<P> In May 2015, Garber revealed filming would begin in August 2015, for a January 2016 premiere . The series shot a presentation for the network's upfront showcase, which was filmed over the course of one night, and directed by Arrow and The Flash veteran Dermott Downs . Filming of the series began on September 9, 2015, in Vancouver, British Columbia . Director / producer Glen Winter discussed in a January 2016 interview with Comic Book Resources the process of filming key elements of the series' pilot, </P> <P> The new facet for Legends was that there's no #1 (actor) on the call sheet . There are seven or eight leads . For me, that was the intimidating part . I wasn't as worried about the action and tone as I was with wrangling all these personalities and finding out how they all work together . Or, how to shoot a scene with eight people in the Waverider, day after day . </P> <P> He stated of the series style of shooting on location as opposed to predominantly shooting on a soundstage, </P> <P> As is typical with any pilot, most of the time you are going to shoot more on location . Because you don't necessarily know if you are going to have a show that's been picked up, they don't want to invest a lot of money in the infrastructure, so you end up shooting more on location . The only set that was built was the Waverider . That being said, because we knew there was a pickup for the show, it wasn't a conventional pilot . All the resources of construction went into the Waverider . That's continuing into the series . I don't think they tend to build much . I think they tend to adapt locations because there's so much time travel and so many eras to create . </P>
