An Albany neighborhood will serve as a backdrop for a Disney movie Saturday.

Barricades and signs warning of traffic delays are in place around West Society Avenue.

That's where a crew from Buena Vista Studios a Disney company, will film scenes for The Odd Life of Timothy Green.

Neighbors told us they got flyers more than a week ago asking them to avoid parking on the street over the weekend.

One resident told us he doesn't mind the inconvenience at all.

Luke said they were told filming should wrap up by Monday. West Society was chosen because of the canopy of majestic Oaks over the road.
