The Flash was on location for season 7 shooting on Friday morning, afternoon and evening for episode 717. The director is Eric Dean Seaton, he directed the The Exorcism Of Nash Wells episode last season. This is also the 150th episode for the series.

There was 2 parts to this blog... if you saw the 1st set of photos previously & think you saw everything in here already, there is a 2nd set of photos at the bottom that were added later.

At this 2nd location, they had Grant Gustin as The Flash, Jessica Parker Kennedy as XS, and Jordan Fisher as Impulse, all on location again with 6 Godspeeds. The scene was vaguely similar to the episode 7x15 set I shot a few weeks ago, except this time Barrys kids were beside him to witness the insanity. The 6 Godspeed clones all seemed to be fighting each other, while the trio of heroes stood, and watched them do it.... then, the trio ran off in different directions. That was it.

The last location of the day took place a block away at (report coming as soon as I have the photos edited) an area they have used a fair bit this season (not exactly where they were, but that general block), in front of the new Parq Hotel, The Douglas Hotel, and the new casino that are at the back of B.C. Place Stadium. With these businesses all either closed, or at severe reduced capacity, it was easy for the to get permission to use this street on a Friday afternoon.

The Douglas was dressed up to say "CC CITIZEN MEDIA", The entrance for the casino said "Powers Technology" which in the comics is a rival of Wayne Enterprises, and the Parq Hotel said "Goode World Studios", which is a reference to te Young Justice animated series, where that company exists.

On set for this scene was Jordan Fisher as Bart Allen / Impulse, and Jessica Parker Kennedy as Nora West Allen / XS.

The scene I saw shot was a little complicated to follow because of the way they were chopping it up into small parts for the filming. From what I can sort of piece together.... Godspeed is looking menacing, arms up in the air, then ends up getting KO'ed. Then both Godspeed & XS are on the ground (so was XS on the ground all along, and the camera didnt see it the way they were filming?). At some point XS gets up, and then Godspeed sits up does something with his arm that seems like maybe hes trying to make 1 last attempt to do something, before falling back down. Somewhere mixed in all of this is Impulse letting out a couple really loud "Woooo" sounds, and then we see XS & Impulse having a talk with Godspeed out cold behind them. Bart is all happy & seems like hes trying to tell Nora its all good, while Nora seems to be telling him something in a more stern "take this serious" tone. They then look back at the Godspeed on the ground, go back to their convo, then turn around again, and he isnt there. They then walk a bit towards where he should have been, and that was the end of the scene.  Just before I left, they were prepping to do stunts with Noras stunt double, I am assuming that was going to be the part where Nora also ends up down and out on the ground with Godspeed that I saw the after result of.

There was a scene earlier in the day, that set report is HERE

There will be some video from these scenes to post in the next couple weeks, so come back to find those then, or you can subscribe to my Youtube channel and get them there when they drop.

The Flash was on location for season 7 shooting on Friday morning, afternoon and evening for episode 717. The director is Eric Dean Seaton, he directed the The Exorcism Of Nash Wells episode last season. This is also the 150th episode for the series.

On this day, they had 3 locations. The first, was a small quiet, rarely used side street not far from the location they use for S.T.A.R. Labs exteriors, and just a block down the road from where Abra Kadabra was killed by Fuerza earlier this season.

This early morning shoot had Grant Gustin as The Flash, along with returning star Jessica Parker Kennedy as XS, along with recently announced new addition to the cast, Jordan Fisher, as Bart Allen, aka Impulse.

For this scene, they started with stunts, as the stunt double for Impulse did a scene where he, and 1 of the several Godspeeds that were on the set, are thrown across the pavement. Both of them ge tup quickly, and face off, but soon, Impulse finds himself surrounded by a gang of 6 Godspeeds. They raise their arms up, Impulse cowers..... and then the Godspeeds just leave.... a moment later, XS & The Flash come in, and the family have a chat.

There were a couple other scenes done on the day at other locations I will get to in a later blog post sometime this weekend, or early next week.

There will be some video from these scenes to post in the next couple weeks, so come back to find those then, or you can subscribe to my Youtube channel and get them there when they drop.

The Flash was shooting scenes for episode 522 earlier this month in downtown Vancouver. On night one of their 2 night shoot, there was a scene that had several cast on set. Grant Gustin, Jessica Parker Kennedy, Danielle Panabaker, Hartley Sawyer, Carlos Valdes, Tom Cavanagh and Candice Patton.

I caught a few moments sporadically throughout their shoots where I got a couple short videos. Apologies in advance if you are not happy with the video quality. Feel free to buy me a top quality video camera, and I will shoot better videos. But THESE were done with my $500 Camera (not video specific camera), and from 2 city blocks away. Lastly, when you are out at night looking at it on a 2 inch screen, it looks a lot better than when you finally get it home and see it on a 20 inch computer screen.

In the first video below, I merged 3 different clips together featuring all the cast at different points.

UPDATED APRIL 22, 2019 - 3:50 PM - More clips added at the bottom.

There was also a scene shot with Grant Gustin, Jessica Parker Kennedy and Tom Cavanagh a bit later that I made a separate video for below..

The Flash was shooting scenes for episode 522 Wednesday night and Thursday night in  Granville Plaza. Oddly enough, a location they used for last years finale. This time however, they were calling it "Central City Plaza" and had a fake hotel sign out there.

The scene had Grant Gustin as The Flash, Carlos Valdes as Vibe, Danielle Panabaker as Killer Frost, Hartley Sawyer as Elongated Man, Jessica Parker Kennedy as XS and Candice Patton as Iris West Allen shooting a scene with 1 other vry notable cast member on set. Tom Cavanagh was also there, but this time, not as Sherloque Wells, but as long time recurring villain Reverse Flash.

Unlike the day before, when I showed up to a shoot for The Flash that lasted less than 2 hours, they used up every second they could this time, as the filming notices they have to hand out to businesses said they would film till 5:30 AM, and I can confirm that at almost 5 AM, a couple cast members were still there filming when I finally left. It is quite rare for an overnight shoot to use up every minute they can. Usually these notices say "5:30" but they are usually done by "3:00" (or some time frame around couple hours short of what they say they need).

Of course the big spoiler on this set was that Grant Gustin had his 3 dogs at the set...... okay, and I guess, the Reverse Flash at some point gets out and is causing havoc. I was unable to confirm if this scene is in current day, or in 2049. But with the entire hero squad, and their blogger friend there, I feel it was a current day scene.

The scene seemed to be splintered into parts, so I was really unable to really follow what all happens. All I can say is, the whole team lines up against Reverse Flash and lots of talking seems to take place. At one point they did a scene with just Flash & RF, and it seems like Flash AGAIN lets RF run away. But I cant say with certainty since like I said, the scene really seemed to be broken down into a lot of small parts that could play out in any random order on screen.

There are MANY MORE photos from this set, but I wanted to get a few up right away for everyone to start talking about. So check back in a day or 2 to see a few more.

I also have some photos from a daytime scene from the day before this shoot of Grant and Candice doing a scene, I will try to get to that this weekend. But obviously because of the importance of these scenes, I had to work on this one first.

UPDATED: APRIL 12, 2019 - 12:30 AM - An extra photo added from Twitter user @TheMysciraBound that I asked her to send me, because it was a bit more crisp & clear front shot than any I got of Reverse Flash (I believe for a stunt scene).

UPDATED: APRIL 16, 2019 - 7:45 PM - More photos added, from night 2 of filming at the bottom. Plus some details on the last night of filming.

The Flash returns to TV for the end of season run on The CW in the U.S. on Tuesday after a few weeks off with the episode that I shot a couple months ago HERE and a short video HERE.

Night 2 of shooting had much of the same..... except this time, there was the always present random smoke that The CW shows love to use so much. I think maybe 3 or 4 times in my life have I walked down a street or past an alley and seen as much steam/smoke coming out of it as these shows claim exists. Sometimes I find the smoky effect helps with photos, sometimes it hinders. On this night, I would say hinders. Especially when saddled with the fact I had to shoot from an extra 25 metres away this time.

All the same cast were on set, again, shooting scenes with all the heroes, and Iris, facing off against Thawne. I saw moments where Killer Frost, Vibe, and Elongated Man, all at different times, seemed to be trying to use their powers. I am not sure what the context was of them using them, but each of them at some point seem to be using their special skills in this battle.

At the end of the night, which was just a shade before 5:30 AM, the cast left. I chatted with Grant about his new hairdo while signed a few autographs for me, and he assured me it wont be on screen like that. He was going to be in his costume for the scenes after when he got the cut, so it was all good for continuity. So dont worry fans, Barry did not lose a fight with a razor. I chatted with Hartley and Jessica for a moment, and told both of them to enjoy their breaks, and they both thanked me for saying so. Of course, the big moment came when Carlos Valdes was leaving. I asked him again, as I did back during filming for episode 17, if he was coming back. This time, his answer was an emphatic "of course", and I said "ok, great, guess I'll see you next season" and he replied back "and I'll see YOU next season". So it sounds like you can count in Carlos for at least 1 more season on The Flash.

That was the end of season 5 of The Flash filming.
Enjoy these extra few (albeit quite grainy/fuzzy due to how far away I had to stand) photos from night #2 of filming.

The Flash was shooting scenes for episode 521 last month in downtown Vancouver. On night one of their 2 night shoot, there was a scene that had several cast on set. Grant Gustin, Jessica Parker Kennedy, Hartley Sawyer, Carlos Valdes and Candice Patton. I never caught them actually shooting the scene when I was shooting a video. But I did get them hanging around waiting to shoot a scene still in their own everyday clothes. In this one, you see Grant dancing a bit. I did miss the start of his dancing, but caught the very end of it. Down at the bottom, there are links to my photos from these shoots that DO explain the scene they were there doing.

There was a scene shot the 2nd night with Grant Gustin as The Flash, Sarah Carter as Cicada, and Jessica Parker Kennedy as XS. Here are a couple takes of that scene being shot.

There was also a scene shot with Carlos Valdes as Vibe and Hartley Sawyer as Elongated Man.

The Flash was shooting scenes for episode 521 late yesterday at the back of the Law Courts in downtown Vancouver. A location they have used in the past (albeit slightly different part) as they were there for episode 209 when Mark Hamill used to still slip in for a year appearance. This was their 2nd night there in a row. You can find night 1 details and photos HERE.

On this night the crew and a large portion of the cast shot several scenes that mostly seemed like continuations of the scene shot the night before with a couple small changes.

The scenes shot this night included much of the same cast as the night before, but 1 addition, and 1 subtraction from the previous days work.
 
A daytime scene was shot with Tom Cavanagh as Sherloque Wells and Kimberly Williams Paisley as Renee Adler (photos of this scene will be added later). It had Sherloque running hastily down a street to catch up to Renee who was sitting on a bench. The pair talk for a couple minutes, with Sherloque at one point trying to seem to drag her away, before Renee pauses that idea, and the pair talk. During the talk, Sherloque shows Renee something, and the look on her face was 1 of "what? seriously?" but what was it that had a meta-human so amazed? Sherloque seemed to be showing her an extrapolator. Was he giving it to her? or, was he showing it to her to tell her he could come and see her at any time? Is Sherloque saying his last good byes to Earth 1? The pair moved to a scene up on the upper courtyard of the law building after that, which gave me time to go home and get a quick nap before the night scenes.

Once the night shoots started, they had 3 cast come in to shoot some scenes. Sometimes they were by themselves, sometimes with just 2 of them, and a few times with all 3 of them. Grant Gustin as The Flash, Jessica Parker Kennedy as XS and Sarah Carter as Cicada (or Shecada as many are calling her now). In the scene, it seems Flash & XS try to attack her with 1 of their lightning throws, and Shecada just stands there unfazed by it. She then does her classic jump away while Flash & XS seem to cower from the action. A couple interesting observations of Shecada in this scene was first of all, no respirator. Secondly, looks like she went and got her hair done. Now sporting tight braids on the side of her head. She also seems to be donning an almost all leather suit now. Lastly, she was carrying around a device that looked to me like the type of claw you see on 1 of those machines in malls where you can "win" a stuffed animal if you can pick it up with this 3 pronged "claw". What was it for? She never seemed to use it for anything really. Just carried it around.

UPDATE: 4:15 PM, March 23, 2018 - Photos of Sherloque & Renee night scene, as well as Vibe and Elongated Man scene & Shecada scene added below.

UPDATE: 12:00 PM, March 24, 2018 - Photos of Sherloque and Renee from daytime scene added at the bottom.

Some more solo Shecada scenes were done of her walking down the same stair case that Sherloque and Renee were just looking up at. I dont like to assume things, but the angle of it all strongly suggests its Shecada that Sherloque and Renee were fending off.

There was then a scene shot with Carlos Valdes as Vibe and Hartley Sawyer as Elongated Man. The pair breach in to the area where everything has been going on, walk down the stairs, and are confronted with something.  Vibe points a gun type device at the mystery item/person, before the two seem to be knocked down.

After Carlos and Hartley wrapped, they went back to shooting more scenes with Shecada. But the angle was mostly covered by equipment and crew, so I gave up on seeing what else there might have been.

Much like the first night, each cast member stopped to meet with some fans (although a couple of them were far more hurried in leaving than the day before). I managed more autographs form the cast this night, as Tom, Carlos, Hartley, Jessica & Kimberly all signed for me at various times of the day and night.

I brought up the fact that Carlos had to endure so many people asking him about his plans with the show at the Fan Expo, and his reaction was mostly what I would call awkward embarrassment. He seemingly laughed it off. I told him whatever he does next, I wish him luck, and he replied with a very sincere "thanks man" before he left. I think he was just relieved to not be asked again. This rumour has clearly made the rounds so much, I even had a crew member ask me the first night if it was true he was leaving.

As promised when I posted this blog post initially, here are photos from the daytime scene between Tom Canvagh and Kimberly Williams Paisley.

PLEASE LIMIT PHOTOS YOU POST ON YOUR ARTICLES, INSTAGRAM/TWITTER/OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA SITES POSTS TO FOUR MAXIMUM & credit this post (not just my twitter/instagram handle). Too many people in the last season & a bit have got comfortable with just posting ALL the photos & thus eliminating traffic from coming here. If you want these updates to continue this season, this has to STOP. I will be aggressively reporting those who opt to ignore this info from here on out for DMCA notices, or more.

The Flash was shooting scenes for season 5 in downtown Vancouver last night. They were in an area known as Plaza Of Nations, which during its heydays used to be an entertainment area with an outdoor concert venue, a couple clubs and a casino. Nowadays, its mostly just a couple large empty buildings and an empty courtyard where the outdoor concert venue was. While many productions have used the facilities over the years, I THINK this is the first time I can recall The Flash there.

Fair warning, the photos below are NOT the best quality. I never really found a good spot to shoot from. One side was bad because of the large white screens which gave everything a sort of "shadow" look, and even with all the brightening in the world, they still are pretty dark. On the other side.... just too much foot traffic in the way, plus the actual extras in the scene.

Early in the day the cast & crew shot inside the building with Grant Gustin dressed as Barry Allen. I DID NOT see any other cast confirmed to be in there, but I did see Jessica Parker Kennedy and her double around there, dressed as XS. Whether they were inside filming or not, I cant say. Later, the shoot moved outside, where a crowd of maybe 50 people all well dressed stood, staring at a building in shock and horror. Grant, now dressed as The Flash in his NEW SUIT, was there with XS in the crowd. Suddenly he darts off, leaving his daughter to watch the building, which was dressed up to look like Central City Picture News. Was Iris there? I cant say. I did not see her around, but she could have been there, there was a lot of background people, it was dark, and I was far enough away that outside of those in superhero constumes, couldnt really be sure who was there.

As for what I noticed about Grants new suit. Definitely sleeker, seemed less bulky. Seemed a bit brighter to me too, more in tune with how the John Wesley Shipp era Flash suit might have looked. Also, it looks like the top part of his head piece is separate from the rest. How it will look on scree, is still a mystery to be figured out. Guess we'll have to wait till October for that.

Based on the date, these SHOULD be for episode 4... but theres a small chance they are for episode 5.

The Flash airs on The CW in the U.S. on Tuesdays and to CTV in Canada starting October 9th, 2018
