VIDEO: Take an aerial tour over Cincinnati’s center city

University of Cincinnati student, Clay Rasmussen, takes you on a aerial tour of Cincinnati’s center city. The video was produced when Rasmussen was working with Matthew Tyler Ray on another short film project, and had additional aerial footage to produce this unique video.

Clay Rasmussen and Matthew Tyler Ray were producing a short film entitled Coming Attractions, and in the process were able to capture some interesting aerial footage of Cincinnati’s center city. Rasmussen, an Electronic Media student at the University of Cincinnati, says that he is interested in video and film production.

The seven-minute video starts out along the Ohio River in Newport, then circles Cincinnati’s central business district. The small helicopter then returns to the Northern Kentucky riverfront for a landing, but not before capturing some very unique video imagery of the center city.

It is not clear in the information provided as to who operated the small aircraft, but it appears that Rasmussen utilized Stratus HelicoptersAround The City tour, which costs just $45 per adult and last approximately seven minutes.
