SHOOT: PROOF Lights Up Robson Square to Film Jennifer Beals & Vancouver Central Library to Film Ambulance This Week

proof series marked

Produced by Kyra Sedgewick, Proof is a 10-episode supernatural medical mystery series for TNT about surgeon Dr. Carolyn Tyler (Jennifer Beals) who’s asked by a dying tech billionaire (Matthew Modine) to investigate cases of reincarnation and hauntings for proof. Despite her own after-death experience she remains Scully-skeptical and reliant on hard science when it comes to answering the question — is there something beyond death?

Proof filmed its pilot here last Spring with various locations playing the Bay Vista Medical Center, including the curtain wall of the Central Vancouver Public Library. Cast and crew returned to a Vancouver a week or two ago for pre-production and filming resumed on Monday around the Central Library. The next day, Proof set up at Gotham Steakhouse on Seymour Street. And on Wednesday, started filming two days in and around Robson Square as Washington Pacific University. First on the Classrooms level of UBC Robson Square. And then this night shoot on the Robson Square steps after the skating rink closed.

The scene: Dr. Carolyn Tyler (Jennifer Beals) and a male companion exit Washington Pacific University (Vancouver Art Gallery) and stroll past trees strung with white lights. Suddenly her companion turns and runs back to break up a fight. She joins him.

The Central Library looked just as beautiful lit up on Monday night for a scene of a flashing Bay Vista ambulance speeding by.

  1. I’d like to know what building is used for the interiors of the hospital they work at. It is so futuristic and clean it can’t be cgi.

    1. Some of the interiors for Bay Vista Medical Center in the atrium at Vancouver’s Central Public Library and some in the atrium at University of British Columbia’s Life Sciences Centre. May be more locations used but these are the main ones.

      Looks so modern and full of light that if I was ill I’d want to be taken there.

  2. Just watching the Pilot now & saw one of our Auditoriums in the Life Sciences Centre at UBC (Med School). Didn’t even know this was shot in Vancouver until I saw the room I ate lunch at! Haha… They didn’t even change the name of our coffee shop – Cafe Perugia 🙂
