Corporate video production can have it’s challenges. One of these challenges is locations as we don’t often get to choose where we shoot. If we’re lucky, we get a scout day or pictures of the location we’re supposed to shoot in or we’ve been there before and already know what we’re walking into. In these…
Studio FiveSix was selected to show our first short film, Andrea, at the Best Dam Short Film Festival in Boulder City. Andrea shows on Feb. 15th in the 8:15pm block of films. We’re very excited to be included and are happy that our premiere showing is going to be in neighboring Boulder City. There was…
Sometimes you just need a little extra power to spice things up in the office. Here at FiveSix Productions, we’ve been running a few different workstations for some time now, a couple mac trashcans from awhile back and a couple newer imac pro machines. But with the new Mac Pro out, we decided our Edit…
At FiveSix we do video productions of all types including corporate storytelling, commercial, reality, social media, political, event, documentary and short narrative films. The last one in that list is fairly new to us and I’d like to chat about how the casting was done in a entirely different manner than our normal process. For…
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. While the Summer League has wrapped up, we’re still excited about having filmed with the reigning MVP of the league. James Harden,…

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. We are no strangers to jet streams and interstates. We travel throughout the year, but late spring and early summer seem to have us gone more…
Canon 5D Mark IV. The Canon 5D Mark IV line of DSLRs from Canon is one of their finest product lines. The newest edition is the 5D Mark IV, and it definitely doesn’t disappoint. Our 5D Mark II was a great camera, and we definitely had some amazing times together, like that one-time lapse we…
Let’s talk about Audio Recording. No, let’s talk about money. I believe RZA and his Wu-Tang Clan said it best in 1994, when they taught us about C.R.E.A.M. Cash rules everything around me- that’s a lesson that applies far beyond the confines of the 36 Chambers of Staten Island. What does this mean here in…
While only a few years old, the High Roller at The Linq has quickly become a very popular attraction for tourists and cameras alike. Whether you’re hitting Sin City for some fun, or, filming a commercial, television show, or the like, the Linq provides excellent views of the world-famous Las Vegas Strip. It’s not just…
