Flipped

For some reason the movie industry in moving some of its movie productions to Michigan. All Michiganders are super excited, hoping that it will boost our economy. As a result in the last six months two movie have been or are being filmed here that I am aware of, and one that we have been asked to be extras in(we could be extras cause we were going out of town for spring break). the first movie is called Betty Anne Waters and you can read about it here and here. A portion of this movie was filmed on the University of Michigan Campus, and is suppose to be release this year sometime. It is based on a true story.

The next movie is called Flipped. You can read about this movie here and here. The exciting thing about this movie is that a good portion of the movie is being filmed in my back yard. Ann Arbor pretty much has a park for every neighborhood and so everyone lives close to a park. Well the park that they picked is the one closest to our house. They have been working on the park for the last month molding it into what they want it to be for three days of filming (today through Wednesday). The movie is based off of a novel called 'Flipped' by Wendelin Van Draanen, and is scheduled to be release sometime next year.

I'll see if I can get some pictures today while they are filming, if not maybe after they are done filming for the day!!
