Super 8 Updates: Chat Icon Appears and Video Footage From Weirton Set Dan Koelsch, October 9, 2010 Today we have a small viral update and video footage of film production in action in Weirton, West Virginia for Super 8, the sci-fi film being produced by J.J. Abrams and Steven Spielberg. First, we have footage of Super 8 being shot on location from William Blakenship (via AICN). Then we have a new icon on our favorite remote desktop.
