BEHIND THE SCREAMS: KENTUCKY STYLE
When a client calls and says, “Let’s do a branded shoot and we need full photography & video production at an amusement park,” there are only two words to say: buckle up. The Dugud crew hit the road and headed straight into the heart of Kentucky, cameras in tow, to take on a project that promised thrills, spills, and maybe a sweet treat or two.
The location? The one and only Kentucky Kingdom, a local legend packed with roller coasters, prizes galore and the new reveal of Discovery Meadow. The mission? Deliver full-service video production and a suite of still photography that captured not just the attractions—but the electric feeling of being there.
Take a peak behind the scenes (and screams) with Dugud Lab:
From the moment we stepped through the gates, we knew this would be anything but a routine shoot. Kentucky Kingdom doesn’t sit still—and neither could we. Over two days, we covered:
Full production video & still photography for marketing & social
On-ride POV footage & drone cinematography
B-roll of food, games, mascots, and magical mayhem
Our crew quickly learned to balance precision with spontaneity—one moment we were setting up a rig for a hero shot of the main coaster, the next we were chasing their new mascot who had a special gift for our participants. The result was a full-throttle sizzle reel, a collection of hero stills ready for billboards and brochures, and enough b-roll to make even the most serious editor crack a smile.
