SPECIAL BONUS FOR YOUTUBE CONTENT CREATORS WITH OVER 10 MINUTE VIDEOS FOR THIS POST ONLY! - I will allow 10 (Ten) photos this time, instead of the usual 6, because of the sheer amount of content. All other rules still apply. Now that parts 1 through 3 of the massive Crisis On Infinite Earths cross over has been aired. It is time to post a bunch more photos from the sets I visited. You can of course still find the original sets in the links posted throughout this mega-post, or at the bottom of the page, along with all the sets from the episodes not yet aired. I am going to post these sets in the order you may have seen them in on your screen during Crisis. So first up, the moment when Audrey Marie Anderson as Lyla Michaels aka Harbinger recruits Grant Gustin as Barry Allen aka The Flash. The link to this scene, and more from this days shoot will be further down, as it was part 2 of that days shoot. The second part is the scene where Harbinger goes to Gotham City to recruit Ruby Rose as Kate Kane aka Batwoman. This blog post also contains a few shots of Burt Ward on set for his cameo. AS WELL, it contains a spoiler for the Legends episode in the write up in the blog post. SO be warned now. If you choose to read it & dont just look at the photos. No spoilers in the photos. You can find that post HERE There was a scene shot in David Lam Park with several Supergirl cast on set doing the scene where we see people getting escorted to the large alien ships to leave Earth 38. In the scene was Nicole Maines as Nia Nal aka Dreamer, Katie McGrath as Lena Luthor, Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers as Azie Tesfai as Kelly Olsen. You can see more photos from this scene (as well as the Flash & Harbinger scene above) in this post HERE There was then the scenes from the Supergirl episode where we see several of the heroes scattered around a couple places at an area called Plaza Of Nations. First up is a set of photos from the shoot they did right in the middle of the Plaza Of Nations. To be honest, I expected this scene to be like 10-20 seconds longer when it appeared, considering this took up more than half a day of their filming. There was also some shots of them filming on top of 1 buildings there that I shot first at this location, but I am posting these in chronological order of the episode airing them, soooo.. For this shoot they had The Flash & Batwoman, along with Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen aka The Green Arrow, Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer aka ATOM, Melissa Benoist as Kara Danvers aka Supergirl, Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent aka Superman, Katherine McNamara as Mia Smoak aka Blackstar. They were shooting a scene where the group is there, and are splitting up, as Flash, Supergirl & Superman leave, while Batwoman, Green Arrow, ATOM & Blackstar head into that building that we saw the battle with the Shadow Demons happen. The rooftop scenes were the first thing I saw filmed at this location, but as we know, they were the last thing shown for location scenes in the episode, as this is where the big fight with the Shadow Demons. The scene where Oliver Queen is mortally wounded. On location for that shoot they had The Flash, Batwoman, The Green Arrow, ATOM, Supergirl, Superman, Blackstar, and LaMonica Garrett as Mar Novu aka The Monitor (although I never got any photos of him up there). You can see the other photos from this set HERE Lastly, a short set from the 3rd episode for The Flash. On this day I saw 3 people on set there, John Wesley Shipp was there, but I only got 1 photo ofhim that day, which you can see in my prior set. I also got some photos of Tom Cavanagh on set, but since those were for one of the episodes that has yet to air (warning, if you go to that blog post... you WILL see a photo of him in there thats a spoiler), I did not include any of those here. But finally, I did see Ashley Scott as The Huntress on set that day for her short caemo appearance. You can find that blog post HERE Want more Arrowverse materials not related to Crisis?

UPDATE: October 29, 2019 - Video of both sets added at the bottom of the post. The massive 5 episode, 6 TV show Arrowverse cross over Crisis On Infinite Earths has begun filming in Vancouver. My day started off heading out to Surrey for a shoot I had just heard about the night before. I rarely go out to Surrey, so this was a bit of a learning experience unfortunately. The night before I had been told it was for Supergirl. Yet when I got there, I found no sign it was for them. So I am unsure for which episode it was for, as it was not there too long. The weather Monday was dreadful. Continual rain ranging anywhere from light rain to downpours. Not till the late afternoon was there any points where it was moderately dry for any periods, and they were sparse. When I first showed up there, not knowing the area, I saw a large building and thought that was where I needed to go, as the only things I knew about the area it was filming is there was a new hotel and a courtyard, and it looked like that was what was there..... turns out I was very very wrong. After a 40 minute walk that included me slipping and falling on a flat surface, I found them.... RIGHT UNDERNEATH WHERE THE TRAIN LET ME OUT. If I had simply turned left instead of right when coming out, or had paid attention when coming into the station I would have noticed the modestly small film unit just beside the station. Once I got there, a lot of nothing was going on for a while. When they finally did seem to start, I had gone for a walk to check out something, and came back to see them ready to shoot a scene. Unsure exactly where the scene was talking place in the area they had set up around, I looked into the middle of the large maze of lights & skrims they had set up to give them any light they could on the dreary overcast day. I finally saw a scene shot, and it was Stephen Amell dressed as the Green Arrow doing a scene where he seems to walk towards the middle of the courtyard from the library that was there. The angle I had for that was not good, so I went looking for a different one, and eventually found one..... just in time for them to have wrapped the 2 or 3 takes they did of that very short scene. Damn. A bit later, they were doing a different portion of the scene, and again, I wasnt sure exactly where they were shooting till near the end. I kept seeing background people running, but no actors around. my problem was I was looking near where Stephen had been earlier and where the background people were now running from thinking it was going to be more or less near there, but it wasnt. They had moved the primary part of it down to where I THOUGHT they were shooting at the start of the day, near the maze of lights and skrims. By the time I found a position for it, I instantly saw the scene had Grant Gustin as The Flash zipping in and having a talk with the Green Arrow. Unfortunately Stephen was off screen, so he wasnt in full GA gear by then. They did that scene for a bit, then wrapped. That was it. They probably did less actual filming time there than I did in transportation there. I am not sure if I missed any earlier parts, but there was two Central City Cabs parked at the set, but were never used during the time I was there. Perhaps they squeezed in a quick scene in the early part of the morning before I got there..... maybe I missed it on 45 minute tour of Surrey? While I was there, I got a DM on twitter telling me of a set downtown that unfortunately I was nowhere near, and worse yet, I FELT might happen... but I had my eyes too focused on this set out of town So I made the long trek back. After finally getting back to downtown Vancouver, I got a ride from 1 of my buddies over to the location for the Legends Of Tomorrow shoot. It was a massive huge battle scene. I will have more on that in a later blog post, as it was a scene that went on for multiple days. But this post will focus on a couple late afternoon & evening scenes they did. There was first a scene that had Caity Lotz as Sara Lance doing a scene where she is walking out of an alley. She at times seemed to be holding her head and maybe disoriented from something. She walks out into the middle of a street before 1 car comes to a screeching halt right near her, and another does the same before zipping around her & the stopped car. They also had a Star City Cab there, which they quite literally used for only 1 take of this scene. Quite random. After that scene wrapped, I stumbled upon the crew setting up for a different scene just 200 feet up the street that was NOT known by anyone. Unfortunately I was exhausted & the rain had not let up still, so I only waited for a little while. The only think I do know about the scene is Audrey Marie Anderson was in the scene. But unfortunately I didnt have my camera ready when she showed up. Want more Arrowverse materials not related to Crisis?

SPECIAL BONUS FOR YOUTUBE CONTENT CREATORS WITH OVER 10 MINUTE VIDEOS FOR THIS POST ONLY! - I will allow 8 (Eight) photos this time, instead of the usual 6, because of the multiple scenes to cover. All other rules still apply. UPDATED - OCTOBER 20, 2019 - 10:00 PM - Video added to the bottom of one of the scenes described below. The massive 5 episode, 6 TV show Arrowverse cross over Crisis On Infinite Earths has begun filming in Vancouver. On this day, Supergirl was shooting a variety of scenes in downtown Vancouver, that also included a short scene for Legends Of Tomorrow's episode that was being piggybacked off their unit to save time & $$. At 1 location, there were scenes inside the Butcher & Bullock Pub. They shot scenes in there for Supergirl AND Legends. Essentially with the same cast for all of it with 1 slight change between the two shows scenes. The pub was on Earth 1, and in Star City.... but I didnt catch if it had a name. In the opening scene they shot, Caity Lotz as Sara Lance and Brandon Routh as Ray Palmer (not Superman) were sitting in a pub playing trivia when Audrey Marie Anderson comes in as Harbinger and recruits them for Crisis. This scene was for the Supergirl episode. The later scene had Ray & Sara still there, but this time David Harewood as J'onn J'onnz was there with the pair, still in the same pub, just with J'onn there now instead of Harbinger. This scene seems like its after Crisis has ended, and maybe the pair were put back where they were found? But why is J'onn there now? This scene was for the Legends Of Tomorrow episode. I didnt really get a chance to photograph any of the people for that portion as I was busy trying to do my other part of this job there, getting autographs. I did snap a couple quick pics of David going in when he arrived. But that was it from there. Over at the other set, which was much more public. The early scene, which I missed because I was busy trying to cover off that other location, plus I had to leave for half an hour to cover a non-filming related thing, had a scene I sorely am disappointed to have missed. I saw the rehearsals for the scene, but the on screen actor was not there for it yet, just a stand in, with a large dog. Thankfully local set watcher TheMysciraBound caught the scene, and was generous enough to allow use of some of her photos below. The original Robin from the Batman TV show in the 1960s. Burt Ward was on set. He was decked out in Robin colours, and I am sure a lot of people want to theorize that hes a retired Robin living the good life walking Ace the Bathound. But I found out, his character name is literally "Burt Ward". He is on Earth 66 (the same year the series debuted... this will be a recurring theme I suspect as we already know 90s Flash came from Earth 90.... and another easter egg in the next scene descriptions below.). He looks up in the sky while walking a dog (no name for the dog was heard), and blurts out "Holy crimson skies...." (there was more, but the person I got the details from didnt hear it all)... and that was it. Burt was done for the day, and possibly the series. One other detail I can confirm about this scene. It will be in the first few minutes of the episode, as they show things going on with the different earths.
A scene was then done out in the middle of the street at Oceanic Plaza (a very busy & popular filming location) that consisted of Ruby Rose as Batwoman fighting members of a gang in bunny masks. At some point she gets the upper hand, she has a gun type decide pointed at the gang as they are running around being a menace. We then find all the bunny guys on the ground motionless as she moves in towards 1 of them, a bright light appears and Harbinger is there. She tells Batwoman she is needed for the Crisis, and BW chalks her up to just another crazy and throws some batarangs at her, which do absolutely nothing. A few of the Harbinger shots at the beginning come from an anonymous fan who allowed me to use their photos. They had a much better vantage point than I found, so I am grateful for their efforts.
A bit later, they did a stunt, and while they were prepping to do that stunt, on a different part of the area, they did a small quick scene with Robert Wuhl reading a newspaper, and he looks up into the sky. This scene takes place on Earth 89, and if you are confused by why that is, you obviously did not watch the 1989 Batman movie. Robert plays Alexander Knox, a reporter in that movie. I unfortunately was too exhausted to wait out that scene, but I did see them rehearsing it with a stand in sitting on the bench in his place. But it looked like they might be awhile till they were filming it, so I called it a night. When I have more time this weekend, I may have some video from the Batwoman scenes. But for now, here are photos of the scenes. Lastly, a little bonus. I am sure some fans want me to talk about the scoop I broke that honestly, crippled my twitter mentions. I'm aware theres a rabid fandom for this show & character, but really, I did not expect anywhere near this impact. You may have seen this tweet from me....
So, by sheer fluke I stumbled across The Flash filming at a studio that Arrow uses. While much of the crew there were terrific, one particular driver there decided they were going to flash their high beams right at me and a crew member when the cast was leaving theer trailers to get into the vehicle as a way of trying to prevent me from seeing them.
Well joke was on them, because I had actually seen the scene shot in part a couple takes inside the alley way they have at the studio. In it, I saw Matt Ryan as John Constantine, and Katherine McNamara as Mia Smoak there with of all peopel Tom Ellis dressed as Lucifer Morningstar. If you are an Arrowverse fan unfamiliar with Lucifer Morningstar, he is a character from a DC Vertigo property named "Lucifer". I also saw David Ramsey at the set, but from the angle I was at, I never actually saw him IN the scene. But there was literally no other reasons he would have been there, so I have to believe he was in the scene from an angle I could not see from the 2/3 of a city block away angle I had. All I know of the scene is, they walk out of a building that has a sign above it that says "hotel". I am sure some want photos. But its a private business, and shooting a scene in there would be at the least, a small problem morally, and depending what argument they wanted to go with, legally... So all I can do is report on it. ONLY reason I reported on it at all, is because of that 1 driver. I was completely willing to let that this slide by since I had no photos of it, but he tried to be a jerk on purpose, so, there it is. I also found out a couple other scoops this week. HOWEVER.... they are on things I did not witness myself. Thus why I am not including them in this blog post. Want more Arrowverse materials not related to Crisis?

SPECIAL BONUS FOR YOUTUBE CONTENT CREATORS WITH OVER 10 MINUTE VIDEOS FOR THIS POST ONLY! - I will allow 8 (Eight) photos this time, instead of the usual 6, because of the multiple scenes to cover. All other rules still apply. The massive 5 episode, 6 TV show Arrowverse cross over Crisis On Infinite Earths has begun filming in Vancouver. Yesterday morning, they were shooting a Supergirl portion of the cross over at David Lam Park in downtown Vancouver. The early scenes saw all Supergirl cast on set. First up was a scene with 100s of extras scattered around a courtyard, with some down below in a park walking around too. The scene has the extras moving towards an area to board a "spaceship" as a message is said by someone on a megaphone telling the calm public "No need to panic, Supergirl and Superman are working hard to save this planet". So it seems by this point in Crisis, things have got to the point that worlds are being evacuated.... but to where? The crowd was very calm, then suddenly, an earthquake hits, and panic sets in. Nicole Maines as Dreamer and Azie Tesfai as Kelly Olsen were in the middle of the panic, Kelly was trying to escort the public towards the way to go, and Dreamer was trying to contact someone through an earpiece. A little while later, they added Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers and Katie McGrath as Lena Luthor to the scene with Dreamer and Kelly. The scene seemed to be a continuation of the earthquake scene, and it has Alex and Dreamer seemingly staring towards some type of threat, while Kelly was helping people, and Lena was telling people to keep calm and leave in an orderly fashion. A bit later, they did a scene with Azie Tesfai, and her double, protecting a person with Cody Laudan (the stunt double for The Flash.... but was he being Barry, or just a random person?), but the big take away was Kelly Olsen, the sister of James Olsen, who was known as the Guardian, is seen using Guardians shield to protect the citizen. Is Supergirl making Kelly a new Guardian? While I was able to get photos of the Kelly stunt double with the shield, the couple takes they did with Azie holding it were inconveniently blocked by a large crane they were using for the earlier shots. So I never got a good one of her with it. After that scene was wrapped, the cast met fans out on the street before leaving for the day. The crew went on lunch break, and it was a long 2+ hour wait till they started filming for a night scene below. In the night scene they had, the Supergirl crew were working with a couple non-Supergirl cast, and the first scene I had encountered for Crisis On Infinite Earths where shows casts actually were sharing scenes. The Flash star Grant Gustin, and his double Cody Laudan as The Flash did a scene with Arrow recurring star Audrey Marie Anderson as not Lyla Michaels this time, but Harbinger in her first public shoot as the pivotal COIE character. In the early part of the evening, they had Grant as The Flash doing a scene where he speeds into a spot on a street, stops and tries to talk to Cisco over his coms. He seemingly cant get a hold of him, so he then asks for Iris, again with seemingly no reply, before a bright light in front of him makes him shield his eyes with his arm till the light fades down. He then stares towards the place that light came from. Later on, they had Cody take Grants place, and brought in Audrey. They then shot the scene from the Harbinger side. For the first take, there was a pretty decent angle to watch, but then they got really defensive, and went out of their way to try and cover it up, which was odd coming from a show that is generally respectful of photographers & fans watching, and even odder when they already dropped a promo of the suit, and shot the scene in public for a couple takes already. So I didn't get too many shots of Audrey in the suit before it was blocked off. After that scene, the crew wrapped and left to prepare for their future work on this epic cross over.
