Shaka, a Story of Aloha - Luau/Show Final Scene Filming

  • Polynesian Cultural Center 55-370 Kamehameha Highway Laie, HI, 96762 United States (map)

A premiere- style red carpet experience, a world-class luau dinner by Polynesian Cultural Center, a live show themed as a shaka contest, soundtrack sneak-peeks by Henry Kapono … and Shaka swag gift bags.

Native Hawaiian film director Alex Bocchieri, whose first directorial feature, “Go for Broke,” earned rave reviews in 2018, and co-executive producer Bryan Spicer, award-winning producer/director known most recently in Hawaii for his work with “Hawaii Five-0” and “Magnum P.I.,” want to make “the concept of aloha in paradise visual through capturing audience member shakas and reactions,” so concertgoers should be ready to throw down their best shakas if the opportunity arises.

Everyone in attendance will be recorded for the project, “so those not wishing to be recorded should not attend.”

Recording artist Henry Kapono, winner of multiple Na Hoku Hanohano awards, is the film’s musical director.

The documentary is scheduled for release in 2023. For more information, go to projectshaka.com.
