4Th Of July,Drone,Fireworks

An Oakland entrepreneur is taking his small business to new heights and capitalizing on the increasing popularity of drone light shows as an alternative to fireworks displays.

As some communities get ready for big fireworks displays for the July 4th holiday, others are making different plans -- including drone light shows. Inside John Eric Henry's office in Oakland's Jack London Square, he likes to create 3D animations of things flying in the night. 'This is where the magic happens,' said Henry, owner of Pinnacle Drone Light Shows. 'This office used to be called the Holodeck , but now it's called Area 211 in honor of Area 51.
