Hi Alana. I don’t know where you can find out. For me, I usually walk the dog down into that part of Steveston so I can’t help running into them if they are filming on location. They usually spend the morning setting up the story fronts , then spent the afternoon and evenings filming. Sometimes they setup late afternoon and then film the next day. If you reply to this message and click on the ‘Notify me of follow-up comments by email’, I can reply back to your post if I notice them setting up in the future. One of the crew members said they average 1 – 2 shots per month in Steveston. They also shot in Fort Langley but I think not as frequently.

I’ll keep an eye for it if I see Henry ….. to date I personally have not seen him. It looks like it could be a royal crown to me … a plausible hint of his lineage to the throne considering he is Prince Charming and Snow White’s grandson.

Here’s a photo, but too far away to tell:

You’re welcome Jeff. You and Colleen have a great website and I’m glad I can help out.
Yes, we literally almost bumped into Jennifer Morrison as she was getting ready for her scene in front of Mr. Gold’s Pawnbroker.
Hi Manny. I haven’t re-watched the episodes so I’m not sure what specific scene you are referring to.
But late last spring my wife and I were walking through Steveston with the dog and we were about to cross the street heading east towards the Pieces store when we noticed a line of people along the west side of the building (later we found out they were paid ‘extras’). When we were half way across the street we noticed a woman cueing these actors to round the corner to walk east down past Pieces. At the same time we noticed they were filming at the Cannery Cafe with the Pieces side of the street in the background. We stopped and was about to turn around when the woman waved us through. As we were walking past the Cannery Cafe a car drove down the street westbound on the director’s cue. The woman was interspersing the lined up ‘extras’ with the regular crowd traffic walking down Moncton Street. A billboard sign had this legal sounding disclaimer basically saying one was entering a film shoot area and that the production could freely use shots of you without compensating you.
I’m pretty sure it’ wasn’t the OUAT shoot because I can’t remember the changed signage on the storefronts but I wasn’t really paying attention and hadn’t even heard of OUAT at that time so I’m not a 100% sure. I’m thinking it might have been a shoot for ‘The Secret Circle’ series.
One of the advantages living here is that there are many TV and movie productions have shot in this area and it is very interesting to see the process of film making outside on location. On one occasion, our neighbour’s house across the street was used for a ‘made for TV’ movie and we had front row seats from our front window watching them film.
My kids and wife and my niece have participated as extras in film shoots in the past but not I to date … at least not knowingly.
