Posted by Covina Guy over on FF~ Thanks CG!;)

Good evening everyone.
My first report from Rosvina. Sorry its so late but its been busy.

I'm reporting blind so if I'm repeating anyone please excuse me.

They have been filming at Toby's all day. The first couple of scenes involved Kyle and Jessie talking while Kyle is working on a car. Another scene involved a van pulling up and two men getting out and dragging someone into the van. (I'm not going to say any more about this because I'm not sure exactly what is happening and I don't want to spoil anyone who doesn't want to be.)

After this scene was filmed Majandra showed up around the set just riding a bike in the area.

I had to leave for a while to do some work for my boss and while I was gone Jason came to the set and came over and signed autographs. SilverFox was there for that and will have to report on that when she gets home.

A short time after I returned SilverFox saw Shiri and asked her to come over...which she did. While Shiri was posing for pictures and signing autographs Nick andf Majandra came over. The three of them spent between 15 and 20 minutes talking and joking with people and posing for pictures...lots of pictures.

All during this time and for much of the day the local UPN station had one of their reporters there with a cameraman. They interviewed the cast, they interviewed the fans (including Silverfox and FondaRoswell) and we found out was they are putting together a three part report on the show that will air on Tuesday nights after the show for the next 3 weeks. I'll tape all 3 parts so we can all see it at the party if we want to.

The most fun part of the afternoon was that while Shiri was with us, Spam arrived. He got a chance to talk with her and get some pictures with her...then he was asking for some nitro.

That's it for me for now, they should be breaking for lunch in about 10 minutes so I'll be heading back after 7:00 and will hopefully have another report late tonight. I do know that they will be filming at two more locations tonight...in front of Jessie & Isabel's apartment and on a side street. I hope to have something else of interest to report later.

BTW...I spoke with my friend and learned that they will be back in Rosvina next Tuesday. From what I learned about the next episode it sounds like it could be very interesting

Lihara~ spam (screenname I believe) is one of the Roswell fans, who I think lives a few hours away from the set. Him and Covina Guy(who I believe lives in the same town) and a few others always go to location when they are filming to get some great pictures of the cast & crew. Anyway, I believe in one of the pictures on the other thread it shows spam with Shiri, you can find the guys over on the OTO thread on FF.. that's where they post.

Also, CG, just posted this and thought I would post it. So maybe next week we will have some more great photos.:grin

Hello again
I just spoke with my friend from the show and the tentative shooting schedule for episode 17 has been released. As of now, they will be filming in Rosvina next Tuesday and Wednesday (which would be days 3 & 4 on an 8 day schedule.) This could change slightly but I think we have to assume that the show will not be in town while the majority of the OTO's are here.

What are the bad things that you've heard and what are the good thing too please don't live me on the edge.
I hope Jason is not treating Shiri like @#%$.

Lihara~ I'm sorry, I wouldn't want to keep you on the edge.. the stuff I've heard is only from posters.. mainly alot of it was said last year over on Rams I think.. some say he did treat her like sh!t, others say it's only rumor. I just meant I've never actually heard of any first hand accounts or so forth on the issue. I know that doesn't help much but like you, I would love to know the truth behind the matter.;)

Posted by Covina Guy~ Thanks CG for the update! :wavey

Report from yesterday's shooting in Rosvina.

Call time was 2:00 pm (12 hours after they wrapped the previous night.) and everyone on the crew was dreading the day because it was going to be an extremely long one. They were unable to complete all of the work on the roadblock scene the night before and thus after they finished the regularly scheduled work for yesterday they had to go back to the roadblock and finish there. They were hoping to wrap by 5:00 this morning. (Also they never got to Nick's scene so as of now that scene was cut and Nick arrived in Rosvina around 11:00 Tuesday night and never got to work.)

The first 2 scenes of the day involved Jason, Shiri, Mary Ellen and Garrett in front of the Evans' house. They took about three hours to complete the various set-ups of these scenes. (The second scene involved Ma & Pa Evans driving away from the house and the locations manager had to come over and ask people whose cars would be in the shot to move and two of the people who had to move their cars were Mr. Bear and SilverFox. Neither of them could convince the show that the street around the Evans house wouldn't be empty and thus their cars should remain where they were. Oh well, they can't join Spam on the list of OTO's whose cars have appeared in the show.)

When these two scenes were completed, Shiri was released for the day and Katie and Adam arrived. The rest of the shooting at the Evans house were interior shots. Jason finished his final scene of the day sometime after 9:00 and slipped into a van and left without anyone seeing him leave. They worked at the house until 11:45 (with an hour for lunch at 8:00) and then Katie, Adam, Garrett and Mary Ellen were released for the day.

After that the crew was heading back to the roadblock scene but since the rest of the night's work was only going to involve stunt people and extras (and because we were cold and tired) the OTO's packed it up and called it a night.

During the day Jason was able to come over to the crowd for a few minutes. He signed some things and posed for some pictures (including one with Sprinkles who was still shaking from the experience an hour later and couldn't remember that Jason put his arm around her) and SilverFox videotaped the entire thing. (I'll be making a copy of the tape today so it can be seen at the OTO party.) Unfortunately he only had a couple of minutes until he was called back to work but he promised to return later which of course he did. However, the second time it was after dark and (as it sometimes seems to happen to the cast when they approach the fans at night) he was swarmed by people and thus wasn't able to spend much time then either.

Katie and Adam stopped for a few minutes before they left for the night but the crew kept calling them to the vans to leave so they didn't have a lot of time either. LTL had printed up a hard copy of the “Saga of the Oogly Lady” and before the vans pulled out she was able to give it to Mary Ellen who we saw was sharing it with others in the van as they left.

General information learned yesterday. The show normally shoots on an 8-day schedule. As of Tuesday morning that was the plan for episode 18 and there were no location days expected to be shot in Rosvina. As of last night, there has been a rewrite...now the episode will be shot on a 10 day shooting schedule, 6 days of which will be shot on various locations, two of which will be done in Rosvina. There is a chance that they will be back in town the end of next week but most likely it will be early the following week.

The one thing that disappointed me yesterday was that my friend ended up not working and he was bringing me the item that I was planning on giving everyone at the OTO party. Oh well, next time.

I'm off to work on my pictures (I got some good ones of Jason and Shiri that the Dreamers will love) hopefully I'll have them uploaded in an hour or so. I'll let you know when they are done

Here is CG's original post.
I want to let you all know that although the show won't be in Rosvina any more this season, they were on a location in Pasadena today and my friend invited me out to watch some filming on the closed set and said I could bring a friend. He also knew that SilverFox was still in town and let me invite her also. Since Echo had had such a rotten week and had mentioned that she might come back down if they had filmed in Rosvina again, I invited her to join me and she accepted. (I was invited to this last Wednesday but asked to keep it quiet.)

The episode is titled “Graduation” and what they were filming today was part of the actual graduation. When my friend first slipped Echo and me in we were on the stage, looking at the audience, about 10 feet from the podium where Jason addressed the class (we were behind 2 black drapes.) I was there for about 5 or 10 minutes (time enough for them to shoot one take of the scene they were working on ) and my friend got asked by at least three people (including the AD's) what I was doing there. To keep my friend from getting into any trouble, Echo and I went back outside. SilverFox arrived about that time and the three of us sat around and talked and waited to see if my friend could find another way to get us in.

Nothing happened until they broke for lunch. We felt my friend probably wasn't going to be able to get us in so I called my friend to let him know we were leaving. He had finally gotten a little time to himself and since it was lunch break he asked if we wanted to at least see the empty stage. Of course we said yes so he came and got us and walked us in. After taking a few pictures it was getting close to the end of lunch and I mentioned to my friend that it was too bad that my friend came down all the way from Portland and only got to see a few minutes of filming. My friend got an idea. We both knew that everyone would instantly recognize me if I slipped back in but my friend thought he could get Echo and SilverFox in unrecognized right at the end of lunch. And he proceeded to do this. I left and came home and he got the ladies up into the balcony where they were able to quietly sit down and watch 2 hours of filming without anyone
noticing them.

I met up with them in Rosvina this evening and heard about their experience. They had a great time. They will both be returning home tomorrow and said that they will accounts of their day, but they have agreed that they WILL NOT give any spoilers of what we learned about the episode from watching the filming.

I also wanted to let you all know that my friend asked me today exactly where he could find the OTOs. (He has met a number of you and thinks you are all wonderful. We gave him the address and he says that after he wraps his work on the show next week he his going to come and at least lurk here and possibly say hello. As those of you who have met him already know, my friend is a great guy and will fit right in with this group.
