Where is pretty little liars set

Oh, and if you didn't need enough of a reason to go scoop up your tickets right now, how about this: What are you going to do when the show ends on June 27? Just sit around and start the whole series again? Hell no; you need to tour the PLL set, baby! By Allie Gemmill. See All Health Relationships Self.

They don't just use the town square, either. How nuts is it that Hanna and Lucas go out on a boat in the same river where Jess and Rory have their infamous basket date also the same river that Luke throws his nephew in, so there's that. Thanks to my own keen observational skills and help from fans including Tumblr user princess-londons-pics, here are some comparisons that will blow your minds.

The little yellow house where Lane grew up is now used as the front of Emily's house on Pretty Little Liars. The back side of Lorelei's gorgeous house gets a little less quirky and a little more swanky for PLL. This is one of my favorite, because I'd recognize those windows anywhere. So when we do the end of the last episode of a season, we have to maintain the continuity with the first episode of the next season.

Which of these worlds in this last episode are we going to be in as we open the next season? Or will we be creating new worlds that are moments from what was last on screen? A rooftop, perhaps, that gives the season finale that cliffhanger moment…are we returning to that moment, or have we moved to one moment beyond and into another world? If a piece is from the Warner Bros. The first pass is always through Warner Bros. And this space can be a lot less costly to do because I can pull the bulk of it out of the prophouse right here.

You could have taken that more western or more country, depending on what was available… DeBiasio: Exactly, and the bulk of what was in that set came out of the Warner Bros. Another interesting note: the architectural footprint of that set was used probably 5 or 6 different times, in episodes that then became reliant on set dressing to change the look enough to make it seem an entirely different space.

Where am I?!! When we first started the show, we had just Stages 6 and 7. Then we added Stage 8 in the third season. Then we have our swing stage sets, which for quite a long time held Radley Sanitarium , and we have our police station that is a semi-permanent set. But even that footprint gets revamped into different worlds as needed.

Part of that is being resourceful with the materials that you have, with the time that you have, and with the budget constraints that you have. All of those things have to come into play. We treat our worlds as if they are real worlds. Even though Emily Fields and Spencer Hastings are not real people, their sets are real. So within their world, we have to make sure their linens are clean, that the carpets get shampooed, that the sofas are clean…because all of those elements are real and provide a real life for a make-believe character.

We squeeze a large number of sets into our stages, and we use our sets a lot…and not just for filming! So not only do we have the wear and tear of the sets being used while being filmed, we also have the wear and tear of sets being used by the company while that other set is being shot.

Of course, the furnishings have set covers on them, but there are times when the covers come off, particularly on our coffeehouse set The Brew. I take it as a compliment that our real-life girls really love to spend time in there, off-camera as well as on. They thoroughly enjoy hanging out in there. We want them to feel as comfortable as possible, thus, everything is uncovered in that set so they can hang in The Brew like the four Pretty Little Liars would.

That creates an added wear and tear because all of the furniture in that set is being used, and some are vintage pieces. And the coffeehouse is a perfect example of a multi-used footprint. It started out as our school lobby. Traditionally, it would be a large open space, with perhaps some trophy cases. So it became a variety of sets. It was one of those footprints that I got to change over several times…it was the crisis center , it was the doll hospital , it was a hair salon , it was a bus station , and then it finally became our coffeehouse.

The Brew is now one of our new permanent sets, and for me, creating that was great. The production designer gave us really warm, rich, jewel-tones to work with, and so I had a lot of fun in mixing some pieces that I bought with some pieces that I pulled from the Warner Bros.

Those are sets that I want to add as much character to as I can, and I pulled as much character as I could out of Warner Bros. So I went out into the world to find those pieces. That allows people, sometimes, to see things on sets that may actually be in their homes.

The connection is essential. You know, I see things in prophouses that you never thought you would see again in your life. They are part of the psyche and when you see them, there are visceral moments that suddenly bring you back to the last time you were in that moment.

And those moments of stepping into the past, or a remembrance of a time… DeBiasio: Yes!
