The Flash shot a scene late March 5th/early March 6th for the episode 120 that recently aired. An earlier scene was shot inside upstairs with Tom Cavanagh. Then as he left, those needed for the exterior scene arrived. Grant Gustin was in his Flash attire, and I I saw Patrick Sabongui on set as Captain Singh, but it was dark & he was far away, so I never got any good shots of him. The scene is pretty cut & dry. People in an apartment/business tower evacuate as fire & police show up. Then, lastly, The Flash comes to the door & speeds away. The Flash and Barry Allen/The Flash are up for this years May Madness tournament going on right now HERE The Flash autographs can be found HERE The Flash airs Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S. and on CTV in Canada.

This blog contains possible spoilers for episode 111 "The Sound And The Fury" of The Flash. If you have not seem this episode, and do not want to read or view spoilers prior to its airing, please do not continue reading or viewing the photos. . . . . last warning . . Back in early November I caught The Flash shooting scenes for episode 111 in downtown Vancouver with Grant Gustin and his stunt double Cody Laudan as "The Flash" and this episodes guest star Andy Mientus as "Hartley Rathaway" aka "The Pied Piper".... or "Angry Harry Potter". There was several scenes shot on this day, including a cop car exploding...which I missed. However I did get there in time to see a couple other cool scenes. First up I got to watch The Flash run around behind a bunch of Central City cops, grabbing their batons & throwing them. Based on where he was throwing them, I am going to assume it was at Hartley Rathaway. A little later a cool stunt scene was shot (which I have video of, but wont post it till after the episode airs) of The Flash being tossed through a glass logo display for Rathaway Industries. Once The Flash picks himself he then confronts the Pied Piper. Scenes with Gustin & Mientus as The Flash & Pied Piper were then shot where The Flash appears to disarm the Piper and grabs him by the scuff of his neck. The Flash airs Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S and on CTV in Canada. This episode airs tomorrow, January 27, 2015.                                            This blog post contains possible spoilers for episode 110 "Revenge Of The rogues: of THE FLASH. If you have not seen this episode yet and do not want to read or view any materials about it, please do not continue. . . . last warning . . Back in mid-October I found the set for the People's Choice Awards winner for Best New Drama "The Flash" shooting some scenes in downtown Vancouver. It is rare that I get to a set for the show & find no Grant Gustin at it, but this time that was the case. But I was ok with that, as the alternative this night was 2 guest stars of note for episode 110, Revenge Of The Rogues. On set were former Prison Break stars Wentworth Miller & Dominic Purcell dressed as their Rogues alter-egos Leonard " Captain Cold " Snart & Mark " Heatwave " Rory. The scene seemed to have the specialty gun toting nemeses of The Flash shooting their Cold & Heat guns at something or someone that seemingly moved very quick. The Flash is up for several 2014 Best Of TV Awards. You can vote on the awards HERE. The awards will be running throughout the 1st 3 weeks of January. The episode with this dynamic duo together airs January 20, 2015 when The Flash returns from its Hiatus on The CW in The U.S. & CTV in Canada.                                         THIS POST CONTAINS PHOTOS & A BREIF DESCRIPTION OF SCENES SHOT FOR EPISODE 108 "THE FLASH VS ARROW" A FEW WEEKS AGO. If you have not yet seen the episode, and do not want to read or see any possible spoilers from it... please to don't continue reading the article, or viewing the photos . . . last chance . . So, as everyone reading this likely knows. Episode 8 of season 3 of Arrow, and season 1 of The Flash will be a cross over episode in which characters from both shows will be featured on each episode, starting with The Flash next Tuesday night & concluding the night after on Arrow. A few weeks ago, several scenes were shout downtown for The Flash episode, titled "The Flash VS Arrow". I intended to have some of these up sooner, and put up the final batch this week...but I got sidetracked. So, heres 1 whole megapost of pics from the 3 days of shoots. The 1st day was the only day I saw any members from Arrow on set shooting. Of course, it happened to be THE ARROW. Stephen Amell and his stunt double Simon Burnett were on the set shooting a scene with Grant Gustin & his stunt double Cody Laudan for the episode. I never really got a chance to SEE much of the scene, but it seemed to be some type of confrontation between the two heroes, which makes me think Flash VS Arrow is going to have some friction between the masked men.             The next day saw scenes done in a building that featured Jesse L. Martin as Joe West. I also saw the stunt doubles of Grant Gustin & Stephen Amell around that day, but not sure what the scenes entailed since they were all indoors. On the final day, they had multiple scenes happen. First off was a scene where they had The Flash star Grant Gustin running into what seems to be the ONLY bank in Central City (and 1 that seems to have a lot of bad luck). They filmed a couple other scenes in & around the bank with guest star of the week Paul Anthony (aka Roy G. Bivolo aka - Chromo) who did a solo scene a block over earlier in the day that I'm guessing was of him getting ready to enter the bank....then he moved over to the actual bank set where he enters the bank and soon after scenes were shot where a scene like something out of the WWE Royal Rumble took place where everyone in the bank just started fighting each other. I honestly don't know what the scene will look like on camera, but from outside it looked pretty wild & funny. After the bank scene was shot. Grant Gustin poked his head out the door in his Barry Allen attire, waved at the fans standing across busy Pender Street. Then, in what has so far in the time The Flash has shot here, been a rare occurrence, a few seconds later, came back out and came across the street to meet the handful of fans before he headed off to lunch.                              After lunch, the crew & cast returned to a side street around the corner from the bank scene for a night stunt scene involving Grant Gustin, Rick Cosnett & Candice Patton and their stunt doubles. The scene seems to have The Flash using his body to slow down/stop a car from hitting Eddie Thawne who was standing in the middle of the street. After Eddie jumps out of the way, The Flash comes over to him to confront detective pretty boy as Iris comes running in from the distance. This scene was an interesting one for me, because I never really thought Grant could muster up a menacing volume of speaking, but the verbal tongue lashing he put on Eddie there was quite intense. Needless to say if Iris was close enough to hear his conversation with Eddie, she would HAVE to know its Barry now after what he said, and as loud as he did. During 1 of the re-positions of the scene and equipment Grant came over to a couple of fans still waiting at the set in the early hours of the morning. He briefly chatted with them, but said he couldn't take photos while in the suit. I asked him if he could once the show airs (it had not aired yet) and he said "maybe".... so far, I haven't had the chance to test that. Shortly after, we were moved back further & I felt there was not much more I probably would see worth sticking around at such a late hour & went home. The Flash is currently up for several BEST OF TV AWARDS 2014 going on right now HERE. The Flash airs Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S. and CTV in Canada. The Flash/Arrow cross over episodes will air December 2nd for The Flash, December 3rd for Arrow.                             Better late than never, right? Back in August THE FLASH shot a few scenes for an upcoming episode that I BELIEVE is tonights, or next weeks judging by when it was shot. The scene didn't have much to describe since a crew member felt it was their goal in life to block off the entire scene from public viewing despite no cast or crew complaining even once about me prior to him doing so. I can confirm Grant Gustin as Barry Allen did a few scenes in the Flash suit, and later did scenes with Candice Patton. His stunt man Cody Laudan also did scenes as The Flash. THE FLASH returns tonight after its 1 week hiatus for the U.S. mid-term elections on The CW in the U.S. and on CTV in Canada. The Flash is nominated for several awards including Best New Show at the 2014 Best Of TV Awards taking place now thru early January 2015 Here.                    My 1st real opportunity to shoot any scenes of The CW new super hero program The Flash, since the pilot episode came in early August when I caught up to their set up in East Vancouver. On set when I first got there was the stunt team preparing to do a scene where a Police car would drive up the street backwards, spin around and almost hit a stunt man who was portraying Jesse L. Martin for the scene. First thing I noticed about this Police Car was... a LOT of 52's on it. On the roof, the back hood, on the bumper... and even in the license plate number. Clearly the writers ae trying to slide in a few trillion references to The New 52, which is the DC Comics revamped line of their products that started in 2011. They have done it in Arrow as well (at least once that I noticed... probably others) and I have caught The Flash do it at least twice now (this being the 1st... another in a later shoot that will get posted soon with a fire truck) already. Later on Jesse L. Martin came to set and shot the scenes where his character Detective Joe West is on the ground. After that shoot, they wrapped the outside shoots and moved indoors. I saw a transport truck arrive out of the corner of my eye and hastily snapped off a few pics of who arrived....unfortunately, I didn't have time to zoom in on the area and wasn't aware who I shot till I saw other peoples pics from earlier in the day, later on. It was Wentworth Miller showing up to shoot scenes as Leoard Snart aka - Captain Cold. The Flash airs Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S. & on CTV in Canada.                       The new CW series The Flash films scenes for the Pilot Episode with Grant Gustin and Candice Patton7/10/2014 As you may have seen from my 1st ever Flash blog post with the video, the CW pilot for the comic book hero series "The Flash" filmed a scene where they blow up a couple cars. They also filmed scenes before the crash stunt of Grant Gustin (Barry Allen aka The Flash ) leaving the scene of a car wreck. In this scene, Grant was clearly out of the car and seemed to sense the impending crash and "zipped" out of harms way before the explosion scene. Also filming scenes that afternoon was Candice Patton ( Iris West ). When the filming day was over, Grant came over to the 4 of us waiting to meet him, despite 1 of them angering a few crew throughout the day, Grant still came over & signed.
