Robert Jax, Cinematographer, Editor
Robert is a 15 year veteran of the film and video industry. Over his career, he has produced over 80 episodes of original programming and oversaw the post production of another 200 shows. He spent his early career as a sports videographer documenting the Southern California High sports scene. He soon took his talents to a Creative Agency and in no time became the senior editor for the facility. After a few years of editing commercials and corporate image pieces, he progressed to an emerging market in Las Vegas. Known for his creative style and his ability to meet tight deadlines, Robert has grown FiveSix Productions into a premier production facility in Las Vegas.
"When Markus approached me about producing a documentary on shapers, it was a no brainer for me. Growing up by the water in Seal Beach, Ca., and with my history of filming sports I jumped at the opportunity to work with Markus and Robert Bell to tell these stories."
