Camera crew for TV Globo at the World Chocolate Masters
TV Globo from Brazil covered the World Chocolate Masters 2026 Grand Final at the Handelsbeurs in Antwerp. One CamJo24 operator ran camera, light and sound for TV Globo reporter Marcelo Elizardo across both days, 26 and 27 October, and filmed material for several Globo stories.
A broadcaster in Brazil. A crew in Antwerp.
The 2026 Grand Final of the World Chocolate Masters, organised by Callebaut, ran at the Handelsbeurs in Antwerp on 26 and 27 October. Weber Shandwick handled press relations and sent the interview schedule to Marcelo Elizardo and to us.
TV Globo works from Brazil, so the coverage in Antwerp needed a crew on the ground. CamJo24 sent one operator to run camera, light and sound for Marcelo Elizardo, who led the interviews. That one-person crew covered the whole event on both days, from the competition floor to the first-floor balcony and the press room, and filmed material for several Globo stories.

Our role
One operator for camera, light and sound, working with reporter Marcelo Elizardo across the whole event
Fixed slots. Three locations.
The press office set the interview times. On Monday that meant Abner Ivan on the competition floor at 10:20, filmed while he worked, then again on the first-floor balcony at 14:00. At five the press room took over, with three interviews in a quarter of an hour.
Tuesday ended with the winner proclamation: Tommaso Grollero of Italy became World Chocolate Master 2026. Amaury Guichon, the Head of Jury, was interviewed on the spot straight after it. Saiko Izawa, the national judge for Brazil, came through Barry Callebaut's Ana Gushiken.
The scheduled slots were only part of the job. The rest of both days went on covering the event for Globo's other stories, with a kit one person could carry: a camera on a tripod, a handheld gimbal rig, LED panels and a wireless lavalier mic for the guest.
