Cin City Shootings

I am reminded that LA is the home of cinema every day. A man lying on the sidewalk downtown with fake blood on the cement, with a friend taking shots. A couple shooting with camera on tripod through a window pane into someone's house. Five trucks lined up on Exposition Blvd Sunday morning outside the Mudd Hall of Philosophy, dragging equipment in. And today a truck outside a women's shelter next to the compound of the Second Church of Christ Scientist. Not to mention random activities on campus. In fact the libraries even have a Student Filming Policy at http://www.usc.edu/isd/libraries/about/facilities_usage/student_filming_policy/ ! It's a way of life here.
