E2Perfect Harmony: Madison Reyes and Charlie GillespieCharlie Gillespie and Madison Reyes are practising their dance duet for Julie's dream sequence with Luke during "Perfect Harmony". They decided to meet on their own, off set, at an ice-skating rink to further practise and perfect their dance together. - I Got the Music Shot Compare
E3I Got the Music Shot CompareA shot for shot comparison of the rehearsals to the final edit for the musical number "I Got the Music". There are noticeable differences between the two, notably that Madison Reyes is often replaced for the role of Julie by a dance double. This is because Madison was either not present on set or shooting another scene at the time, which is likely due to the fact that she is a minor and is only allowed to work so many hours a week. - I Got the Music Rehearsal
E4I Got the Music RehearsalA rehearsal of the dance break that is supposed to go down when Flynn comes in rapping on "I Got the Music". The choreography is being build on professional dancers with Victoria Caro taking on the part of Flynn, and so there is no cast involved yet in this stage of the process. - A Sunset Curve Rehearsal with Luke, Reggie and Alex of Julie and the Phantoms
E5A Sunset Curve Rehearsal with Luke, Reggie and Alex of Julie and the PhantomsCharlie Gillespie, Jeremy Shada and Owen Joyner are rehearsing their solos for when Luke, Reggie and Alex poof in with their guitar, bass and drums during "You Got Nothing to Lose". They came up with their own instrumental solos, and so they are fine-tuning what they want it to sound like. - 'I Got The Music' Rehearsal
E6'I Got The Music' RehearsalA compilation of the rehearsals for the musical number "I Got the Music". In some of the rehearsals Madison Reyes is replaced for the role of Julie by a dance double. This is because Madison was either not present on set or shooting another scene at the time, which is likely due to the fact that she is a minor and is only allowed to work so many hours a week. - Charlie Gillespie Sings to the Crew
E7Charlie Gillespie Sings to the CrewCharlie Gillespie is hyping up the cast and crew while singing "Rolling on the River" by Tina Turner. Everyone is having fun, and Charlie gets many people to clap and sing along. One person is even doing the iconic dance moves associated with this song. - Other Side of Hollywood Dance Rehearsal
E8Other Side of Hollywood Dance RehearsalA rehearsal for the dance during "Other Side of Hollywood" with professional dancers and stand-ins for the actors. There's three different takes and every take has some small differences in choreography even though it's all to the same part of the song. - Shot Compare of "All Eyes On Me" (ft Owen Joyner)
E10Shot Compare of "All Eyes On Me" (ft Owen Joyner)A shot by shot comparison for the dance performance during "All Eyes on Me" with a focus on Alex. In the rehearsal clip, the original Dirty Candy cast is not there except for Victoria Caro, although she now takes on the lead part of Carrie instead of Kayla. This rehearsal is clearly meant for Owen Joyner to practise coming in on the dance as Alex. - Dirty Candy "All Eyes on Me" Rehearsal
E11Dirty Candy "All Eyes on Me" RehearsalA rehearsal for Dirty Candy's performance of "All Eyes on Me". The rehearsal looks pretty much identical to the final product in the show, with the most obvious difference being that the actors are not in costume, but instead their own clothes and that there are no special effects. - Charlie Gillespie and Jeremy Shada Singing HSM & Backstreet Boys
E12Charlie Gillespie and Jeremy Shada Singing HSM & Backstreet BoysCharlie Gillespie is busking for fun with his acoustic guitar at the beach boulevard during some off-time from filming there. He eventually asks if anyone has any requests which leads to "I Want It That Way" by The Backstreet Boys. When Kenny Ortega comes around, Charlie asks Jeremy Shada to join him in his street performance to pay homage to Kenny with the iconic High School Musical duet "Breaking Free". Charlie is kind of messing up the lyrics though, so Kenny jokingly walks away, but he does leave him a dollar. Charlie cracks a few jokes about it and they all end up laughing. - Julie Screams Meeting the Phantoms!
E16Julie Screams Meeting the Phantoms!First, Kenny Ortega is giving Madison Reyes directions on how she can best 'scream' when seeing the phantoms for the first time in the pilot episode. Then, they start shooting and it shows how the scene is filmed very differently from how it is later edited on screen. - Owen Joyner 1st Time Eating Sushi
E18Owen Joyner 1st Time Eating SushiKenny Ortega got Owen Joyner to eat sushi for the very first time in his life. It is obvious Owen is not the biggest fan, but he tries to blame it on the texture. According to Owen the sushi is "mushy", but Kenny denies that this is the case. - I Got the Music Dance Break Finale Rehearsal
E19I Got the Music Dance Break Finale RehearsalA rehearsal for the big dance number at the finale of "I Got the Music". This is one of the very last rehearsals prior to filming and it is basically just meant to test out the location. Therefore, there is no cast present but instead only professional dancers. - Charlie Gillespie Dance Rehearsal: Perfect Harmony
E20Charlie Gillespie Dance Rehearsal: Perfect HarmonyCharlie Gillespie is practising the dance for "Perfect Harmony" with his rehearsal partner Louise Hradsky. The duet is going really well already, but when the part comes where Charlie has to do the difficult solo tricks and dance moves on the floor, he asks for some extra clarification. The professional dancers present all start helping him out. - Shot Compare "Edge of Great"
E21Shot Compare "Edge of Great"A shot by shot comparison between the rehearsal and final edit for the "Edge of Great" performance. The biggest difference is that during the rehearsal we see Madison Reyes (Julie) pretty much immediately going up to Charlie Gillespie (Luke) when singing together, while in the final edit she is supposed to ignore him at first. - Julie Sings "Great": Luke and Julie
E22Julie Sings "Great": Luke and JulieA rehearsal for the first part of the "Edge of Great" performance. This rehearsal was in the earlier stages of putting the performance together, because the crew on the sidelines is still telling the cast, and in particular Madison Reyes, basic things such as where to stand and who to look at. - Perfect Harmony 1st Rehearsal with Juke
E23Perfect Harmony 1st Rehearsal with JukeCharlie Gillespie and Madison Reyes rehearse their dance duet during "Perfect Harmony" for the very first time together. It's going rather well already, but they're also just having fun with it. Luckily, they seem very comfortable with each other and thus the dance never misses chemistry. - Tori Caro, Charlie Gillespie "Great" Rehearsal: Where's Julie?
E25Tori Caro, Charlie Gillespie "Great" Rehearsal: Where's Julie?Kenny Ortega and Paul Becker are working on the staging for the performance of "Edge of Great" with Charlie Gillespie (Luke), Victoria Caro (stand-in for Julie), Jeremy Shada (Reggie), and Louise Hradsky (stand-in for Alex). They're focusing on the staging for Luke and Julie in particular, since that is the most important part. - First Time the Band Heard "Stand Tall"
E27First Time the Band Heard "Stand Tall"The band is hearing the demo for "Stand Tall" for the very first time. Kenny Ortega is asking them to just vibe out and jam to the song, so they can experiment with the staging for the performance. They come to the conclusion that the demo is missing some sort of climax, and so they decide they'll have to work on the musical and vocal arrangements a bit more. - Bright Rehearsal
E28Bright RehearsalMadison Reyes, Charlie Gillespie, Owen Joyner, and Jeremy Shada are rehearsing "Bright" while performing in front of a small crowd of people in the cast and crew. They rehearse with great stage presence and are really embodying their inner Julie, Luke, Alex and Reggie. - Shot Compare "Now or Never"
E30Shot Compare "Now or Never"A shot by shot comparison between the rehearsal and final edit for the performance of "Now or Never". The biggest difference between the two is the camera angle, since the rehearsal shot is much further away and without any zoom-ins, which the final edit has a lot of. Aside from that, the two shots are pretty much identical with the band already in costume and playing on set during the rehearsal. - Finally Free Shoot UnEdited
E32Finally Free Shoot UnEditedA behind the scenes look during filming of the "Finally Free" performance. The only thing visible are the camera monitors, and the cameras focus entirely on Madison Reyes (Julie) and Charlie Gillespie (Luke), who are performing their hearts out. - Halloween Jam UnEdited
E38Halloween Jam UnEditedThe cast and crew are having a Halloween party on set, so everyone came dressed up (for example: Owen Joyner came as a big baby, Charlie Gillespie as a killer clown and Madison Reyes as the devil). Everyone is having fun, and eventually Charlie Gillespie and Savannah Lee May start doing the Cupid Shuffle dance, which leads to everyone at the party joining in as if it's some sort of flashmob. - Acapella Duet Juke
E45Acapella Duet JukeCharlie Gillespie and Madison Reyes are sitting behind the grand piano together at the "Edge of Great" set with not really any other cast and crew around. The two of them are just kind of messing around, singing "Stand Tall" a capella in a funny manner (while still sounding good). Every time when one of them switches the note or tone they're singing in, the other very quickly follows. They're mostly just having fun with it, hanging out together.
