BLINDED by DELIGHT

Video production

Oh, what it would be like to wake up in a world of happiness... we answer this question in moving images for the legendary Friedrichstadt-Palast. With the animation for the key visual and the show trailer for the Grand Show "BLINDED by DELIGHT", we had to do justice to the most elaborate show that the largest theater stage in the world has ever seen, without being dazzled by the countless Swarovski crystals and gigantic LED screens. Voilà.

The show trailer for "BLINDED by DELIGHT" not only captures the imaginative costumes by star designer Jeremy Scott in a magical way, but also shows the Grand Show in thrilling images and spectacular perspectives that immerse us in the dreamlike world of the Friedrichstadt-Palast two weeks before the premiere.

When the eyes of the show world turn to Berlin every two years in October, we know: The new Grand Show at Friedrichstadt-Palast celebrates its world premiere!

This evening, brimming with glamour, emotion, and electric excitement, featuring nearly 2,000 invited guests from the worlds of politics, culture, media, sports, and society, was further highlighted this year by the appearance of megastar Heidi Klum. It was a special moment that shows what can happen when art, courage, and passion come together—and we had the privilege of capturing it for BLINDED by DELIGHT.
