I caught up with Supergirl filming episode 6x13  (and a scene for potentially a different episode that was being done there, as Jesse Warn was on the clapper board for 1 scene), directed by a long time TV director Tawnia McKiernan (daughter of industry icon Stephen J. Cannell). On this day, the cast & crew were downtown inside the Vancouver Convention Centre during the day, and at night, shooting 2 scenes (plus 1 for a different episode) in Jack Poole Plaza, (and out in front of the VCC around the corner from JPP).

The scenes included Melissa Benoist as Supergirl, David Harewood as Martian Manhunter, Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers / Sentinel,  and Staz Nair as William Dey. There was also a currently unknown woman, and a currently unknown teenager/young adult male.

They came out while it was still light out to do a walk through of the scenes and dialogue before breaking for lunch. In the read through, they had Melissa, Chyler, David, and Staz there, along with the new girl.

After it got dark, they had 2 different units running, almost at times overlapping each other a bit. At one end of the plaza, there was a scene where William saves the young male from something, then Sentinel comes in immediately & fends whatever it is off while William rushes the other character away from the scene. Unfortunately, that night, (and really the next night too), the angles I had for that scene did not produce very good photos, so I scrapped pretty much everything I shot at that end of the plaza. At the other end of the plaza, they had a scene with Supergirl standing on top of a van, trying to convince the unknown female girl to do something, while the girl yells at her about having her lifes work ruined by them. Martian Manhunter is also there, and at one point the girl shoves MM against the van. This is a scene they would continue on doing the next night, which will be in my next report soon. In the continuation of the scene, there will be more cast in the scene.

The short scene for the potentially other episode had multiple people running around in a panic, a car coming to a screeching halt and the driver running away. Very short, and did not seem to have any cast, and the 4 or 5 photos I got during the 1 take were all blurry because of that running, so I didnt include them, just the clapper board.

All of the scenes had various lights around the plaza blinking on & off to simulate lightning through the shooting, which is why at times some photos are dark, then suddenly some are quite bright.

I will have another set of photos soon (maybe even today if my schedule is free?)
Video will come later in May on my YOUTUBE CHANNEL. So check in there for those later on.
Some of the videos will be on the Patreon page for video tier members THIS WEEK, and more coming for a while (I have a few to work through).

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in Surrey at Guildford Mall for episode 516. The director is Tawnia McKiernan. (you may know her name from 4 other Supergirl episodes in the past, including last weeks episode "The Bottle Episode).

This was a rare venture for me, as I dont usually go all the way out to Surrey for anything. But a combination of boredom, and an instagram post from Chyler Leigh got me curious enough to go out and check it out.

Unfortunately, I missed the scenes Chyler did in her new costume. I saw her double later dressed in some of the outfit, but not the whole thing.

What I did see though, and the context of the scene that was mentioned over & over again by the crew as they let the man on stage who at this time I only know by his character name of "Rock Starman" (is there any more of a music name than that??) know what is going on.

The scene has Rock performing on a stage, when suddenly a dragon comes in (obviously to be CGIed in later) and "Supergirl" comes in and saves the day. After its realized the threat has been thwarted, Rock gives an acknowledgement towards Supergirl and continues playing.

Not long after that scene, they did a scene with a mob of people rushing to the stage to cheer..... then, they wrapped.

The location of this concert was at a place called "Obsidian North Platinum" in a location called "Virtual National City Mall", so was this concert for top tier members of Obsidian?

I did find out a couple things, obviously the most important info being the episode number, and episode title. An episode focused on Alex being Supergirl makes some sense when you realize that Melissa Benoist is directing episode 17, and would be busy with prep for that episode right now. Now HOW she ends up that way.... we will have to wait and see.

Below are some photos form the set. But here also is a video of a scene with Alex coming in that a twitter user caught there.

Here are some of the photos I took from the set below. If anyone knows the name of the man playing "Rock Starman" feel free to let me know, and I will credit him accordingly.
