The Flash cast & crew filmed scenes on Monday & Tuesday in downtown Vancouver in an area they have been using quite frequently in the last couple years. Monday started with them filming inside the CBC Studio, which is a large TV & radio studio for Canada's National TV station, right in downtown Vancouver. This is the episode being directed by the show runner, Eric Wallace. I learned a couple of details on this day beyond what I physically saw, I will get on to that later. The days exterior scene had two returning characters on set filming. Jesse L. Martin as Joe West, was filming with Patrick Sabongui as David Singh. The setting seemed to be set in the past, maybe the 1980s, or 90s? Ads in the area including one for an older model computer, as well as ads for CC Jitters, and Big Belly Burger. As well, there was some older style cop cars there, with some older model civilian cars. On top of that, Joe was wearing a Police officer jacket, and Singhs hair looked different than it does these days. The scene had them investigating a crime scene in the middle of the street, with Singh walking up to Joe, saying a couple things, and then walking away to talk to other officers. Then Joe walks over & grabs something that was being described as a "crystal" off the ground (looks similar to the one we see at the end of season 8), puts it in his pocket, then Singh comes over to him & talks to him again, with Joe storming off, as Singh looks back at him suspiciously. I never got a photo of Joe with the crystal, so I had to take a screen cap from my videos to show you what it looked like in the photos below. Despite it being in plain view in this pic, in the majority of takes, he puts it in his pocket before Singh comes over (this might have been just a rehearsal take). Some of the photos I took over these two days, might look grainy/fuzzy, that is because I was shooting through a window in the library, as street angles were not always good. So if you see one that seems a little fuzzier, that might be why. This was essentially all they filmed for the time I was there. I had planned on coming back for the evening shoot, but got there too late. The film notice said they were supposed to be there till 9, and I got there just after 7 to find they had just wrapped shortly before I got there. When I got a chance to look at my photos from that day, I was more upset I missed it, as I found a piece of info in my photos that if I had seen it in real time, I wouldnt have left the set. On Tuesday, they were back in the same block. This time, two completely different returning guest stars were on the set, along with Grant Gustin as Barry Allen. John Wesley Shipp was on set as Henry Allen, with Michelle Harrison as Nora Allen. The trio did a scene that had Henry & Nora walking together up the street. They then stopped at a CC Jitters kiosk, and grabbed a drink. They then were talking, when all of a sudden Barry is thrust into the area, falling into the middle of the street. The first while when I saw this scene being shot, I thought Barry got hit by a car, but after seeing more of it, from other angles, I now realize he got thrust TOWARDS the car, which stops just in front of him, after Henry runs out into the street & bangs on the hood of the car as it stops. Henry & Nora then run over to an onconscious Barry, and Nora gets on an old style flip phone, while Henry checks Barrys vitals. After a while, Grant & John left set, and they brought in the stunt doubles for them, while Michelle stayed to do the dialogue part of her characters scene, while Grants double gets thrown across the concrete, and Johns double runs out in front of the car. After that, they wrapped up that location & moved across the street. UNFORTUNATELY, like the first day, I misused my time, but in a different way this time. They moved across the street to shoot a scene at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, which they renamed the Central City Theater for the scene. I know nothing of what happened in the scene, because I really thought I had more time, and was doing a live chat while they were filming, and when I was done with that, unfortunately was just after they had wrapped. I assumed they were going to come back, but they did not. All I know about the scene is Grant was there again, dressed as Barry. There are two details I picked up while I was there on the first day by dumb luck. One is, a guest star that ALSO filmed on the Monday set, but unfortunately not while I was there, that is Rick Cosnett was working that day. I DO NOT KNOW the character he was playing, so dont get carried away with speculations. The other, is the episode title, which I found curious. "A New World: Part One". There will be some video from scenes from this episode to post in the next few weeks, so come back to find those then, or you can subscribe to my Youtube channel and get them there when they drop. Some from the first part of the cross over is already up there. You can find ALL of The Flash videos I have shot since right back to the pilot episode HERE on Youtube.

THIS BLOG POST IS FOR A "THE FLASH" SEASON 8 EPISODE (I think its 6, but could be 7)?? , & MAY CONTAIN POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR THE SEASON.

If you are confused on how many you can post, ASK FIRST, and I will let you know. The Flash was on location for the season 8 in an area I have never seen anyone filming in previously in the downtown core, which is pretty rare (someone may have been there before, I personally just didnt know about it). At the beginning, they had Jesse L Martin as Joe West there doing a scene with someone we heard was coming back (if you keep your ear to the ground on what main websites were posting about the show) Rick Cosnett was back as Eddie Thawne. To begin, they rush in to the area in their police car. Then Eddie goes running off with his gun out, while Joe stays behind. In their scene, a man comes out of a jewellery store just covered in jewellery. Joe & the crook then have a stand off, where the crook tells Joe he has a real gun with real bullets, while Eddie was off to the side hiding behind a tree. Then 2 more characters come in. Jordan Fisher as Bart Allen, and Jessica Parker Kennedy as Nora West Allen show up. Something startles them. They then have a debate about what to do. Then Jordan rushes in, and does something to the crook that takes the gun out of his hands, and Joe goes over and arrests the guy, and Eddie comes in to collect the gun off the ground. That was more or less everything they shot. Because of the order they shot, and angles they shot.... I dont really know the exact point where pieces overlapped. At the end of my time there, they shot 1 more scene with a mystery woman (I thought at 1st it could be Britnie Oldford as Peek-A-Boo... but wasnt 100% sure. Kinda dont think it is though.) standing behind a car with a couple other people. Only reason I dont think she was an extra is because main hair & make up team worked on her, and she had a costumes jacket for the weather.

If you are confused on how many you can post, ASK FIRST, and I will let you know. The Flash was on location for season 7 shooting on Friday in 2 different spots around downtown Vancouver. They were filming scenes for episode 707, with Alexandra La Roche directing. (director of Goldfaced episode, as well as 5 other episodes of The Flash, plus 7 other Arrowverse episodes over the years on Legends Of Tomorrow and Arrow). The first location was in a lot attached to B.C. Place, which many know as the place for exterior shots of S.T.A.R. Labs. This is a location they have used at least once before as shown in this previous set HERE .... but not since season 1. Again, like back then, they used it as a parking lot at the CCPD. This time, the location had several Police cars, and 1 Meta Human Task Force vehicle there. The scene had Jesse L Martin as Joe West, shooting a scene with Carmen Moore. In the scene, we see Joe speed walking after this woman, who is named Kristin Kramer, through the lot. According to the synopsis for episode 7x05, Kristin is "a member of the "Governor's Municipal Logistics Commission" (whatever thats supposed to be) As she gets to her car, he confronts her, and the pair have a serious, but not seemingly hostile, talk. It seemed like Joe was trying to reason with her for some reason. But what could that be? They did shoot another scene after that at the side of that Meta Human truck, but there was no reasonable angle to see what was going on. What I can say is, immediately before they started shooting that scene, Danielle Panabaker showed up in Killer Frost attire. I can not say if she was in this scene, but her timing compared to when they started filming would suggest she could have been. As well, based off the second set below, I think its probable she was in the scene..... just what was the premise of the scene is completely unknown though. The second location was in a parking lot across the street from B.C. Place, in a place that really is only used for parking now, but used to be a popular sports bar back in the day. I actually passed that location first on my way to the earlier location, so I stopped and took a couple close up shot of the doors & posters while the chance was there. A few hours later, the crew moved to this location. Many of the Police vehichles from the first location were moved over to this location. Including that Meta Human task force vehicle. In this night scene, they had made the empty building look like a pub, even decorated with fake signage out on the street promoting the now recurring made up band Sickada (seen on this season 7 set on a poster) at O'Shaughnessy's Pub. Outside the pub, the CCPD had set up to take down someone.... but who??. Well, much to my shock, KILLER FROST! The woman from the earlier scene, Kristen Kramer, was now at this location yelling orders at Frost to come out with her hands up. She tells her she has 2 minutes to come out, then 1 minute, then says time is up, and tells the squad of Meta Human Task Force members to move in, before seeing Frost move towards the front door with her hands up. She then tells the task force members to stand down, as Frost comes out, and agrees to being handcuffed. So you can start your speculations on WHY is a group that you would think Captain West would have some control over, is pursuing Frost now. How did she go from helping Team Flash in episode 3 of this season (HERE) to being hunted by the CCPD? Is this what the earlier interaction at the other set was over? On my walk back over there before the scene started, I got there moments before Danielle got to the set. She was wearing a face shield, instead of a mask. I have seen both versions being used by different crews, but she was the 1st cast member I had seen on The Flash using this method. I got to speak to her momentarily & congratulate her on her new child. She was, as always, pleasant & thanked me. It was quite cold this night, and there was only about an hour left in filming at that location when I decided that I needed to call it a night. Perhaps more was filmed after, but considering how little time was left on their time there, it seems unlikely much else came of the scene. I will have some video of these scenes later on this month. You can this when its up, as well as my other past videos on my Youtube channel. The Flash season 7 will air Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S. starting February 23, 2021.

The Flash shot some scenes for episode 6x12 in a place called "The Permanent". It is actually used a fair bit by the film industry, including recently in the Arrowverse where Sargon The Sorcerer got KO'ed in Crisis On Infinite Earths. All the filming was inside, as you can see from the 1 photo below, they didnt have any sightlines in there. Unlike when I shot the Sargon scene, and ended up as a little black & beige blur in the corner of 1 of the windows. On this day, a few cast were in & around the set. I saw Grant Gustin at one point dressed in his Flash attire. I also saw Hartley Sawyer at a couple points, in both Elongated Man, and Ralph Dibny attire. Jesse L Martin was there as Joe West. Along with them were two people I wasnt expecting. First up, Alexa Barajas was back as Ultraviolet. But the one I didnt know I had photographed at the time, till after the fact, and thus, why I forgot I had these till now was.... Natalie Dreyfuss as Sue Dearbon. At the time I thought it might be her, as I knew she should be coming in that episode, and she got dropped off in a cast vehicle, but I wasnt entirely sure, so I just kept it aside till I knew more. Then forgot about them, until todays promo photo of her in the Cop jacket came out & I put the pieces together. So heres a really quick little post of pics from the cast going in & out of the set that day. I know this is a shorter than usual blog post, but I was just reminded I had these photos from the new promos that came out for the episode today.

The Flash was on location for an episode of the 6th season a couple weeks ago in downtown Vancouver. It was a late night shoot, that started with severla cast members, including Grant Gustin as Barry Allen, Jesse L Martin as Joe West, Candice Patton as Iris West Allen and Danielle Nicolet as Cecile Horton were on set at this location at varying points. With a lot of picture vehicles on set for the scene, along with the productions equipment, there was very little to actually see of the scenes shot. All I know of the scenes with the actors is that there was a scene where Barry & Iris walk across the gravel parking lot, first 1, then the other a second or two later. Another scene had Joe walking the opposite direction from where they walked to. Later on, the only scene you could see clearly at any point was with Joe standing on top of something and looking forward. A bit later, after the cast had left the lot, they did a huge stunt scene with an exploding car that I was there for, but sort of missed the original explosion as I believed it was going to be the truck driving towards us blowing up, and not a random car in the background. Luckily I had my phone taking photos at the same time I was video taping it, so I got SOME photos of the explosion. But my video, I only caught the after effect of it. Throughout the night, I walked around the set (in fact, while I did so one time, was when Grant, and Candice came over & met some fans. One particular fan was nice enough to let me use a couple of their photos of their interactions in my post here), and found 3 different city billboards they had covered up with Central City specific ads. One for CC Jitters, One for Big Belly Burger, and 1 for Ralph Dibny, along with a parking sign for a Central City parkade. I was most amused with the Dibny one for the fine print on it that states he "No longer performs exorcisms/ demon removal". I am curious, does this have something to do with an upcoming episode? Or, does this have something to do with Dibs in the old timeline? A little curious on that one. At the end of the night, a driving scene was done, that had them drive a vehicle down the street past those ads we saw along the street.

UPDATE: (July 11, 2019 at 9:30 AM) Video added at the bottom of some scenes. The Flash was again on location for this first episode of the season. After my post about filming in the first week HERE. I did not expect to catch up to them again so soon. This time there were shooting scenes for episode 601 yesterday in a part of downtown Vancouver known as Coal Harbour... I posted a short blog on 1 portion of it several hours ago, for the Danielle Panabaker as Killer Frost new costume reveal HERE. But that was not all that happened that day. The day started out with the crew and stunt team for The Flash doing work on a scene where a man is seemingly blown away, then, pulled back through the air. A bit later, they also did a stunt where they made a car move across a street upside down while people were running. In between the stunt scenes, they had 1 short scene in the morning where Hartley Sawyer as Elongated Man did a scene with a man dressed like the stunt guy from earlier where he grabs him, spins him around, before the guy gets a scared look on his face, and runs away, while Hartley runs in the opposite direction. Before they went to their lunch break they did 1 more scene with just 100s of extras running away from something. After their lunch break, more filming went on in this location. Jesse L. Martin was the first cast member to show up after the break, and he had his newly minted Captain Joe West look going as he first did a scene where he just looked on at something as people ran around in a panic. Then shortly after he did a scene with Danielle. I was confused by the scene, as Danielle was in her KF attire, but the way the scene looked, it almost looked like she was trying to attack Joe. But I'm assuming I just missed something that maybe was going on behind him. A bit later, Jesse wrapped that location. They then had Danielle & Hartley shooting a scene together where the pair seem to be facing some daunting task, and somehow overcome it, which leads to a moment only Ralph Dibny and Caitlin Snow could engage in really as Elongated Man hughs Killer Frost for a moment before stopping and awkwardly making a motion like "sorry I didnt mean to do that", before having the moment reciprocated with Killer Frost giving Elongated Man a hug back. AGAIN, REMINDER - Please adhere to the photo limits in the blog post posted linked in the red text paragraph above. I can not stress enough that I am not going to allow the laziness of not reading it to be an excuse.

You may NOT make 3 posts of just 1 part. Please make note of this rare bonus permission. The Flash was shooting scenes for episode 601 yesterday in a quiet North Burnaby neighbourhood. The scene had Grant Gustin as Barry Allen, Jesse L Martin as Joe West, Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow, Candice Patton as Iris West Allen, Danielle Nicolet as Cecille Horton, Victoria Park as Kamilla Hwang, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand *drum roll* Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon shooting a scene that takes place in a back yard. Judging by the attire of those there, it would seem they were shooting a hanging out in the backyard enjoying the day type of scene. The scene description on the film notice called it a "family bbq". Only thing I know of the scene is the attire most were wearing, and that at some point I heard the classic Flash air guns go off. Was Barry taking off to, or returning from, a situation, or did he just head off real quick to grab some steaks for the bbq? Barry, Joe & Iris were in full "summer time" attire mode, as Grant was wearing a Hawaiin shirt, Jesse had on a casual shirt, and Candice was wearing a floral orange/brown and white pattern summer dress. During 1 break, and after they wrapped, I had a chance to chat with a few of the cast. Some briefer than others. But mostly everyone seemed to be in a great mood. I asked Grant about his costume for this season, he confirmed there will be a chin strap/cowl for the army of haters out there for the season 5 suit. I asked him straight up if he was getting a new suit, he said "yeah, its mostly the same though..." then I asked specifically about the chinstrap/cowl situation, and he said there will be 1 this year. I then told him how it was many peoples largest complaint last year, and he turned around and in a really joking manner waved his arms and said "everyones so petty". Jesse told me that his back is all good. Also, Carlos was right about what he said to me at the end of last season when he said "and I'll see you", he sure did and waved at me to say hi as I was moving towards getting someone else. I felt bad that I didnt have a moment to at least say "good to see you back" to him. When I asked Danielle Panabaker if she had a chance to try out the new Killer Frost outfit yet, she just smirked and said "you'll just have to wait & see". Only notable cast that I did not see there, and they did not have a trailer there were Tom Cavanagh and Hartley Sawyer.
