timeevent
about 6:00 AMproduction sets up (or is already ready)
about 7:00 AMPhil arrives
about 7:15 to 7:30 AMteams arrive one-by-one (in boats, limousines, yachts, helicopters, something else?)
about 7:40 AMeverybody is lined up
at 8:00 AMteams are off!

There will be some activity taking place even earlier - 7am at the Venice Pier (with "Talent") involving helicopters. So if you want to see everything get here at the crack of dawn.

The sunrise is 6ish, but they can't really start that early because it would wake the neighbours.
From there to here, and here to there,
funny things are everywhere

LA noise ordinance allows production to start at 6. 6 AM would be the best to to see production set up. Otherwise, 7 AM or a few minutes before would also be a great time.

Hmmm... 1200 miles to Venice Beach. 150 miles to the nearest large airport. I get off work at 7 AM. The start is at 9 AM.
Maybe if I take the shortcut to the interstate.....

Naahh. I think I'll be there in spirit only.   :gaah:

Hope you have fun to everyone that attends. Wish I could join you.

That doesn't make much sense. Did you really think about what you were saying?

How do you explain all the TV shows and movies that are filmed in LA during the night time?

Is it just me or is the live cam hard to watch at?
By the way, nobody's staying at the Graffiti Pit yet.

People keep moving the camera all over the place and it's frustrating  :gaah:

I'm watching from Ireland, am I mistaken or is the place very quiet? Have I got the wrong location or time? Surely the place should be buzzing by now. What with production etc.

The camera seems to move around at times even when I have supposed to control it

I find this a little odd too... At the TAR 25 NYC start, things were much more active.

The camera is hard to control, especially if you don't know what the locations are that it allows you to choose from. Plus, once you choose the view you want to see there is a delay. By the time the camera moves to the spot you selected, your time is up and it goes back to a wide view of the areas. Graffiti Pit is the obvious location, but LA PD Division view seems to have more activity.
Is it possible the action is happening out of the view of this webcam?

This cam is more concentrated on what looks like the production.
