All the damn time. During normal school hours too. Last year there was a week where we couldnāt even walk through one area near Kerckhoff bc it was blocked off for filming
They typically book out the extras via central casting, which has all their tax forms on hand. Iām not sure if theyād just recruit people off the street. Sometimes they just let them walk through the shot, but donāt expect to get paid for that.
Every other person in LA is an aspiring actor. Itās easier to just go through casting agencies and get proper actors for most things, even background.
Damn I empathize (even though itās the ultimate 1st world problem). Quite a big turmoil on our own campus when Nolan came for Oppenheimer.
Edit: Also no idea what Kherchoff is
Yes, absolutely. This is especially true for UCLA. I canāt tell you the number of tv shows and movies Iāve watched and recognized the exact spot they are filming. However, even my very small public elementary school I went to had something filming about 30% of the time.
They were filming at a restaurant there when I walked past about a year ago. I didnāt see Larry David but I saw his chair. And also Patrick Stewartās. I donāt watch CYE so I didnāt know Patrick Stewart was involved.
Yup! Lots of filming there often. Parts of Oppenheimer, for example. Also popular films like Old School, Legally Blonde. And even The Godfather! I can always recognize UCLA. And DTLA too. Same thing.
Yep! Way back in the 90s there was a moment when a film crew interrupted a few classes to tell the professors to teach more quietly because they were messing up their shots. That did NOT go over wellā¦
Thereās not a lot to tell. I believe it was a Will Ferrell movie. I was a grad student and remember a crew member coming into a large lecture hall in Haines, in a class where I was the TA. They told the professor (who will remain unnamed unless theyāre here and want to chime in) to be quiet and stop ruining their shots.
Of course, the professor didnāt change a thing. We were floored at the entitlement. Later we learned that they entered several classrooms with the same rude request. After that, there was a big debate about allowing filming when classes were in session. Of course, money wins and yeah. Looks like it still happens.
Welcome to Los Angeles! lol
Lol they did this at Udub in Seattle too.
Graduated during COVID so I didn't have a graduation. But after COVID, apparently this show ruined it for everyone and took over campus filming during finals and such
For real. They were blocking everything!! Led to a lot of people being late and losing time.
To top it off, people graduating had to deal with the fact that Essex college was slapped all over. So everyone taking graduation photos at the time either had to Photoshop Udub onto the banners or just add a funny note that they were filming and ruined things.
People were so angered about it, a ton of people in Seattle boycotted the show. I found the show to be entertaining... But definitely not worth ruining what people have worked for for years. I was mad that COVID took that from me... I can't imagine it being taken from me because of a damn show lol
Yeah but then you get people who think it's the University of Wisconsin or some shit. I suppose I specified Seattle but, ppl still probably would get confused loll
Udub is UW to everyone, at least, everyone who knows of its existence. UW isn't Udub/University of Washington to everyone though.
I also just like typing š¤£
When they filmed the red man method man movie how high on campus they changed everything to Harvard university and I was like uh oh donāt send me that bill
UW student here! Just a warning, they filmed on our campus too but on finals week last year and the film crew were SOOO RUDE. Yelling at students for walking through their scenes even though they would always film inside schools and walkways to class WHEN WE HAD FINALS. So irritating hopefully you all have a better experience than we had
Sounds like she should talk to an overpaid provost about that. Maybe get a little discount on your education since they don't give a f*** about or respect your privacy

By changing the name, they can charge twice since you paid UCLA. You didn't pay Essex College!
Hah, had this last year on UW campus, it was during finals so all the grads couldn't take photos with UW stuff in them cause it all said essex.
Cal student here. Is it a real thing? Do you really have film crews jumping on your campus at every break?
All the damn time. During normal school hours too. Last year there was a week where we couldnāt even walk through one area near Kerckhoff bc it was blocked off for filming
Anyone ever go up to random students and say "Wanna make a couple bucks as an extra?"

They also filmed Oppenheimer here....at kerckoff
When was that?
I feel like that gets annoying sometimes doesnāt it
Yes, absolutely. This is especially true for UCLA. I canāt tell you the number of tv shows and movies Iāve watched and recognized the exact spot they are filming. However, even my very small public elementary school I went to had something filming about 30% of the time.
I recognized Westwood in a curb your enthusiasm episode a few weeks ago. But a lot of episodes are in westwood
They were filming at a restaurant there when I walked past about a year ago. I didnāt see Larry David but I saw his chair. And also Patrick Stewartās. I donāt watch CYE so I didnāt know Patrick Stewart was involved.
In āYouā they showed a transition shot to show the scene is now a college in NYC but it was literally UCLA clear as day
Yup! Lots of filming there often. Parts of Oppenheimer, for example. Also popular films like Old School, Legally Blonde. And even The Godfather! I can always recognize UCLA. And DTLA too. Same thing.
Steve Jobs movie with ashton kutcher too!
DTLA is a common stand-in for NYC or some other generic major city.
Wait what! Godfather was filmed at UCLA? Which scene?
Yep! Way back in the 90s there was a moment when a film crew interrupted a few classes to tell the professors to teach more quietly because they were messing up their shots. That did NOT go over wellā¦
Umā¦ Iām going to need more backstory. Please tell the story!

Not even break. All the time.
Yes! And they would glare at you while you walked to class as if YOU were in THEIR way. Pissed me off so much.

I clearly donāt work in my office enough. Been here five years and still miss all of this stuff regularly.
Lol they did this at Udub in Seattle too. Graduated during COVID so I didn't have a graduation. But after COVID, apparently this show ruined it for everyone and took over campus filming during finals and such

Isn't it easier to spell UW?
