Shilo Music Video Shoot
A few weeks ago I spent the weekend helping out on a new music video for the country band “Shilo”.
We started Saturday morning in the small town of Topeka Indiana. Topeka is about 45 minutes northwest of Ft.Wayne, deep in the heart of Amish country. The location was the Topeka Pharmacy, which is pretty much a general store… doubling for a old style Five and Dime.
The main characters of the video where portrayed by
Alicia Hedlund, Travis Gow, and Chris Breidinger.

Which brings us to the title of the song…
“Dodg’n a Ford (in my Chevrolet)”
Here’s Travis’ Chevrolet…
and here’s the Ford he’s Dodg’n…(along with Nate Savidge catching some cool footage)
We had a blast shooting the chase footage. Stunt Supervisor Jim Dougherty organized the chase scene while Director Kate Chaplin oversaw the rest of the shoot.

On Sunday we shot the band footage. These guys were great… they put up with all of the hurry-up and wait that comes with any shoot, without any complaints. As a film crew we’re used to this kind of thing taking way longer than anyone would ever guess. These guys were pros!
We were also joined by still photographer
Polina Osherov
. Who took some incredible shots of the band and crew. These are not her photos… but here’s a photo of her…which you won’t find in her shots!

It was a long hot weekend but lots of fun and hard work.
The video is now in the hands of the producers awaiting approval of the edit.
I’ll be sure to do an update when it’s available.
