We arrived at the Prescott St. house about 10:30. There was already lots of activity. Electrical cabling ran up and down several streets to generators a block away from the house. All the photos from 3 days of stopping by are here.
As we stood to watch, one of the crew we'd seen before came up to talk with us. He said told us the director would arrive in about a half hour and then the actors would be here about a half hour after that to film some exterior shots. We conversed for about an hour on a wide range of subjects.
The exterior set of the house was fully dressed for filming. Compare this image from Monday to how the house looked today:
Once the director arrived, there was even more activity. There we so many crew, most of them standing around. Sound equipment arrived and then the big cameras. They set up some equipment in the driveway next to the Grimm house and used that garage to get out of the rain, too.
They started to block out the shots using stand-ins for David (Nick) and Bitsy (Juliette), seen here on the porch. From this image, I now know this is Season 3, episode 22.
Then a small Mercedes bus arrived. I correctly predicted it transported the actors. Here is David (Nick) arriving:
For the next hour or so they filmed Nick and Juliette exiting the house, walking down the steps, getting into her car and driving away. The head of security talked to me about photographing and said I couldn't show any of these photos of the actors doing the scene...... at least until the episode has aired. So I will post those later. And I have a pretty big spoiler that one of the crew let slip. But I also won't share that yet.
Silas (Monroe) showed up to hang out with the crew! He's in the red jacket:
Despite the pouring rain during part of the time spent on the sidewalk across the street, it was fun watching the process of filming.
