Shoot
Right after working on the film
A Many Splintered Thing
down in Venice Beach the day before, my calling service notified me with details regarding my working back on
Glee
again
(my having worked on the season one
The Rhodes Not Taken
episode).
This would be my first time back on one of my favourite shows.
While the scene was set in New York "in the dead of winter," thankfully the calltime was 5pm, giving me the day to go up to my storage unit to find some sort of wintery coat, and still have time to relax before heading to at what was hinted as "downtown," which turned out in reality to be MacArthur Park.
was on 8th and Lake; I arrived at 3:40pm as we'd been warned there'd be no meal served so I'd gotten myself some food nearby first.
While I was first at crew parking, it was momentary, a few people showed up rather quickly,
including but not limited to
Brent Hunt
that our mutual friend
Tad
had Facebook Friend-Suggested, so we already "knew" each other.
Along with his assistant Tiffany, 2nd AD
Shea
showed up, both impressed and slightly amazed we were all so early, and having to confess the vouchers had not yet arrived.
Soon enough all sixty-nine of us were in the extended line.
The vouchers arrived around 5:15 or so, and mistakenly I did not fill it out beyond my name, and wardrobe hangs onto vouchers when they provide wardrobe bits, and I was given a scarf and a hat.
While the first with a voucher and first at wardrobe, filling it all out at the end of the night put me at line's end, ironically enough.
The filming location was
Langer's Deli;
while it is well known I never reveal storylines other than indications where I might be visible.
The scene is Kurt
(Chris Colfer)
and Burt
(Mike O'Malley)
at the diner's counter.
I was paired up with a lovely young woman named Elizabeth, sitting in a booth at the far end of the diner.
As they'd done in previous set*ups, Brett and a few others are led to a booth at which they sit
(about halfway between the camera and Elizabeth's my booth).
Later as from Brett's booth and beyond was blocked by equipment, anyone from the previous shot no longer visible were Infinity-Loop Pedestrians outside the diner.
The episode
(410),
titled
Glee, Actually,
was scheduled to air
13 December 2012;
so I scheduled to post this after it aired, despite "not so much" being involved with the scene.
Back at "base camp" I retrieved my voucher and filled out the rest of it so I could be signed out, after which catching the Red Line back to Hollywood.
