More Movie News

Information Services released an announcement today about filming which will affect the downtown campus:
I have just been made aware that there will be filming that will affect our campus beginning today. It?óÔé¼Ôäós an action adventure film called ?óÔé¼?ôTwelve Rounds?óÔé¼?Ø. The memo University Police received this morning from LSU Interim Hospital states that the film company will be preparing University Hospital from Friday, April 25 – Monday, April 28. The film company will be shooting nightly from Tuesday April 29 – Friday May 2. They say there will be intermittent traffic flow used around the hospital. Most of the work at the hospital will be done inside and on the helipad, but there will be some exterior work on Tuesday during the day and evening. There will be a simulated explosion done outside on Tuesday in the late afternoon.

No parking signs will be posted by the City from Friday, April 25 at 5:00 a.m. – Friday, May 2 at 7:00 p.m. in the following locations:
1900, 2000 and 2100 blocks of Perdido Street
400, 500, and 600 blocks of Bolivar Street
1900, 2000, and 2100 blocks of Gravier Street (with street closures overseen by NOPD)
500 block of S. Prieur Street
400 and 500 blocks of S. Johnson Street (with street closures overseen by NOPD)

Which means no street parking this weekend in front of the Library’s building. Can’t wait for that explosion on Tuesday!
