So I decided to drive up to Kalama last night so I could stalk the set and watch filming today after being cut as an extra. I was desperate to get near the set and see all the actors. Well, my wish came true today because it was a breeze to get on set and quietly watch the filming. Nobody minded I was there as long as I stayed out of the way. I got to see pretty much all the main actors, EXCEPT Robert, who I of course wanted to see the MOST. But they were filming school scenes from the day where Edward doesn't come cuz he's avoiding Bella. It sucks that I picked the ONE DAY he wasn't filming outside. A teacher told me he had been there for filming every day except for today...just my luck Well, I still got to see all the other Cullens up close, as well as Bella, Mike, Tyler, Jessica, Eric, and all their stand-ins. They were filming some school parking lot stuff where the Cullens (minus Edward) drive into their parking spots and walk into school, and then a scene where Bella parks her truck and it backfires. I also sat in on the volleyball scene where Bella is all awkward and then hits Mike Newton in the head. It was so cool to watch the filming, but oh my god, it takes FOREVER to get like a 20 second scene. As for the actors, I was watching them ALL DAY (like 9 hours), and they all seemed really friendly and good-natured to me. Kristen was quiet and serious, but she joked around some and talked freely with the extras in the volleyball scene. She smiled at me and a couple other people in the bleachers, and she played basketball with Mike during the breaks. Kellan and Jackson both laughed a lot, and acted kinda goofy, in a cute way. Kellan had this huge bag of hard-boiled eggs that he carried around and ate. Nikki surprised me because she was very friendly with the crew, and greeted everyone cheerily when she arrived on set. Ashley was quiet and composed, she and jackson hung around a lot together, and were quite touchy-feely (probably just staying in character). There's tons of other info, but my mind is on overload, so I'll just post links to the pictures I took. I could have taken a lot more photos, some really up close, but I didn't want to annoy the actors or crew. I also took a video of the Cullens in their cars and walking to the school entrance, but I have to figure out how to get the video from my camcorder to the computer first! Here are the pics:
