Fat Mark Creating a Lane For the North Bay Area

Fat Mark
Back in 2012, "Yay Area's Finest" was popular in the Bay Area for their highlight tapes of the top high school players in the Bay Area. They even had an all-star game amongst the top players in the Bay Area. In that all-star game, Tajai Johnson, Larry Wickett, and Rodney Cook, represented Vallejo and the northern part of the Bay Area. Since then, the Northern Bay Area which features Vallejo, Napa, Benicia, Fairfield, Vacaville and more, hasn't had too much spotlight on their players. Some believe the talent hasn't been the same, others believe the talent has been slept on compared to the other cities around the Bay Area. Today, Mark "Fat Mark" Insixiengmay has been able to provide the North Bay Area some attention due to his film production.

Fat Mark started off recording his two son's (Damien and Demarcus) basketball games with his phone, while using apps to edit the photos and videos. After experiencing a love for filming, he decided to take it serious, and film with professional level cameras. After filming several videos of his sons, Team Rampage Varsity Head Coach Brandon Bracy decided to bring Fat Mark on to record his workouts for "Bracy's Skills Clinics". Over a 2/3 month span, Fat Mark's buzz with filming for Coach Bracy had grown and spilled into the high school basketball season.

Fat Mark went on to film Solano County's top talent including players Trey Pugh, Dakkari Hughes, Vandell Shaw and more. By creating highlight tapes and action photos of them, he would then go on to do team highlight tapes on Vanden, American Canyon, St. Pats, and even Salesian. Coach Bracy expressed Fat Mark's talent by stating, "Mark loves what he does, and has the work ethic to become much bigger than what he is right now. His buzz has continued to grow, and all of the kids ask for him to come film their games".

Fat Mark will also be filming for Team Rampage this upcoming AAU season, to create an even bigger buzz for the North Bay. For Highlight tapes or action photos, contact Fat Mark at (925) 567-4273.
