The cast and crew returned from shooting in Sterling for two days to wrap up shooting in Edinburgh, Friday night and Saturday morning before moving to the next location (possibly back to London). Here are the photos (sorry about the quality, extreme low-light conditions)
If you want to find their shooting location, just follow the trucks. I stumbled across these on my way home.
Horse
They were filming on a street that ran beneath the street in the photo. So they had lighting crews set up above the set.
The set of Burke and Hare from above.
Serious lighting. I felt bad for the guy who had to stand in this cherry picker, in the rain, with a very hot, electric lamp.
This tavern is like a VIP club, with a 19th century bouncer that allows Andy Serkis and Simon Pegg inside.
Crew members were running umbrellas to and away from extras as they tried to keep the detailed costumes dry.
Getting ready for the shoot.
In this scene, Serkis and Pegg are in line to get into this exclusive tavern. The bouncer lets them in as horse drawn carriages and extras pass by.
Wider shot of the scene playing out (camera can’t zoom while recording)
I know where they’re shooting tomorrow, so keep checking the blog for updates.
