'Footloose' Continues Filming in Acworth

The weather has cooperated as the filming of Paramount remake of Footloose continues in Acworth, GA.

Nighttime shooting began on Wednesday night around Downtown Acworth.  The crews do a pretty good job of keeping to themselves.  If you didn't drive by the staging areas, or the lot where the crew and extras are parking you might not even know a big budget Hollywood production is being shot in a small confined area in an old railroad town.

There are some small yellow sigs set up around the area with arrows directing the necessary vehicles where to go.

As pictured above, yellow arrow signs with a "FL" on it are used to direct people to the movie set.  Pretty clever, as most people wouldn't even think twice about seeing a sign like this.

An old car dealership is being used for overflow parking for extras and crew with their own cars.  This lot is only used for special event parking in Acworth, and anytime it is used locals know something is going on.  Also signs with red arrows saying "crew" and "extras" parking are the tip off.

I guess filming will continue through out this week and then they move on to another locale in Georgia.
