LOS ANGELES—Chaos Visual Productions, formed in Dec 2008 byJohn J. Wiseman, Chris Kaman and Chuck Burtzloff has announced the 100%acquisition of Los Angeles based CW Productions (CWP).
CWP was founded in 1989 by Chris and Sheila Wickman as a show production rental house. CWP quickly grew to be a leading company for specialty lighting, video, projection, and show programming execution. CWP is headed up by Marty Wickman and Fred Waldman who will remain in place running the day-to-day of CWP. CHAOS Visual will run operations out of the same physical plant and add further visual production to the CWP arsenal. The two (CWP and Chaos Visual) will merge over the next 12 months.
“CWP is a great company ready to grow to the next level and our intent is to enhance and empower their management,” comments Wiseman. “CHAOS will bring skills and finance that will free up Marty and Fred to do what they do best, which is customer service with a unique ability to deliver the designers vision within a budget.”
