Isabel Lucas and Shia at UPENN Frat Party June 14th, 2008

Film­ing con­tin­ues at UPENN, this time it’s a frat party involv­ing Shia LaBoeuf and new­comer Isabel Lucas, TLAMB has pro­vided a set report which describes the in-doors scene via J Fuller:

I was in one of the party scenes. I had to get fit­ted with jeans and a but­ton down dress shirt, we all were and Shia was wear­ing dark jeans and a black but­ton down shirt. In the scene which they shot 3 times from dif­fer­ent angles Shia was sit­ting on a old wooden chair when this girl [Isabel Lucas] in a green short dress (who I thought was an extra) was danc­ing in front of him and kept lean­ing into him. That’s it for the scene I was in but there is a lot more to it.

Action then moved out­side, to a scene involv­ing Bum­ble­bee — Isabel (char­ac­ter named Alice?), leans into the car to speak with Shia, before stomp­ing away. It also looks like there is “green goo” involved, at least that’s the impres­sion you get from the pic­tures. A sec­ond scene with Bum­ble­bee in motion was also filmed — with the car per­form­ing a 180 degree skid to line up per­fectly with the build­ing entrance (Drexel main build­ing), Jszack got a great video of this scene:

These are some absolutely fan­tas­tic shots from zack­lur show­ing Michael Bay, Isabel Lucas and Shia up close:

Transformers filming at UPENN begins June 12th, 2008

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.
