In an effort to give carnival back to the people and spread culture globally! Robert Christopher Riley, Ugenia Stokes, and Hollywood Massive Productions LLC is continuing its efforts which began in Hollywood, California at the 4th Annual LA Culture Festival on June 27th 2015. In the process of editng all the footage and photography that has been compiled since the ocompany's birth in March 2015, we realized a bigger impact could be made than simply participating in another carnival as a celebrity. We discovered that cultural festivals and carnivals all over the world are shining examples of diversity and harmony, acceptance and love, support and community. In every cultural festival (especially Caribbean carnivals) you witness people of every race, creed, color and walk of life, walking, dancing, singing, jumping, smiling, in complete harmony and experiencing utter joy. Our goal is to film a docu-series that covers carnivals and major cultural festival on a global scale, spreads news of these joyous occasions, and the intricately displays the possibilty/example of ture diversity and multi-racial/ethnic love and joy.

This series consists of individual 60 minute episodes, hosted by Robert Christopher Riley and Ugenia Stokes, that visits carnivals and festivals all over the world and throughout North America. Viewing Carnivals and Cultural festivals as distillation of each individual culture, this docu-series' aim is to authentically cover and participate in the celebrations with the purpose of educating viewers about the culture as a whole (food, music, art, history) while dispelling negative myths about the festivals, cities, countries, and people. We will team with governments and tourism boards foreign and domestic, with aims at increasing tourism in these regions, particularly for Carnival seasons. A few highlighted destinations are:

CropOver: Barbados (Aug 2015) ; Caribana: Toronto (Aug 2015); Notting Hill: London (Aug 2015); Labor Day / West Indian Day Parade: Brooklyn (Sept 2015);
Miami Carnival: Miami, FL (Oct 2015); Rio (Feb 2015); Germany (Feb 2015); Italy (Feb 2016); Brazil (Feb 2016); Trinidad and Tobago (Feb 2016)

The pilot episode and film-making process will be filmed and photographed exclusively on RED Digital Cinema, Canon, and DJ-I Phantom cameras and a 60 min episode will be filmed for each individual festival to be shown online or on cable/ broadcast television. The first of which covers Barbados' CropOver 2015.

In addition, in every city/country we will provide 50 or more masqueraders (as many as we possibly can) with costumes and participation in carnival for little to zero cost. Carnivals around the world have become prohibitively expensive and have priced out the average person.  We want to give carnival back to the people and in doing so, as we grow, we will continue to sponsor more and more masqueraders allowing people to truly enjoy the culture and celebrate life as we know it.

Hollywood Massive's tag line is "For the People. For the Culture. For the Love". We humbly ask your assistance in helping us match efforts with corporate sponsors to witness, capture and produce the greatest cultural events ever experienced while spreading those cultures and positivity throughout the world. Making the wolrd a better more cohesive place, one smile at a time. Thanks.
