in the right place.

The story also wanted real voices: catching the audience before and after the show, in the excitement of the night, and turning those reactions into editable material consistent with the rest.

Frequently asked questions

Do you also cover concerts without going live?
Yes. For Zucchero at Un'Estate da Re the goal wasn't to broadcast but to tell the story: live coverage, audience interviews and an aftermovie that brings the energy of the night to the festival's channels.
Do you interview the audience at events?
Yes, and it's often the most valuable material: on-the-spot reactions before and after the show give the content an authentic voice no stage shot can replace.
What crew does a concert of this scale take?
Here we were three, with Sony FX6 cameras and a drone: light enough to move freely between stage and crowd, covered enough to never miss a key moment.
