And the Neo sightings continue to mount up as shooting for 'The Matrix 4' carries on throughout San Francisco this weekend and tomorrow.</p><p>The 55-year-old actor, producer, and musician was spotted last night — trailed by a small police escort — in the Financial District where he and fellow co-stars, one being Carrie-Anne Moss (Trinity), were witnessed filming scenes for 'The Matrix 4.' Twitter was aflutter with videos and images of the actor, many of which bottled his famous benevolent spirit; Reeves waved at passersby and, apparently, took selfies with a few, post-shooting.</p><div align="center" style="width:100%;

<p>Coit Tower tourists are out of luck again today from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. as Logan Media shoots a corporate commercial with a drone, closing the landmark and surrounding Pioneer Park. That's according to officials from the nonprofit Protect Coit Tower, who sound mighty peeved that the fire nozzle shaped landmark they've worked to protect and restore was rented from the Recreation and Park Department by a private company for a $1,500 shooting permit.</p>

<p>Logan Media officials explain that FAA rules require the public to stay at least 200 feet away from commercial filming drones. Logan frequently shoots high-end advertisements for high-end companies like BMW, Audi, and Marc Jacobs, so that could be what some of the fuss is about. Plus the drone thing: Most people don't really like them, do they? </p>

<p>“Coit Tower is a public space that belongs to all the people, and it diminishes this treasure to stop people from even seeing Coit Tower because a company wants to use a drone for its commercial,” said Jon Golinger of Protect Coit Tower. “Why is the Recreation and Park Department selling private access to this public treasure and preventing people who have traveled from around the world to visit from even taking a photograph of Coit Tower just because a corporation wants to use a drone for its commercial?” </p>

<p>No word on how the local <a href="http://sfist.com/2013/07/18/and_now_a_quiet_moment_with_some_wi.php">wild parrots</a> are dealing with all this, but if they're disturbed, expect a bloodcurdling public outcry. </p>

<p>Today <a href="http://laughingsquid.com/the-dangers-of-vertical-video-syndrome/">Laughing Squid</a> brings to you what is perhaps the single most important PSA you will see in your brief lifetime. We are, of course, talking about Vertical Video Syndrome, the aesthetic-killing plague of shooting video with one's phone camera vertically. Mario and Fafa of <a href="http://www.gloveandboots.com/">Glove and Boots</a> created it, and thank God they did. You <em>need</em> to watch it, and then spread it. Spread it like a cleansing wildfire.</p>

<p>Thank you. </p>

<p>A scene from the pilot of <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1728102/">Alcatraz</a></em> - being <a href="http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/san_francisco&amp;id=7943566">filmed</a> on <a href="http://bit.ly/fqcpMO">Filbert Street, between Hyde and Leavenworth</a> today - will result in some street closures today and pseudo-gunfire. </p>

<p>Filming will start from noon to 7 p.m., but the streets will be shutdown for most of the day until 7 p.m.</p>

<p>The <a href="http://www.sfexaminer.com/local/2011/02/tv-show-filming-will-close-san-francisco-streets">Examiner</a> reports, "Scenes will be taking place in the street that will include simulated gunfire of three or four shots as police officers drive up to a house and are shot as they exit their car."</p>

<p>The JJ Abrams-helmed show will air on FOX in the fall season. Let's hope this one sticks. <em>Alcatraz</em> is one of several new shows being filmed in San Francisco in an effort to lure Hollywood back.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Penn to Hit Castro Bars as <i>Milk</i> Shooting Starts]]></title><description><![CDATA[Undergoing a procedure to erase 30 years from its face, the Castro neighborhood is going retro, circa 1978, for the filming of Gus Van Sant's Harvey Milk biopic, <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w...]]></description><link>https://sfist.com/2008/01/21/penn_to_hit_cas/</link><guid isPermaLink="false">5c2428ba44ad066cdcf516b8</guid><category><![CDATA[SF News]]></category><category><![CDATA[castro]]></category><category><![CDATA[Castro Street]]></category><category><![CDATA[Castro Theatre]]></category><category><![CDATA[Dan White]]></category><category><![CDATA[Dianne Feinstein]]></category><category><![CDATA[film]]></category><category><![CDATA[filming]]></category><category><![CDATA[george moscone]]></category><category><![CDATA[gus van sant]]></category><category><![CDATA[Harvey Milk]]></category><category><![CDATA[Josh Brolin]]></category><category><![CDATA[Matt Damon]]></category><category><![CDATA[Mayor]]></category><category><![CDATA[Mayor George Moscone]]></category><category><![CDATA[media]]></category><category><![CDATA[milk]]></category><category><![CDATA[movie]]></category><category><![CDATA[Penn]]></category><category><![CDATA[San Francisco]]></category><category><![CDATA[San Francisco Supervisor]]></category><category><![CDATA[Sean Penn]]></category><category><![CDATA[sf]]></category><category><![CDATA[sf supervisor]]></category><category><![CDATA[the Castro]]></category><category><![CDATA[Theatre]]></category><category><![CDATA[this week]]></category><category><![CDATA[Tom Ammiano]]></category><category><![CDATA[Tommy Ammiano]]></category><category><![CDATA[twinkies]]></category><category><![CDATA[Van Sant]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brock Keeling]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jan 2008 14:07:57 GMT</pubDate><media:content url="https://img.sfist.com/assets_c/2009/04/entry143395_thumb-thumb-640xauto-190572.jpg" medium="image"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://img.sfist.com/assets_c/2009/04/entry143395_thumb-thumb-640xauto-190572.jpg" alt="Penn to Hit Castro Bars as <i>Milk</i> Shooting Starts"><p>Undergoing a procedure to erase 30 years from its face, the Castro neighborhood is going retro, circa 1978, for the filming of Gus Van Sant's Harvey Milk biopic, <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_%28film%29">Milk</a></em>, which starts shooting this week. Already the Castro Theatre, right, and boutique shop <a href="http://sfist.com/2007/12/05/575_castro_harv.php">Given</a>, formerly Milk's camera store / campaign headquarters, are being renovated to get that '70s vibe. Rumor has it that Castro Street between 18th and 19th streets (i.e., <a href="http://sfist.com/2008/01/14/guess_the_graph.php">the staphicenter</a>) will be closed on Thursday. We'll update with more info as it comes in.</p>

<p>For those of you who don't know the story, San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk was "the first openly gay man elected to any substantial political office in the history of the planet," according to <em>Time</em>. In 1978, SF Supervisor Dan White, while under the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkie_defense">duress of creaming filling</a>, shot and killed Milk and Mayor George Moscone. Then, thirty years later, your editor was deemed too morbidly obese and/or ugly to <a href="http://sfist.com/tags/harveymilk">appear as an extra</a> in his biopic. </p>

<p>The movie will star Sean Penn (as Milk), <del>Matt Damon</del> Josh Brolin (as Dan White), and our very own Tom Ammiano (<a href="http://ebar.com/news/article.php?sec=news&amp;article=2606">as Tommy Ammiano</a>). No word yet as to whether or not <a href="http://sfist.com/2007/11/02/difi_shrub_love.php">Dianne Feinstein</a> will even be written into the film as a character, but...it doesn't look good for the former supe. Or so says <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1013753/">IMDB</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_%28film%29">Wikipedia</a>. Crestfallen doesn't begin to describe how we feel about this slight.<br>
