Behind the Sword Production Begins


Christie made a new friend - Patrick - as she featured the Easter market of Innsbruck.

On Friday we began production of Christie's European show - BEHIND THE SWORD - which will offer a behind the scenes look at both playing American Football in Europe and in all the interesting aspects of the Tirolean region.  The show will be modeled after a similar show, Behind the Shield, which is on our partner club the Oakland Raiders of the NFL.  In fact, Christie's show will air both on the Oakland website and of course here in Austria. 

Thumbs up from Plattner Tom, who is helping us out on the show.

For the first show, we are putting together a piece on the history of the Swarco Raiders, a recap of the first few games, a look at the Old Town of Innsbruck during Easter, and an interview with Raiders Defensive Lineman Gonzalo Segovia.  It was fun dusting off the camera and putting our "work" hats back on in the field of production.  Our goal will also be to have some fun with this - so if you have any crazy story ideas be sure to shoot them our way! 

Christie doin' her thang under the Golden Roof.

In-depth interviews will reveal the history of the Raiders club.

You will be able to catch the first episode of BEHIND THE SWORD online at both raiders.com (Oakland Raiders) and raiders.at (Swarco Raiders Tirol) sometime next week.  Stay tuned!
