LAST NIGHT - Twilight Saga Eclipse Filming Day 4 - Thursday August 20 Overnight

So as I blogged last night I did not go to the set but had two friends @erinbatt and @sarahlj13 who were all over it for me.

Here is the email I got this morning as well as the photos :)

So basically all of these pics kinda suck, and there are non of the cast, as they were directly under the bridge, boo! I contemplated setting the timmer on my camera and dangling it over the bridges edge, but alas, I did not because I didnt wanna interfere with their shots potentially. So instead, I took pretty hot pix of the lighting crew hahaha. Heres how we found the set.

Got a tip to search Kits. After the pedis sarah and I headed that direction and eventually found the "181" arrows.
[See Photos Below] These pointed to the school on Cypress and Cornwell, [Henry Hudson Elementary] it was obvious that this was just a crew park, not even where the circus [hair, make-up etc.} was set up. We thought that since the lights were on in the school maybe they were filming in there... but not the tip we got, and as you [me - Mandy = yay!} pointed out, no "humans" in town just yet... so we kept looking.

There were three cop cars blocking the entrence to the Burrard street bridge, allowing cars to pass occasionally and intermittantly... but otherwise doing nothing... we thought this was odd.
[indeed] It was only about 3 blocks from the crew park. So we checked it out.

As we stopped at the bridge waiting to cross and look more closely, we noticed odd lighting coming up from the bridge and wanted to investigate it. We chatted up one of the police officers. He said, and I quote, "you'll only be stopped here for a moment ladies, they are filming a movie directly under the bridge and we have to stop the traffic as they film." <----- DID HE SERIOUSLY JUST TELL US THAT?!?

hahahaha, so we contemplated giving him a kiss, decided against it, acted ignorant and then headed straight for below the bridge. There were too many barracades set up to get close to the action (or even the circus) from below deck, and we are not fond of hopping barracades... we respect authority and rules ;)
[which is why you're on my team ladies!!!] Thus we turned around and went on top of the bridge on the pedestrian foot path.

Thats what our pics are from. The aerial view of the set. The set cast was Bryce and Xavier. They wrapped shortly after 1am and we left, moderately satisfied ;)


There you have it folks - and here are her photos....



The School where they had the crew/trailor park
