Louis is a writer and cinematographer out of Brooklyn.  He worked locally as a teaching assistant making friends outside of class while crewing on student films and independent projects.  During the summer he taught filmmaking to preteens in after-school programs at ICP and SOCAPA.  He then worked at a commercial and visual effects studio The-Artery where he learned the ins-and-outs of client business as a Production Coordinator.

During this time, Louis has remained a steadfast writer of his own projects and cinematographer for other people.  Starting with small monologues and moving onto short films and feature length scripts, Louis produces, shoots, and edits almost all of the work himself.  He also maintains a freelance business of cinematography for other directors and a strong collaborative friendship with his colleagues.

Louis is a passionate and dedicated filmmaker with a sense of heart and sincerity.  He wants to make powerful films that will effect his audience but he also hopes to do it in a manner that leaves them thinking constructively about what they’ve just felt.

"In Now Again I wanted to make a sad story that people could be inspired by."

-Louis Cox
