Filmmaker Spotlight: Mike Vogel

Oh the Places You Will Go to Film by Bike

(A poetic interpretation of one man’s adventures in filming and biking: about filmmaker Mike Vogel)


Meet Mike

     Who likes to film by bike.

But we ask would he dare

     Film by bike anywhere?


Would he film on a crane?

     Could he film in the rain?


I would film on a crane

     I would film in the rain.

I would film here or there,

     I would film anywhere.


Would he film in a pick-up truck,

     All the way to Lady Luck?

Where he and his crew,

     Could get a shot of my tattoo?


Yes in a truck, to Lady Luck

I would go, to prove it so.

That I would film here or there,

     I would film anywhere.


I bet he wouldn’t on Hawthorne Bridge,

     It’s vertically filming on a ridge.


Shy away from the bridge, I would not

     If it meant getting the perfect shot.

I would film here or there,

     I would film anywhere.


He wouldn’t, he couldn’t if it were against the law.


I would and could if I thought no one saw.

I would film here or there,

     I would film anywhere.


I guess it’s true, I guess it’s so

     There is not a place Mike wouldn’t go.

So the question remains, the places you will go

     In order to be in the Filmed By Bike Show.
