From the movie’s blog:

This was the Sin Bin set Friday night into Saturday morning. It was a night shoot—6 p.m. to 6 a.m.—inside Happy Foods, a grocery store in Chicago’s Edgebrook neighborhood. The actors (or talent as they’re called) working that night were Ben McKenzie, Gillian Jacobs, Brian Petsos, Chicago’s own Brad Morris (of Second City fame), Michael Seater, and Brenda Marie King.

Day 9 of Principal Photography: Location, location, location

It was a long day for the cast and crew of Sin Bin. They filmed in three locations in Chicago: the Lincoln Park Zoo, Superdawg, and on and near the 3900 block of Kenmore in the city’s Wrigleyville neighborhood.

I grabbed some video of a scene shot on Kenmore, in which the characters Michael (played by Ben McKenzie) and Benny (played by Brian Petsos) meet outside the home of Lauren (played by Gillian Jacobs).

That’s Sin Bin writer Chris Storer, in the glasses, watching the action on the monitor.

When the crew finished this scene, they packed up and moved about one block west to a park bench. Sin Bin director Billy Federighi explains what’s going on.
