New Moon Forks High Vancouver Set

If the set dressing that has been built at a school in Vancouver is any indication, the new set for Forks High for New Moon has been decided. A user at IMDB, The_Merc_With_A_Mouth, has posted several reports on a film being shot at her school. Increasingly, the clues point to the movie being New Moon–

Well, there’s a movie gonna be filmed at my school, but they are keeping it secret.

So far they have closed off half of the cafeteria and added giant blue pillars and they have changed the hallway lights into a light blue tint. I go to [redacted] in Vancouver Bc, exactly where it says they are filming.

Even more proof is that they are not telling any students what movie it is, which means they are trying to keep it secret(perhaps because its a big movie, like maybe, New Moon?).

Later on, she found even more proof that the movie is in fact New Moon–

Well I have further proof. They have added round tables.

Another thing they have done is add country flags in the Cafeteria.

Anyways I have 100% proof they are filming New Moon here.

There was a shirt that said “Forks High” That they put into the trophy case at the front, but when I saw, the crew member quickly hid it with a purple blanket and covered it up, then they locked the case. Its like they were… hiding something. lol.

I’m not going to share the link, in deference to the school from being overwhelmed by fans, and as such please do not post the specific location in the comments if you know it. [thanks, TwiCrack!]

UPDATE: Twilight-Gossip seems to have found another location where they’ll be shooting the exterior shots of Forks High in Vancouver for New Moon–take a look at her picture from today:

    cause vancouver rocks! and we make the best movies!!
  • marie
    i suppose to be a twilighter but i have no idea of why they are filming in Vancouver, why they change the locations what happen with the ones that were in twilight, something i like from twilight were the locations. I understand if they want to film la push because at the end those locations were not in twilight, but spend money to recreate the same places that were in twilight, why they just don't go to those places, i want to know. I understand why Volterra, that was in the book.Can someone answer this question to me, why are they in Vancouver?

  • Lainaaa
    I think its hillarious they tried to hide this... in a highschool full of TWILIGHT FANS. Good work (Y) haha.
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Wow this is so exciting... lucky ppl who go to that school... they might get the awsomest opportunity to meet the cast.... aggg lol... I'm so happy they kept the school looking the same and are doing whatever possible to keep the most important things looking the same from Twilight... can't wait till Nov!!!
  • ocdrox prowling since 2/09
    wat bout the cullen house!?!?!?!?!
  • Dido
    i know that they are going to film at my school in my school's kitchen
    they got some people from my school to be in it too, like the people who help out in the kitchen...my friend is going to be in it!
  • christy
    They aren't doing the film in Washington because there is another movie being shot there at this time and the local area can not keep up with the props and extras that both movies would need to film with.
  • moloka'i-living
    This has kinda bugged me in the first film-- isn't Forks High supposed really small? Like, the town's population is a whole lot smaller than my island's (which is around 7-8,000) and yet in the movie the school/school population is twice as big...oh well, that's what happens when books go to film...
  • I can see why their hiding it, they probably don't want Fangirls searching the School for Robert or Kristen.
  • Matt
    Omg lucky I wish that was my school and I was in the movie too ahahahahah.!!!!!!!!!!!!! one can wish.
  • I really want to go to that school now!
  • kcullen10
    i really, really, REALLY dont want this movie to be tinted blue like twilight... i just feel like it would be even more beautiful if it were shot in natural lighting. i was seriously holding out hope that new moon would be different in that way... but i guess it wont, according to the "blue lights" that now line the new forks high hallway. *sighs*
  • Natalie
    Awwww can someone email me where the set is?!!? i'm confused!!!
  • mary alice brandon
    ok ppl if u live in vancouver u know exactly where that high school is it's so obvious i'm so going there 2day
  • Margaret
    where's it at?
  • Daniela23
    Haha there was no way it would remain a secret, it is a school. I hope they wont have to many problems with fans though.
    I love the fact they are being consistent. They are really paying extra attention to deatails.
    I wonder what will happend with Cullen house. I hope it will stay the same too.
    I loved it in Twilight. I even imagined it that way when I read the book. I imagined it airy, light, trendy.....
  • I<3EWARD
    OMG!!!!

    MY HEART JUST SKIPPED A BEAT AND

    I THINK I FORGOT HOW 2 BREATH!!!

    NEW MOON ISNT ONE OF MY FAV BOOKS BUT I CANT WAIT 4 THE MOVIE!!!!!!!
  • TwilightFan
    squeeellll
    :]
    im sooo happy, it looks just like the first one!!!
    :)))))
  • NastyaKireeva
    It looks pretty... =) Can't wait for "New Moon"... =)
  • Ashley
    They didn't use the original sets because they would have been swarmed by fans (admit it, you would have gone to watch) Now that Twilight is such a big hit they wouldn't want to delay new moon because they keep having to do retakes. Some girls can go crazy and imagine them fiming and one fan see's rob and starts screaming....well there goes that take. Also, with the economy the way it is, it's a lot cheaper for them to come to canada where I money is not worth as much as the states and hire canadian crews and such. They are saving themselves a lot of money and time hiding from the fans! Oh and trust me, I am dieing to find a location Rob is filming at, I wouldn't scream or anything, but just to see him in person, in make up as Edward......make my heart skip a beat! Every girls fantasy, the handsome, dangerous vampire!
  • Tracy
    As a 30 something woman with a husband and children, life, work, responsibilities, etc., I wouldn't have sought out the set. I simply enjoy the knowledge that a film was shot in a familiar place where I've spent time and have family and friends. I'll happily look forward to the movie coming out, more tales by Stephenie Meyer--will be reading The Host soon--and witnessing the sometimes comical obsession. Takes me back to my teenage years. :)
  • TwilightFan86
    Well, I still think it would cost less to hire some really good security at the old set than to have to rebuild everything in Canada. It's not like people aren't figuring out where they're filiming...hence the entire purpose of this thread. People are going to figure it out! I don't see swarms of fans as an issue as to why they aren't filming with the old sets. And things may be cheaper in Canada, but they already had everything done in the U.S. which would have saved them tons of money. I still don't get it!
  • I don't think they kept the old sets after finishing with the movie, remember they weren't planning on a sequal at first place..
  • Emily
    I totally agree with you Tracy, im a native washinton gal too, and i wish so badly that they would film in washington, but i guess it makes sense of why they had to film in vanocouver cause its way too expensive in the states and stuff, so im fine with that i guess! I actually might be able to go on the set next week cause my friend knows someone that is working on the set right now so hopefully it all goes good! :)
  • Tracy
    Yes, too expensive in the US. Bummed by that. Makes me want to go work for the state in the film industry and change that for future films. Have fun if you get on the set!
  • Rachaael
    where is the British flag then? LOL.

    well all i can say is... lucky pupils at that school o.O!
  • Rosie
    OMG, That is so awesome .
  • TwilightFan86
    I don't get it...why can't they just use the original sets?

    Wouldn't that have saved a lot of time and money?
  • jess
    They can get more value outa the US dollar out in canada for the same quality.
  • Tracy
    I'm just bummed that none of this film will actually be filmed in any of the original locations in Washington and Oregon. My husband's family lives not far from Multnomah Falls--the waterfall in the background of the Cullen's baseball field, and Bonneville Dam, murder scene at "the mill". Honestly, I was bummed that the beach/surfing scene wasn't actually La Push--I've spent time there. BUT, this is just a native Washington gal who wants to see home on the big screen.
  • Leanneduh
    omg omg omg...
    WOW!
  • 1breakingdawn
    wow it looks very good just like the original
  • this looks perfect it looks exactly the same it is really cool
  • Manz_x
    yay they have a wales flag up!!!! amazing! haa!
  • ryet
    Yeah, and they put Australia up too. In Twilight, they put New Zealand up (Americans usually get them mixed up because New Zealand copied our flag not long after we got ours).

    I'm glad we got there instead - it was insulting having New Zealand instead of Australia. We win!!
  • So they do Lol. They have the Irish flag as well but no British flag, interesting....LOL
  • 30yearoldtwifan
    I hope they are filming on the weekends! with lots of guards,or there's going to be a bunch of nutty teens all over that school looking for Rob! lol
  • Claire Danvers_Morganville
    I think it's a good sign that they're going to such great lengths and expense to match the sets of twilight and not just expecting us to accept things changing. To me it means they are really serious about continuity and hopefully this means we're going to get a really good movie.

    I agree about the Cullens house though, it is very cool, even though it wasn't as described in the book and wasn't how I imagined it, it did seem to fit them and I think it would cost way to much to build a replica of it. They're not filming too far away so maybe they can build interior sets and still film outside shots there, they would be able to keep them to a minimum. The action is mainly inside anyway.

    Yesterday was a complete Twilight day for me, I got my DVD a whole two days early and spent all day watching every minute. The second disc extras are good, but I would have prefered more, I love watching all the background stuff when they're filming, how much fun they have. I watched the film twice and then again with the commentary and I agree Rob is very funny, some of his comments are completely random and you can tell it just throws Kristen and Catherine.
  • I'm so jealous, how did you get it early?? I only got an email from Amazon yesterday saying it was shipped, I hope I get tomorrow. Then I will be glued all day. I can't wait to hear the commentary, I've heard clips off it and found it hilarious, I think Robert has an amazing personality, typical dry British humour LMAO
  • HeatherEl
    hmm..i am in same situation here...I THOUGHT it wasn't going to come till the 8th, becuase it was going to be dispatched on the 6th, but (luckily) it is COMING on the 6th instead! Though i dont think my family will see much of me over easter...hehe...I still wish it had come to England at the same time as the U.S...dont you think Rob would be able to pull some strings for the place he was born and bred..?
  • Yeah I was thinking the same thing, him being from London, I thought that maybe the release dates would be the same. But even with new moon, its released on the 20th November and not released here until the 27th, so we've got a whole week to endure, I know it doen't seem that long but it's going to be like torture.
  • Claire Danvers_Morganville
    I preordered from play.com, on Thursday they sent an email to say it had been sent and it arrived yesterday. It's got 4 DVD sized cards with it too which are exclusive to play.com and even better no stupid bite marks, that had to be an april fool!

    Yeah the commentary is funny and Rob, obviously, is speaking with his proper lovely British accent and just basically taking the p*** out of himself. I love the bit when he's showing Bella his skin in the sun and he says he looks sweaty and complains they were supposed to put a fake six-pack on him. Hopefully yours will arrive tomorrow - enjoy!
  • Now the question is how are they going to match the Cullen house??
  • T-RoxSox
    ya, i'm thinking about the same thing right now
  • The Cullen house in Twilight was nothing what I expected, it was beautiful but it didn't match the book in any way. I'm just wondering will they now match the book or find a house the same as in Twilight,, which will probably be hard to do. I wouldn't mind if they changed it completely and brought it more true to the book.
  • JessssicaLovesRooobert!
    Zoome i wanna go there!!
    Wheres the Nz flag, take down the Aussie one please!!
    LMAO
  • ryet
    I repeat,


    "They put Australia up too. In Twilight, they put New Zealand up (Americans usually get them mixed up because New Zealand copied our flag not long after we got ours).

    I'm glad we got there instead - it was insulting having New Zealand instead of Australia. We win!!"

  • Margaret

  • You should have sent in an email tip to let me know! =p
  • Jess
    blechh, i have those same rectangular caf tables at my school. i hate them.

    oh, and it's awesome they're making the new school look just likethe old one - right down to blue columns, nice!
  • Vampangel
    It looks like the Set from before! Now if only the Bella's house looks the same. . .
  • It does look the same, they have built a replica off it, was posted on here a while back.
  • nomesters
    yeah, I agree! it looks the same. its cool they can still have continuity. Out of all thee things in the first movie that should be kept though, the school was one of the only things worth keeping, in my opinion.
  • yeah, they got right the school and bella's house, the cullen's house in the other hand, needs to be changed. i wonder if they are keeping it...
    anyways, how do u handle knowing that new moon is gonna be filmed in your school???!!!
  • WoodenDance
    I disagree with that. the cullen house was amazing!
  • nomesters
    I am not saying that the Cullen house wasn't amazing, but it was absolutely nothing like what was described in the book. So for that reason, I think it should be changed.
  • whitney101
    I understand what your saying but in the movie they can't put every single detail from the book then the movie would have lasted like 4 to 5 hours long thats why they try their best its not going to be perfect but they are trying to do everything they can so just try to understand that they can't make everything perfect.
  • WoodenDance
    cant have everything the same from a book though. Its just one of those things. The house is one of the things that NEEDS to be saved from the first movie. It was an amazing house. Not just that its one of those houses that is suitable for the family.
    Not like anyways the house from the book was even possible in the town of Forks.
  • Ana
    I agree, I LOVED the Cullen's house in Twilight. Yes, it was different from what was described but over all I like that they changed that part to make the house look more modern. I think it's definitely a house the Cullens would live in. It fits them perffectly with it being practically all made out of glass. I'm really curious if they're going to re-make that house (which I doubt) since they re-made Bella's house in Vancouver, or they're going to go back to Oregon for it? I hope they go back to Oregon, it'll be easier for them
  • nomesters
    I partly agree with you. Yes, the house is amazing, and yes, it even fits with the Cullen family. But it was so far off the mark of what was described, and it is supposed to have this open feeling, and in New Moon it is supposed to be eerie when Bella visits it.
    I guess they should keep it for the sake of continuity, but I would be a lot happier if they found a big white house like what Stephenie wrote about.
  • marie
    i also think they should have kept bella's house it was nice too
  • Ana
    Bella's house is being re-made in Vancouver. The pictures from the set were released at one point. They're re-building it and it looks IDENTICAL to the hous in St. Helens.
  • that's so sick! :D
  • twifan
    pretty cool! looks just like the set
