DGTL & BUD present: The Crew | Meet the artist handler

The chaos, the sweat, the pulse—none of it happens by accident. In this three-part series, we dive into the relentless energy and raw passion that fuel festivals. These are the unsung heroes—the force driving everything behind the scenes, turning vision into reality with sheer grit, determination and devotion. Backstage mayhem, meet your calm in the storm.

The first episode uncovers the relentless hustle of the artist handler—the backbone of every jaw-dropping performance. When the pressure peaks, they’re the ones who keep the wheels turning, pushing through without missing a step. They pour their heart into every detail, so you can lose yourself in the moment.

DGTL & BUD present: The Crew | Meet the photographer

Episode 2 follows the photographer, capturing moments from the heart of the festival. Their role may seem simple at first—point and click—but as we uncover, it's much more than that. In the world of massive music events, moments come and go in the blink of an eye. Yet the photographer is there to freeze those moments, transforming chaos into immortalized art. It’s not just about taking pictures; it's about capturing the energy, emotion, and pure spirit of the night.

Every snap tells a story—the exhilaration of the crowd, the intensity of the performers, and the raw, high-energy connections that electrifies the air. The photographer’s job isn’t easy. From battling the thick crowds to catching fleeting moments of brilliance, they thrive in the heart of the chaos. The energy is relentless, but through their lens, we see the soul of the event. Behind every shot is a person who understands the importance of timing, precision, and passion—capturing not just images, but the essence of DGTL itself.
