Future Stars of Wrestling / FSW

Posted by Chris Paniagua

I spent a Sunday afternoon as the official videographer for the inaugural performance of the new “Future Stars of Wrestling” federation. I was expecting mostly some Lucha Libre mexican masked wrestling. I was surprised to see the event was sold out and standing room only. I was also surprised by how much fun I had producing and filming the event. I am by no means a fan of wrestling entertainment, but it was very entertaining. There were even a couple stars of the ECW/WWE small shows. The event took place at the Rancho Swap Meet, in the back room (which had no air-conditioning). The event was a success, and now they are working on the next event, sponsors, bigger room, etc. The next event will be next month in July, and the A/C will be on :) Below you will find the 4 minute “trailer” I shot and edited for them. This is the piece they will be using to get those sponsors, bigger rooms, etc. The trailer was cut to the song “Ladies & Gentlemen” by Saliva. the song is a bit slow for my taste, but it did provide good cues to match the audio & video. The main trick was to line up all the vocal “BOOM”s with hard hits and bodyslams :) Next I am working on a 30 sec commercial… Anyway – enjoy :)

Some of the performers involved were:

  • Kid Showtime
  • Tommy Danja
  • Fenix Alexander
  • Big Unit
  • Funny Bone
