When PDS took on the challenge of lighting Haunted Fest at the St. Pete Pier, they prioritized an immersive atmosphere that could match the high-octane energy of its world-class headliners. To ensure the execution was as sharp as the design, PDS brought in Kam to lead the charge as the lighting director and operator.
Tasked with translating the spooky, supernatural theme of the St. Petersburg festival into a visual reality, Kam masterfully navigated the dualities of the weekend’s top acts. For Disclosure’s opening night DJ set, the rig leaned into rhythmic, house-centric pulses, while Saturday’s "Nightmare on REZZ Street" saw Kam utilizing the full power of the PDS-designed system to deliver the heavy, hypnotic bass-scapes and signature dark visuals that Rezz is known for. The collaboration resulted in a hauntingly beautiful production that transformed the waterfront venue into a premier Halloween EDM destination.
