API Produces "Seasons of the Harvest" in Nashville Cornfield

API of Memphis recently completed a video for Bellevue Baptist Church which involved a tough scouting dilemma - where to find and secure an unharvested cornfield after the typical harvest season. With obviously blessed guidance, API was able to locate a late crop in the Nashville area with tall green stalks of corn. The major theme of the video drew parallels between agriculture and the church, centering around preparation, planting, cultivation, harvesting and rejoicing - a timely message during the Thanksgiving season. The purpose of the video was to convey the mission of the church - past, present and future in delivering the message of Christ.

The five-part video involved four major locations, location still photography and archival/historical photography. The historical segment stands alone as a music video insert. The cornfield segment, used to portray the "past," was shot and directed by Bill Carrier. Carrier used a series of nets and filters to capture a cinematic look to the Betacam SP. The use of a portajib and dolly complemented the image of the five location cornfield conversations. The eleven minute dialogue was carried well by actor Rob Wilds and child actor Derek Moore, cast by THEATRICS ETC. of Memphis.
