Our founder, Alan Luster, got his start in the fast-paced world of TV news, where every day was a crash course in speed, storytelling, and staying cool under pressure.

Working in news taught him how to take complex stories and shape them into clear, engaging, fast edits. That same discipline now drives how we work with clients today: with a sharp eye, quick turnaround, and the flexibility to adapt when things shift (as they often do in live production environments).

He went on to work with major brands, lead event video teams, and build 5 Side Productions as a company that combines deep technical skill with thoughtful, people-focused storytelling.

This Is How We Do It

Pre-Production

This is the planning stage and includes coordinating anything and everything, from writing and analyzing the script, planning out your video and choosing the right equipment to scouting the perfect location.

The real action begins here and involves careful and precise execution of the pre-production phase, the actual creation of your video and crucial positioning.

Combining all the parts together is an art in itself. Here we add music, graphics, color correction and a whole lot more to ‘finish’ your unique video.

5 Side was great to work with. Going into interview type sessions can be intimidating. Alan helped lighten the mood during a process that I hadn’t experienced. From the initial conversation to the end product, I felt extremely comfortable as 5 Side kept me in the loop along the way. The process was easy and the quality was above and beyond what I could ask for. I know I will be using Alan and the 5 Side team again.

Alan is awesome! I needed help with a video project for a single shot music video. He gave me several different versions with single shot and multi cam views that all turned out amazing & exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend!!

Working with Alan and 5 Side Productions was a tremendous experience. I never had done a company promo video before and Alan walked myself and my team through the process using incredible technology. When you are taking the video you doubt yourself and mess up but the finished product looks as if you are flawless. Alan was able to capture our complete message and I didn't even need any changes to be made on his first edit. Thank you 5 Side Productions!

Mary Lyn Schuh Mary Lyn Schuh - Executive Director, JDRF
We asked Alan to produce and edit a new video product for our Company's Career Page. Alan provides outstanding service and provides the highest quality video product. He's was knowledgeable and creative during the entire process to the point where we had very few revisions to request. We definitely recommend 5 Side Productions and will partner with them again for our future video production needs.
