Creating the Scene

From the costumes to the sets to the eye-popping visual effects, it takes an army of talented people to create Carnivale's fantastic lyrical world. Now, in an online exclusive, HBO online takes you behind the scenes for a look at the inspiration and the execution of four extraordinary scenes.

On an empty highway in the middle of nowhere, two mismatched carnie "families" come together-- and the meeting makes for an unforgettable night. Find out how Carnivale's creators brought the Daily Brothers show-- and its Scorpion Lady, He/She and Praying Mantis-to vibrant life, in the final chapter of Creating the Scene. Exclusively on HBO.com! Broadband connection required!
