Kurt Sutter at NAB, full Sons of Anarchy panel discussion (VIDEOS)

NAB hosted FX's hit series "Sons of Anarchy" as the showrunner Kurt Sutter and some members of his production team were there to discuss the show for 90,000+ attendees of the annual Industry event.
Kurt Sutter spoke plainly about the series' genesis and inside details on a panel titled "Sons of Anarchy: Grit and Texture in Small Town America."
Sutter, along with the show's director of photography, Paul Maibaum, and production designer, Anthony Medina, shared their creative vision and techniques they use to tell larger-than-life stories through the lens of an outlaw biker's club and the corrupt town they inhabit.
The panel was assembled at the NAB Show Content Theater, located in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, on Tuesday, April 12.
Sons of Anarchy stars Charlie Hunnam, Kim Coates, Ryan Hurst, Ron Perlman, William Lucking, Dayton Callie, Maggie Siff, Theo Rossi, Michael Marisi Ornstein, Winter Ave Zoli, Tommy Flanagan, Mark Boone Junior, Mitch Pileggi, Kurt Sutter (who plays Otto, a member of SAMCRO) and recent Golden Globe Award-winner Katey Sagal.
A perfectly cast ensemble machine, underscored with wickedly funny dark humor. Sutter weaves tales of Charming, California's SAMCRO, an outlaw motorcycle club (MC).
