First inspired by the character 'Animal' on Lou Grant, and later on, fine art photographer, Peter Lik, professional photographer Louis Halcyon Simmons first picked up the camera at age 6. From then his eye developed into something amazing with his everlasting visuals that capture life, both past and present. Louis Simmons’ adventure into both photography and aerial cinematography stemmed from his background in production. While in Los Angeles, Louis’ intentions to pitch his high def motion picture idea called for another means of advertising. After researching various media sources, Louis landed with stock footage agency, Footagebank.com, immediately after graduating film school at The Los Angeles Film School. Along with his many talents, Louis developed a smooth jazz internet radio station called Smooth Jazz Beach Radio, hoping to serve as an advertising medium for his television pilot AERIAL, allowed Louis to discover new and extraordinary ideas for his stock footage library including cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas and soon Seattle. Perhaps the biggest focus of professional photographer / aerial cinematographer is introducing new images to the world.

“My passion comes from the heart, as I love to share images and visuals with the world,” explains Louis. “It is an exciting feeling when you are able to introduce yourself to the public and have them immediately vision your dreams.” Along with running his online radio station, Louis has plenty on his plate to keep him busy. Being a professional aerial cinematographer, Louis often finds himself in different parts of the country, pairing music and aerial footage together, creating whole new entities. His movie pilot, AERIAL, is set to be released sometime next year including Seattle, San Francisco, Las Veagas and Los Angeles. While holding down these two projects, Louis also has plans to launch yet another project with his aerial footage called, 'Murals by Halcyon' by using single framed high definition images and transferring them to life size murals for corporate lobbies.

RISKS AND CHALLENGES  

The risks and challenges that comes with this project entail not necessarily transferring the already shot aerial footage from hd tape into digital format but more the actual finding of the music scores. We are actually looking at producing a soundtrack using new indie artists open to any genre. Once we have discovered the artists that we like it then a matter of scoring the music with the film. One of the other challenges is keeping the attention of the audience with over 8 minutes of aerial footage to new and upcoming artists. This short will be put into the film festivals starting in early February of 2013. One of the successes of this project is to see if we are able to attract more inquiries and ideas for our aerial stock footage library.
