Film­ing has now started at the Uni­ver­sity of Penn­syl­va­nia and you can be sure reports and pic­tures galore shall start pour­ing in shortly, much as they did in Beth­le­hem, PA.

First up, a local web­site, “Duel­ing Tam­pons” (I don’t know — best not to ask), man­aged to cap­ture a shot of Shia LaBoeuf up close and per­sonal, sport­ing a green “recy­cling” t-shirt:

TLAMB and Fade­Sil­ver­Screen have both posted pic­tures from film­ing yes­ter­day (at the Quad) and today (at the Cas­tle). One set of images comes via BP, show­ing the setup at UPENN, stat­ing that film­ing at the Quad lasted most of the day — almost exclu­sively with Shia LaBoeuf, though it has also been con­firmed that Kevin Dunn (Sam Witwicky’s dad) was on set — as pic­tures from Fad­ed­Sil­ver­Screen reveal. Images from today show Shia dressed in blue as he strolls past the cam­era as shoot­ing begins at The Cas­tle. Michael Bay shows up at the end to greet and sign HD-DVDs for wait­ing fans.
