The Story of Eurovision 2022 🇮🇹 (& the broken stage!)

Allora! Twenty Turin-ty Two saw the sixty-sixth Eurovision - the Porca Vacca edition - go proudly Italian. With an ambitious stage, the biggest props ever seen and some Dutch knowhow, how did they make the show this year?

Correction - the crane cameras were cameras 9 & 10, not 5 & 6 as unfortunately wrongly animated there.

Join me as I take a deep dive into the behind the scenes production of the world’s biggest and longest running TV event in Turin, Italy. Ready, set, Torino!
Fernand’s Live Show Show - the show taking a look at the cool creative production madness happening behind the scenes in live TV.

(Oh - and re the '2 / 22 conspiracy' - I've just realised this was released on the 22nd of June! Coincidence? No, just lots of editing... haha)

A massive special thanks to
- Twan van de Nieuwenhuijzen (Head of Contest - @twanvdn) and
- Dan Shipton (Creative Director for 6 entries - @shiptonite / @blackskullcreative)
for making invaluable appearances in this episode!
