Portions of Hannah Montana movie filmed at Vanderbilt Friday
A film crew for the Hannah Montana movie currently filming at locations around Middle Tennessee visited the Vanderbilt campus on Friday, May 16.

They filmed scenes outdoors near Kirkland Hall and Buttrick and indoors at Sarratt Cinema and Furman Hall.

A few lucky folks caught of glimpse of Billy Ray Cyrus, Hannah Montana's dad, and some faculty and staff were drafted to be extras.

Peter Chesolm, the director for the film, along with the producer and several members of his crew graciously  visited the Maymester course, "America on Film: Performance andCulture." He talked about this film, his work and the relationship between performance and directing.
