We had to get there for 6 p.m. to sign in, and were given orange wrist bands. There was a ton of waiting around but this paid off as at one point one of the directors approached our small group and asked if we would be willing to be stunt people! Of course we said yes! Along with about 7 other reeeeeeally tall guys, we were asked to be the assigned audience members that would hep Kat Dennings safely crowd surf. We practiced a few times on the director until she was happy we would be okay.
When it was time for the scene our small group was personally led into the already formed audience in front of the stage. The best bit was where the whole audience had to part in the middle to allow us to walk all the way up to the front! It was a really cool feeling....like when you're at Disney World walking down Main Street RIGHT before the parade starts and you feel like dancing and pretending you're part of it! No? just me? ok well anyway!
We could hear people asking "well why are THEY so special?" and another women saying "ohhh yes I bet they are from an agency!!" LOL was so funny!
From this point there was a lot of waiting, and practicing with the director doing the crowd surfing scenes! We were all told how important it was NOT to look at the camera, and just dance and have fun! They taped us all dancing to the band Paper Route, then it was time to bring the actors out!! Me and Natasha could hardly see anything due to the assigned tall guys in front of us LOL! But we caught glimpses of Chad, and took some very questionable blurry pictures! He's doing a peace sign and looking back in the first picture, this may help you find him! LOL
Then came our crowd surf scene! Kat was to be carried over and placed down just behind us. Was great seeing her so up close, she seemed really lovely. She thanked us and asked if she squished anybody on the way lol! I caught her checking out my Hello Kitty bag, but before i could pluck up the courage to say anything the next scene was ready. We must have carried her over about 7 times in total, so I'm really hoping we are in the film!
We were able to stay where we were while they filmed the 'bad guy' looking for her amongst the crowd, and also while they did some close up crowd shots. Although, I wasn't very happy when the camera guy actually leant his camera ON my head to keep it steady....hadn't he ever heard of a tripod?! thanks LOL!
In total we were there for around 8 hours! Our feet were killing, but both Natasha and I won prizes, so that made up for it! We also spotted Corbin Bleu taking photos with fans nearby, we were too exhausted to get up so I just took some photos from afar.
Heres the bag of swag I won, pretty cool!!!
