Tannadice has provided the backdrop for the second day of filming of a James McAvoy movie being shot in Dundee.
Scenes are being shot for California Schemin’ at various locations in the city.
The movie will tell the true story of two Dundee students who duped the music industry by pretending to be American to get a record deal.
Filming took place in the Hilltown on Monday before production moved to the streets outside Tannadice – home of Dundee United – on Tuesday.
