I've been spending time driving the children around after school looking for film sets (bad daddy, yes). This week I saw a filming in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill for something called "Violet and Daisies" and something else in Brooklyn Heights on Remsen Street. I forgot the name of that one :(

Anyway, I strolled on set and asked the grips what you have to do to become a PA. They said that it's mostly a "who you know" deal. They each look out for each other in a closed network. PAs really don't get much money, either. Something like $150-$200 a day.

There's a lot of filming going on in those areas. I'll try to keep you guys abreast.

I wish my dad drove me around looking for film sets, but then again there's never filming going on close to my area.

LOL

My son is 11. He enjoys this stuff as much as me :) Brooklyn always has something filming, it's cheaper than Manhattan but looks just as good.
