‘The Office’ set visit 2009

Tuesday, April 14

I had an absolutely blast today on location! Here are a few photos.

The inimitable Rainn Wilson

I have to give a shout-out to Dan and Erin and their lovely baby. They are picnic extras and super Office fans. Naturally I bonded with them right away. ;)

Someone asked what photos were on Jim’s desk back at Dunder Mifflin. Here you go!

As some of you guessed, yes, I am an extra for the season finale! A proud member of the Buffalo branch. I’ll be milling about in the background, and with any luck, you’ll be able to spot me onscreen somewhere for a split second. :)

   I got super excited and yelled out “it’s Tanster!” then added “she does Office Tally!” for my roommate.

   Wow, corporate are a bunch of JERKS! And of course, YAY JAM!

   So, Tanster, did you find out about Pam being preggers while you were on set, or was that part a surprise to you as well?

   To Tanster:

   Hey I just wanted to thank you so much for this website and how amazing and dedicated you are! I have checked it every single day for the past 3 years and it really is the best :) NBC should thank you two hundred million times for all the support and viewers you have brought to the show! No doubt we’ve been through the good (JAM finally together) and the bad (writer’s strike), and now with the season finale of season 5 less than 3 hours away, I just wanted to say
   THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!

   -Amelia (rockin it in the bay area!)

   [from tanster: thank you so much, amelia! :) ]

    I’m coming right back on here after the show to see the rest of the photos! Thanks for posting them!

    [from tanster: you're welcome! and to clarify, the photos and such are coming after tonight, but not immediately. in fact, they'll be slowly posted in installments.]

    I just have one question… Do you know if this episode will be a 30-minutes or 1-hour long?

    Bye ;)

    I am fully supporting guys wearing eyeliner ever since Johnny Depp’s performance in Pirates. And, agreed, the lighting really washes out a person’s face. Bring on the eyeliner :)

    I think it’s a small brush too, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the male actors wore a touch of eyeliner too. Those lights can wash you out!

    I love this behind the scenes stuff…thanks so much!

    [from tanster: you're welcome! i have LOTS more to post. after tomorrow night. :) ]

    @ 139

    To me, that looks more like a small brush than eyeliner. It would be funny if it were though.

    Is that…eyeliner? I’m going to say (hope) it’s not.
    But I do think I spot some Burt’s Bees lip chap- love that stuff!
    I also love that the accountants teamed up for the coffee cart!

    Thanks for taking the time to get pictures of these cool little details, tanster!

    “Awesome footage, Jennie. Did you take that with a Flip? It’s surprisingly steady for a hand held. Very cool.
    [from tanster: yes, it's with a Flip! the best little gadget ever. especially for a newbie like me. :) ]” was it with a flip mino hd or flip ultra hd? if you know.

    [from tanster: mino hd!]

    Thanks for all the behind-the-scene photos and stories – I’ve enjoyed them! I saw you had a photo with the hair/makeup/prop ladies . . . do you think they would ever be willing to do a Q&A? I’m always curious about the little details of that aspect of the show too – who came up with Jim’s trademark “floppy” hairstyle, where did they get Pam’s pretty pink dress in Cafe Disco, etc.?

    [from tanster: good idea! we'll have to see about doing a Q&A with the behind-the-scenes folks next season. you can read more about jim's hairstyle here.]
