Anyone ever heard of "Tomorrow when the war began"?
You have now. It's a book series based on an invasion of Australia by a foreign power and how 8 school children band up together to take them on in guerilla-type warfare.
Here's a synopsis of the book series:

Well, anyway, last week my mum got a visitor..it was the Assistant Location Manager, Edward Donovan.
He basically asked her if the balcony we have overlooking the street it's being filmed in could be used as a prop, as in, put shit up there to make the scene a bit more fitting. It's a really old colonial street that used to be a prime shipping spot back in the early 1800s, late 1790s, right next to a river that runs the length of Newcastle, NSW, Australia.

I'll be using my phone to periodically take pictures and video of this film as it progresses. I'll post the pics/vids as I take them.

I'll edit the post with more info as I get it, as the Assistant Location Manager has asked to speak to my mum at a later date. I'm also planning on making shitloads of noise so they come and pay me to stop, so to make that work I'm just hoping my mum doesn't sign any agreements to limit noise or anything.

Also, links for you non-beleivers:

None of those say anything about the location of the filming, so consider yourselves lucky.

What is messed up is your perception of IV:MP. Probably because they do not allow guys without balls there.

Lucky you. But damn it ain't one of those very, very popular movies.
Make yourself visible in somehow, I beg you! They cannot force you to leave, neither call the police or something.

There is a movie being filmed in my small town. I've taken part in it, don't know how it is called in English, but I've been one of the people that just 'are the background' :P. I've been walking on the streets just behind the main characters etc. Well it's some shitty Polish movie you'll never see, but still, they paid me just for walking, and it was a really nice experience to see how the whole film is being made. The filmmakers have been here for 2 weeks, and they're coming back in the fall, hope I'll be a background guy again :P.

For those who live in the UK, the program 'The Bill' gets filmed in my area, and many times of the year on my road  :)
