One weekend. 2.4M organic views from real dance-floor moments.
Croatian Summer already had the atmosphere. The missing piece was a release plan that could keep its best moments visible long after checkout — without making the festival feel manufactured.

The challenge
A packed weekend that disappeared too quickly from the feed.
Dancers kept the memories. The festival needed a way to carry that feeling into the weeks after the final dance.
The response
Capture the weekend once. Release its strongest moments with a plan.
Film the floor, shows and atmosphere; shape them into short-form releases; publish through festival and SDTV channels; keep the best assets ready for the next edition.
From the founder
“A festival's content should do more than prove it happened. We plan what will travel, release it while dancers are still talking, and build a library the next ticket campaign can start from.”
Kirill Korshikov — founder & lead videographer, Social Dance TV
The SDTV release system
Capture once. Keep releasing.
The weekend creates the raw material. A planned release schedule keeps its strongest moments visible while dancers are deciding which festival to book next.
