Straight to Devon House, too.

Once again, no rest for the "yada, yada, yada." Shifted over from Haven Green (Black Mirror) to Devon House (yes, a code name.) On this day we filmed in Steveston. I had to take a pic of the downtown main street, so many memories of "Storybrooke" when I worked on Once Upon a Time.
 

.....flashback to the end of our Black Mirror episode. We spent 3 days at Riverview, including one day at the Center Lawn Building.
Ran an office run to the Haven Green offices at the Bridge Studios. Once again a reminder of the end of our run on The Good Doctor. This stage used to be the emergency ward of the hospital. That bay door at the end was the ER bay, wowsa.
Time to kill before my cast pick-up downtown, why not take a quick stroll around Granville Island?
The sun coming up under the Granville Bridge, pic.
Yay! Had a chance to work with Ed Rocker again. In my opinion, the number 1 background performer in Vancouver.
We spent the last 2 days filming at Allied Shipyards in North Vancouver. Hey, that's a lot of bosses on this film crew!
Lots going on here.
Near the set, are those props props?
Interested to know how they got a film crew in this small space.........
Close to wrapping on this evening, and I'm definately on the wrong side of the tracks.....
Morning moon over Mt. Baker  pic.
Ha! At the Tesla super-charger, charging at 1512 km/hr , never did figure out what that meant.
The railway bridge close to the shipyards pic.
Looking back towards set, soon to be a wrap on another show for me. What next?
Fellow Teamster cast driving peep Jordan is a little too close to the action.....
.....and I mean this wasp nest action, yikes!
It was a short 2 days off before we were back in action again. On this day, filming was close to the mighty Fraser River in Burnaby.

Looking up from the lower level of the Shangri-la hotel in Vancouver, where I spent a lot of time these past 3 weeks picking up and dropping off cast and execs.
We filmed one day out in Steveston at the historic Britannia Shipyards.
Now that's a poser!
What a gorgeous day it was.

....and the sun sets on day 5 of 9 days of filming additional photography for Old Guard 2. (It was originally filmed in Italy and Britain in 2022.) It was an honor to be Uma Thurman's driver while she was in Vancouver.
All that filming meant I had to listen to the baseball games on satellite radio.
The waiting for a booster fan, the dryer is blowing into a bucket of water, how frustrating, pic. (Don't get me started on the washer. Samsung never again.)
