Photography and Hyer Specialties Unlimited

Rock The Desert Satge Christopherhyer2013
I have broken out the camera lately to take photos to make some cash, as I wait for a new job to take place. I will be posting some of my new work soon. I am taking pictures of Rock Bands in the area of West Texas when I can get in to the events. I have had some luck with getting some quality shots recently and have sold a few. Therefor my income level is going up , the project in Corpus Christi, Texas is looking bleak right now.

With the high cost of travel and expense this Surfing Video I seek to produce does not look possible this year. I will keep you up to date on this. Take Care. Christopher

Music is My Life

In the Permain Basin, we have had a few good performers come through Wagner Noel Auditorium. I thought I would post a video from Australias, Pink Floyd group that was here earlier this year. I got a real kick of how professional that they presented their work . Very close to the real Pink Floyd. The group has played for over 30 years night after night playing the same songs. I would find this difficult to do in the long term, yet this shows persistance on a few musicians that love what they do . What they accomplish is a fine show that entertains millions of people a year. I hope you enjoy this clip I filmed during this show.

I am working constantly and trying to get the surf film assets up and going , so be aware of this North Padre Island, and Port Aransas,Texas as I have had a few comments from surf shops in the area and at this time, the only way to reach me is by email. I do not want a bunch of crap hitting my cell phone yet.Sponsors will come and when they do they will be presented with a package of what I plan to do with this film. Possibly this is just a local interest , yet the film, will be devoted to include surfing from Laguna Beach in California as well. Comparison surfing and competition from the West coast to the small Islands of the South Texas coast. What a story to be told. It will interest most who are involved in surfing and places to go. I have not decided if I am to include the North Shore of Hawaii, as of yet, the expense would be astronomical, but worth it.

Stay tuned for more on the surfing film and get your hopes up, I think and have proceeded to arrange this event to happen. Christopher Hyer 07/16/2013

Hyer Specialties Unlimited Update July 2013

Well times are a little slow for me right now, and my project for shooting surfing is on hold. It saddens me to say this , but the funds are just not there. I have to work other jobs to get the needed money in order to proceed with "The Wave It Is" I plan to still do this project on surfing in North Padre Island. Just not on my time. There are times in my life when I want to to things I have no control over. This is one of them. I miss the surfing activity and maybe I can get down South , to make this film sooner than I think. I know right now it will not be in July and possibly not even August of 2013.

It will happen , however, I just need to find the financing and interest of other people for this to continue. To do a good job, the cost would be around 100k and this is not happening. At least for right now. If I could make this more than a hobby and a business deal then things could come off differently. I have not been able to get the interest in anyone to complete this project. The expenses are just too high right this moment.

I am still shooting photography and doing animals or pets, to make extra income, and writing my head off to make a living. I have to have another job right now to make ends meet to make this film. I have located a job and it pays well , so I forsee this happening , just don't know when and this is a real pisser. God will let this happen when the time is right and hopefully before I turn 60 years old.lol

I lived my life trying to get this project underway, the music I am still working on my free time with and willl be damn good. So maybe taking this backwards and getting the sound track done is the best way I can possibly do this film. I still want to do this in 3 D Technology and I will. When is the other question. Maybe I can get some of these Oil Giants in Midland, Texas to help me finance this job. There are avenues I have not tried yet. So stick with the idea of this becoming a reality. Until next time , have a good one, and I will not give in or up on this project. Christopher Hyer 07/15/2013

The "Wave It Is" Film

The "Wave it Is" will be put off for a bit while I try to drum up more money in order to finance this mission for North Padre Island , Texas. The money is just not there, and promotion is not started as of today. Please stay tuned to this blog for further updates. The intial plan was to use an Epic Red Camera to shoot this surfing video, this camera was used for the "Hobbit" it runs around 30 thousand dolars and rentla is about 675 per day. So I wil have to scrap this idea of 3 D production, and possibly go 2D with HD 1080 ip , and that would still be fine. I want to have the best camera to do the job with, so the project is still to happen, just not with the expected equipment.

God willing the money from people that are interested in this idea will start to plow in and I will be able to finance this film. Right now 5k is all I have so , this is not enough. I am expecting this film to cost about 30k to do it just right. That is very low budget. To get this amount I need more interest from companies or sponsors. Email me with your donation and maybe I can get this film underway. chyer47@gmail.com ...Thank You 06/21/2013

Surfing Music For Upcoming Film, Padrenorth2013

christopherhyer2008
Well, I have been working on cutting tracks in my home studio for the upcoming film to be shot in North Padre Island, and I believe I will do all tracks on the film. It has come to my attention that a donation of 5k for this project will be coming in from an unknown source. That will make this possible for partial production and equipment. I have not had time to figure out the initial cost of everything as of today. I will be working on this soon. I am predicting a 20k budget , yet have not discussed this with the production facility in Dallas I am to use. Low production , but for a film about the North Padre Island and Port Aransas, Texas area, is substantial, and I can make it last. Again if your interested in getting involved in my project email me at chyer47@gmail.com residual payments will be made after the film goes to market.

Quite possibly this is going to really happen.I am excited to have the opportunity to do this film and in HD 3D will be a hoot. Featuring interviews from local residents about the surfing and the rival groups from both parts of North Padre Island, Texas. It is like football is out in West Texas. Friday Night Lights was shot about Permian Football in neighboring Odessa, Texas. That was a Hollywood production and believe me if I had the backing I would do the same with this Island. There is a good story to be told, and it will be a family friendly film.

More in the coming days on whats up. The good is I am up 5 grand and that helps, Thank You...Christopher Hyer
