July 6, 201212 yr National media in Downtown Cleveland today. CBS Buzz tour will be in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame today: http://www.cbs.com/buzz/
July 24, 201212 yr Cleveland reference in The Dark Knight Rises: The Gotham Police Chief was speaking to another person about Commissioner Gordon's mental state. When asked about Gordon's family (iirc), the chief states, "His wife moved to Cleveland with the kids." That got a nice chuckle out of the theater crowd
July 24, 201212 yr I noticed that to! Has anyone noticed there seem to be a lot of Cleveland references in films? I noticed it again recently when watching 'House Party.' Play's parents are out of town visiting family in Cleveland, which is why they have the party at his house. There are plenty other examples though.
July 25, 201212 yr Not sure if this is where it belongs...but something with the food network is happening all over town this week and i'm not sure what it is. evidence #1: https://twitter.com/ohiocitytim/status/227576252637278208 Food Network will be shooting at Palookaville Chili Tuesday, 1-4 p.m (july 23rd) #2 https://www.facebook.com/ABCtheTavern/posts/407059822684671 Food Network will be joining/filming us at ABC today.

July 26, 201212 yr ^Nope; Campbell's at the West Side Market (and their W. 25th store) posted that it was for Jeff Mauro's show 'Sandwich King'. clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
July 26, 201212 yr They were probably shooting more than one show since Marc Summers was in town and he doesn't have any credits on IMDB for Sandwich King.
July 26, 201212 yr I was in Palookaville Chili last week and the owner mentioned to me while he was preparing my food that he was getting ready for the Food Network to come in later to check out his place to potentially be on a show. I asked him which show and he said he thinks it's a new show in which they have a limited budget and 24 hours to check out a bunch of less expensive restaurants in a specific city. Apparently the "interview" went well which I'm glad to hear because I can't believe they don't get more business having as good of chili as they do.
July 26, 201212 yr Someone was filming on East 4th yesterday. They had a guy holding a "Release" sign stating that by walking down the street, you release them to use your image. How is this possible? It's a public street, and I just want to walk to my home!
July 26, 201212 yr I imagine they have a permit from the city for use of the street for filming and that gives them the right for that type of consent release. Also, is all of E4th still public ROW? I don't think I was paying attention to such things when the redevelopment was in the works.
July 26, 201212 yr Someone was filming on East 4th yesterday. They had a guy holding a "Release" sign stating that by walking down the street, you release them to use your image. How is this possible? It's a public street, and I just want to walk to my home! For the most part, if you're in a public place you generally placing yourself in the public eye, and subject to being recorded. Having you sign a release is an extra layer of protection for the production company, if any contest to their actions should arise. This better explains: When do you need to use a release form? Laws covering the use of images of individuals frequently differ based on jurisdiction - from country to country and state to state. While there is no absolute rule of law you must follow, there is one absolute rule of thumb: If you plan to use a person's image for commercial purposes, you need to get a signed video release form from that individual. There are some exceptions to this rule. For example, if you shoot a crowd scene of people in a public area, you generally do not need a video release form from every person in the crowd. By being in a public area, we all give up our 'reasonable expectation of privacy.' However, this does not mean you can go out and shoot images of identifiable people in public, and then sell those images for commercial use (e.g., in a clip art library). If you do, this could be considered an invasion of privacy (in some states), and you could be opening yourself up to an expensive lawsuit.
August 31, 201212 yr Watching "You live in What?" on HGTV and they are about to feature a Cleveland home.
September 20, 201212 yr Hot Sauce Williams is on "Man vs. Food". Their Polish boy is being featured. EDIT: Looks like this is an all Cleveland episode. Now they are at Melt in Lakewood!

September 20, 201212 yr Rumors in Little Italy of a crime story being filmed here in Cleveland: http://www.italianamericanbrotherhoodclub.com/
September 20, 201212 yr cleveland featured on two upcoming food network shows Thursday, September 20, 2012 Cleveland will get its close-up on the Food Network in two very visible ways this week. On Sunday's airing of The Great Food Truck Race (9 p.m.), the popular show hosted by Tyler Florence rolls into Cleveland, with stops throughout town. The show was taped this past summer. A new show called $24 in 24, hosted by Jeff Mauro, will premier on Monday, September 24, at 10:30 p.m. with multiple stops in Cleveland. The show originally was slated to air later in the season but was moved up to the premier, presumably because of its quality. http://www.freshwatercleveland.com/inthenews/foodnetworkincle092012.aspx
September 22, 201212 yr BBC World Update reported out of Cleveland today with Dan Damon: http://castroller.com/Podcasts/BbcWorldUpdate/3020778 RRHOF starts are 29:45

I'm sure they will show what a great city it is (judging by the ?) but I hate that phrase. Anyway I look forward to both shows.
September 25, 201212 yr Cool story about the extras on the DVD/Blu Ray of The Avengers and how Cleveland is shown and discussed in a good light. http://www.cleveland.com/movies/index.ssf/2012/09/blu-ray_extras_on_marvels_the.html#incart_river_default
September 26, 201212 yr My nephew and I watched The New Normal. They lead family is from Cleveland and supposedly gays strut straight down the middle of Buckeye Rd. as proud as Gay peacocks! Watch the first five minutes of the pilot episode! http://www.nbc.com/the-new-normal/video/pilot/1415027
September 27, 201212 yr ^They were in Bowling Green. They start off in Bowling Green, but then move to California. I wonder if they will keep the Ohio connection as part of the show. On another note, I watched the Great Food Truck Race episode that featured Cleveland and the new show 24 in 24 that was in Cleveland. Both shows showed Cleveland in a positive light and on 24 in 24 the city was filmed beautifully. Lots of emphasis on Ohio City. I would never watch either show again, but Cleveland did come off a winner. I wonder if it will do anything for the local food tourism business?
September 27, 201212 yr Cool! I was a big fan of Al Roker when he was here in Cleveland in the early-1980s. I was pissed when he left (1984, I think). "In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage." -- John Steinbeck
September 27, 201212 yr ^^ Great photo, mrclifton! I saw the broadcast; as a Market regular, my favorite part was when one of the vendors was doing their routine. This guy was pushing his cart of goods and the TV crew was right in the path. Sure enough, instead of going around, the guy matter-of-factly finaggles his way through and kept on going - and of the anchors said "Yep, folks this is a *working* market - not just a place for tourists!" :-D clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
September 27, 201212 yr This reminds me of an idea: build a tv studio space adjacent to the market. It would be beneficial for both local and guest chefs/brewers/venders/farmers/etc. to better engage the public. Make it iconic. It helps local and national media promote the city and adds another dimension to the market experience.

Who uses this studio? Why is it built there? What infrastructure around it can be currently used?

September 27, 201212 yr I agree with the general concept assuming it's internet based and you DO NOT put a TV/Media veteran in charge (advising/assisting sure). Although I don't know that the market itself makes sense unless there was suitable vacant space that couldn't be utilized by something more exclusively relevant to the market. Basically an IP Public Access Station. It could be used by Bloggers, local politicians, community activists, community organizations, etc.

The infrastructure to build a studio (not including maintenance or staff) is expensive and how do you pay for it? There has to be some sort of advertising or sponsorship going on. There are some creative ideas I can think off, but with all the studio spaces downtown in top notch function, is it needed?
September 27, 201212 yr I finally got around to watching the Avengers. The scenes from E 9th subbing for NYC you can pick out with a keen eye. But the scenes from public square and the courthouse, subbing for Stuggarts, are unmistakeable.

Who uses this studio? Why is it built there? What infrastructure around it can be currently used? Why needed? Function? Connect audiences/shoppers with highlighted food products. Provides exposure, maybe market testing opportunities. Renting out the space to restauranteurs or t.v. production could be profitable. Possibly charge public for admission. Who uses? Local and guest chefs/brewers/venders/farmers/Monsanto/etc. Local or national media opportunities. An independent venue will be more hospitable than an existing bar or restaurant. Why there? This is the most important aspect. WSM is our premier food district. It's iconic and special enough that it could and should grow even more as a destination. Unlike just another bar or restaurant, the concept adds another dimension to the neighborhood; it's different. The critical mass of the Market District allows for restauranteurs/brewers outside the neighborhood (and region) to profile their products to a largely already existing audience. What infrastructure? Not sure; still lots of unused space along W. 25th. TV production requirements have never been more affordable.
September 28, 201212 yr Captain America sequel to be filmed in Cleveland in 2013 By Michael Sangiacomo, The Plain Dealer on September 28, 2012 at 10:40 AM, updated September 28, 2012 at 11:15 AM CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Avengers had so much fun blowing up Cleveland last year that at least one of the superheroes is coming back next year to do it again. "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" will be partially filmed in Cleveland some time in 2013 for release in April, 2014, by Walt Studios. It will be directed by Cleveland brothers Anthony and Joe Russo, who directed "Welcome to Collinwood." The Greater Cleveland Film Commission Friday confirmed earlier reports that the film would be shot in Cleveland. http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2012/09/captain_america_sequel_to_be_f.html
September 28, 201212 yr Awesome that they're going to get a big chance to break out of comedy after the shakeup with Community.

October 4, 201212 yr Looks like Fox Business will be spending a lot of time in Cleveland the next couple of days... DDR Corp., Forest City Enterprises CEOs to appear on Fox Business broadcasts from Cleveland Michelle Jarboe McFee, The Plain Dealer By Michelle Jarboe McFee, The Plain Dealer CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Executives from the region's best-known real estate companies will appear on Fox Business Network this week, during a two-day special broadcasting from downtown Cleveland. Daniel Hurwitz, the president and chief executive officer of DDR Corp., is part of a 3 p.m. block today, along with Terry Stewart of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum; Marcus Glover, general manager of the Horseshoe Casino Cleveland; and Cleveland Indians President Mark Shapiro. http://www.cleveland.com/business/index.ssf/2012/10/ddr_corp_forest_city_enterpris.html#incart_river_default
October 4, 201212 yr ^ I was just walking through the lobby here at work and saw a live segment from in front of the rock and roll hall of fame. They were talking about the debate and that Ohio is sixth in job creation. It looked like a beautiful day up there!

They were talking about the debate and that Ohio is sixth in job creation. It looked like a beautiful day up there! Not sure if you're aware, but there's been some good articles on how John Kasich's bright and sunny outlook has been a thorn in the side of the Romney "doom in Ohio" campaign message. Being a recovering Fox insider, I wonder if the Governor will find some time onscreen?
October 23, 201212 yr For some reason, I had no idea this movie actually takes place in Cleveland. 'Fun Size': Cleveland gets its close-up in new comedy starring Victoria Justice Published: Sunday, October 21, 2012, 6:00 PM Updated: Monday, October 22, 2012, 2:24 PM Clint O'Connor, The Plain Dealer By Clint O'Connor, The Plain Dealer Cleveland's cinema history has identity issues. While several films have been shot here, few are set here. The ones set here are usually not shot here. "Major League," the beloved baseball movie celebrating the Indians, was made mostly in Milwaukee. The holiday classic "A Christmas Story," which was partially filmed here and has a museum here, is set in Indiana. "Kill the Irishman," about the explosive exploits of Cleveland gangster Danny Greene, was made in Detroit. Even the latest rash of film shoots, thanks to the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Credit and the Greater Cleveland Film Commission, have not exactly been Ohio travelogues. The majority of "Alex Cross" was filmed here with Cleveland masquerading as Detroit. "Marvel's The Avengers" staged its major action scenes here, but Cleveland was playing New York and Germany. "Fun Size" trumps them all. Shot entirely in Greater Cleveland, it is also set entirely in Greater Cleveland. In the new comedy starring Victoria Justice and Chelsea Handler, which opens nationwide Friday, we see downtown, the skyline, the majesty of the lake, the beauty and character of neighborhoods in Lakewood, Cleveland Heights and Beachwood and the rumpled urban charm of Collinwood, among other locales. http://www.cleveland.com/moviebuff/index.ssf/2012/10/fun_size_cleveland_gets_its_cl.html
October 24, 201212 yr This is a movie that I would normally not go to a theater to see but may do so since they filmed some scenes just a block from my house (plus lots of Coventry). They also staged at the school next to my house. I could not believe the number of huge trailers that sat there running all night. It must have cost a fortune. They were there for about 2-3 weeks, broke everything down (went to another part of town I assume) and then brought every thing back later for another couple of weeks. Coordinating all of this has to be something else.
October 24, 201212 yr They shot at my street for a couple of nights/days and paid my neighbors to let them block their driveways with the trailers.
October 24, 201212 yr Yes this is the one that was being shot during that same busy period as Alex Cross and Avengers.... Also (I believe) the movie that they painted the old fast food places in mid-town all those wild colors for. Lots of scenes in Cleveland Hts.. Even some scenes on streets in Lakewood. Has the girl from my show suburgatory in it (red head)
