James Harden, the bearded-master of the between the legs crossover – fadeaway. Las Vegas in July means three things: massive 4th of July fireworks shows, inhumane daily temperatures, and the NBA Summer League.

NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. Every July, “The Association” (the National Basketball Association), descends on Las Vegas, Nevada for the NBA Summer League. This eleven-day tournament gives teams the opportunity to evaluate their young players before the regular season begins in the fall. The action doesn’t stop at the Thomas & Mack Center at…
Trekking Through Appalachia, a journey through the American South. While FiveSix Productions’ motley crew call either Las Vegas, Nevada or Long Beach, California home, we certainly love to travel.

Earlier this year, FiveSix Productions teamed up with some of our good friends here in Vegas, to highlight some of the great spots in this wonderful town. One of the best (and most delicious) locations was Carson Kitchen in downtown Las Vegas. Carson Kitchen, if you STILL haven’t found your way there, is a creation…
We definitely felt like kids on Christmas Eve, as we waited for our Tilta Nucleus-M follow focus system to arrive. When it did, oh boy, were we excited! This thing is amazing. The kit includes three motors to drive focus, zoom, and iris; all of which can be daisy chained off the same power source.…
