Hawai‘i Five-0 films at UH Mānoa for upcoming episode TAYLOR MORRIS Staff Writer The hit TV show Hawai‘i Five-0 will bring publicity to the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa through an episode in the show’s second season. Though there has already been filming on campus, Hawai‘i Five-0 will also be at the UH Rainbow Wahine Volleyball game this Saturday. “This is a very big thing for the University of Hawai‘i on many levels,” said Tracy Orillo-Donovan, public information officer at UH Mānoa. Filming for the e p i -
sode has already taken place at various places in the Stan Sheriff Center and at T.C. Ching Field. These locations were necessary because the plot of the episode involves a UH Mānoa head volleyball coach. This is the fi rst time that the UH name and logo have been permitted clearance for use in a commercial television show. In order for Hawai‘i Five-0 to be affi liated with the university, it had to guarantee the university would be portrayed favorably. “We wanted to make sure that UH is projected in the most positive way,” stated Orillo-Donovan. In order to ensure this, UH worked
closely with Hawai‘i Five-0 in the production of the episode. OrilloDonovan said, “We were able to work with the producers, director and writers to make sure we were comfortable with everything.” With this special addition to the game, Saturday’s matchup may surpass the attendance record of any UH Rainbow Wahine Volleyball game in the last five years. The current record is 7,300, and 7,200 tickets had been sold for Saturday’s game as of Wednesday. The publicity may also help to improve future athletic recruitment. When recruiting athletes, UH coaches of all sports look to athletes on the mainland as well as Hawai‘i, so many of them were interested in learning more about the film-
ing. Being able to say that a popular television show like Hawai‘i Five-0 was filmed at an athletic event gives these coaches a selling point for potential recruits. “It gives it more of an edge,” said Orillo-Donovan. The show’s publicist stated that about 30 minutes after the game ends, Hawai‘i Five-0’s crew will begin filming. Anyone who would like to be a part of the “real” crowd shots and action shots of “acting” volleyball players is welcome to stay. Those who stay for the fi lming will have a chance to win raffle tickets and exclusive t-shirts. Hawai‘i Five-0 officials have expressed a hope to see a high-energy crowd clad in UH green. The rest of the episode was completed as of Aug. 29, so the scene at the game is the last to be shot. The episode is scheduled to air on Oct. 17 on CBS.
