Production Crew Arrives in Deerfield
Sony and Fox are making a pilot for a potential television series.
Hollywood has invaded Deerfield this week and the result may be local scenes showing up on television in the future.
Production trailers from Sony Pictures and Fox TV were located near Mitchell Park today while a pilot for a potential future television show is being shot at an undisclosed home in Bannockburn, according to Deerfield Park District Executive Assistant Tammy Ingoglia.
A person working on the scene, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Patch today the unnamed pilot is for a drama which may never become a television series nor even aired. Once it is made, executives will determine whether to air the pilot.
Should the company be pleased with the results of the effort once it is aired on television, it could become a series.
As Patch gets updates on the effort, we will keep our readers informed.

Thanks for the catch. We made the correction to unnamed.

How much is Deerfield Park District being reimbursed for the parking? Apparently, Bannockburn said "we don't want your trailers", so they went to Deerfield with the trailers and Bannockburn with the production.

Trailers were on Sunset Lane and it was not a hassle...everyone professional and polite.
Gone now and we're none the worse...come again Hollywood!
