E! News: The highly anticipated High School Musical 3 movie began shooting on Saturday in Salt Lake City, and E! News got the scoop: Ashley Tisdale was escorted around the set by a police officer who never left her side, except when cameras were rolling. E! News’ set spy said she looked really sad. She never cracked a smile and did not socialize with anyone, except Vanessa Hudgens, who wasn’t working but showed up late in the afternoon to hang out. It’s worth noting that Tisdale, who plays the spoiled Sharpay, was done up in a pink cowgirl costume, which might make anyone a bit glum. Zac Efron, Corbin Bleu, Ryne Sanborn and Chris Warren were also on hand, shooting classroom scenes. Though all the actors had their own well-guarded trailers, the guys tended to hang out on set and chat with extras and crew. Olesya Rulin wore sunglasses indoors all day. The extras got a kick out of that Hollywood-esque move. Director Kenny Ortega personally directed the extras and was "extremely gracious to all of us," said our set source. "He was carrying around Ashley's dog all day. He was holding it as if it lived in his arms." Wait a minute—he had her dog? Maybe that’s why she was so glum. Check back for more on-set HSM3 scoop as filming continues…

Below, for download, are various multiple videos from the "High School Musical 3: Senior Year" Press Conference that was held at East High School in Salt Lake City, Utah on May 2nd. Enjoy!

Paul Lee, president, ABC Family, today outlined ABC Family's plans for Summer and Fall of 2008. Scheduled to debut this summer is "Picture This," an ABC Family original movie premiere, which stars Ashley Tisdale premiering Sunday, July 13, (8:00 - 10:00 PM ET/PT). "Picture This" is a coming-of-age comedy about an unpopular high school senior - with an overprotective father - who gets a date to the biggest party of the year with the school's most sought after guy, only to find herself grounded on the appointed day. So, she enlists her friends and a video phone to outsmart her dad - as well as her date's ex-girlfriend. Kevin Pollack stars as the father.

Bright and early this morning, the stars are at Salt Lake City's East High for the shooting of "High School Musical 3: Senior Year." Gov. Jon Huntsman welcomed the cast yesterday morning at a news conference at East High School. In the third movie, it's senior year and sweethearts Troy and Gabriella are preparing to attend different colleges. Zac Efron, who plays Troy Bolton, was asked how this third musical will be different than the other two hits. "We're kind of deciding for ourselves what we're going to do with our futures, whether it be college; I know for my character, basketball is a huge priority," he said. The film is scheduled for release this fall, but Vanessa Hudgens, who plays Gabriella Montez, refused to give away the romantic plot. "You definitely see relationships blossom. I'm not gonna give it away, but it's really good," she said. As for the real Wildcat students, they say they love the publicity for the school. The movie will be in theaters October 24th.
