The University stars in «Still Star Crossed»
The film crew of “Still Star Crossed” moves its work today to the Patio de Escuelas complex, after a night of arduous work in the Old Cathedral and the Anaya Palace, technicians and actors will record different sequences in both University spaces. The Art department has been working hard for three days to transform both the Patio de Escuelas and the Patio de Escuelas Menores into 16th-century Verona. For this work, it was necessary to cover the ground with a layer of earth and to prop with carriages and period furniture. In the days prior, the scaffolding covering one of the University walls had to be removed, and anachronistic elements such as waste bins, bollards, or the monolith counting down to the VIII Centenary of the University of Salamanca have also been removed.
The statue of Fray Luis de León, which will also be propped, will be an exceptional witness to the filming of the pilot episode, which tells the love story between Romeo and Juliet. If this episode were approved by the American channel ABC, the rest of the series would be filmed in the future.
Since filming is once again nocturnal, it is necessary to change the lighting in the area, in addition to cutting off traffic on Trilingüe, Plata, and Plaza de la Merced streets.
The Salamanca City Council, through the Salamanca Film Commission, is actively collaborating with the filming in terms of permits, logistics, production, locations, and institutional support.
