Film Production and Scenic Artwork

Simonette began working in the film industry in 2012. Notable film credits include: Co-Producer, UPM, and Production Designer on City of a Million Dreams: Parading for the Dead in New Orleans,  Sculptor on Capone (2020), a Scenic Artist on Underwater (2020), Scenic Artist on Claws: Season 2 (2018), Scenic Artist on Logan (2017), Sculptor/Moldmaker on Geostorm (2017), Scenic Artist on Roots (2016), Sculptor, Moldmaker, and Scenic Artist on Terminator: Genisys (2015),  Lead Sculptor on Into the Badlands: Season 1 (2015), Sculptor/Moldmaker on Maze Runner (2014), Sculptor on Salem: Seasons 1 and 3 (2014-17), Leadman and featured artist on Chef (2014), Production Designer and Scenic Artist on Bayou Tales (in post production), and others. Her company, Scenic Art and Casting Studio, has also created props and set pieces for film, theater, and events. 

For the past five years, she's been working on a documentary about the history of jazz funerals in New Orleans, City of a Million Dreams: Parading for the Dead in New Orleans.  Part of this documentary production included a full historical reenactment of the dances in Congo Square in the 18th and 19th century, something that's never been done before and required a team of research consultants, a talented art department  and costume design team, and a crew of dancers and musicians to create. The documentary is now in post-production; find out more here: www.cityofamilliondreams.com.
