The studio cyc game in Vegas isn’t the easiest to navigate, especially for out of town productions that don’t know the offerings. Sure, there are some decent places but most are too small for many productions, don’t deliver on amenities or are out of the way and not convenient for talent or crew. That’s all…
Behind the Scenes on local election commercials. Every time an election season nears, our calendars fill up with plenty of campaign commercials. Sometimes it’s someone campaigning for a local, “entry level” position, other times, someone is trying to move into the big-time in D.C. T.V. commercials are one of the most effective ways to get…
FiveSix Productions’ crews hit the beaches from Long Beach to San Diego! Do you know what’s better than having sand literally everywhere on and in your body? Not much, because you must have been on the beach to get that way, and, if you’re on the beach, you’re winning. Down here in Southern California, we catch…

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…
