I took part in this huge event today. I knew it'd look cool in true slow motion, and I think I was right. Enjoy!

    This looks awesome, I'm going to have to find a pillow fight in the UK to film though :S
    The shot at 02:52 is great, nice work there :D

    who cleans the mess?
  • justinsuperstar plus 3 years ago
    They also organize a clean up afterwards, usually it's the folks who make the mess who stick around to gather the feathers.

    surreal.

  • goldentouchfarm 3 years ago
    Just think 5 years ago how hard it would have been to organize, capture, and share an event like this.

    Great Stuff
  • Alex Itin 3 years ago
    sure, but think if five years ago we'd organized to stop a war
    not start a pillow fight.

    A great vid, but it got me thinking about the state of The State
  • ishan 3 years ago
    word.

  • Chris Gampat 3 years ago
    Haha, i was there too. I took a camera though because I didn't want my HV20 getting messed up. Plus, i got in there: ngm.nationalgeographic.com/myshot/gallery/1734

  • Chris Gampat 3 years ago
    BTW- I think you threw a pillow at me...did you start throwing them after a while? Haha
  • justinsuperstar plus 3 years ago
    Haha --- nope! I went into the mix and hit some heads, but never threw anything.
  •  
  • feistgeist plus 3 years ago
    Hahah. Awesome. I was there too filming with the same camera. It was such a good subject to film. Nice work. I haven't looked at all my footage yet.

    That's pretty awesome. I couldn't make it to the Chicago one but I doubt it was anywhere near as cool anyway

    pretty cool. great video, great song to the video.
    missed the pillow fight unfortunately in SF.
  •  
  • bloopy 3 years ago
    when i shot, cut, and posted a vid of the sf pillowfight i started looking around to see what other people did, but in general it was like a boring 30 seconds of the crowd that was shot from a safe distance. . . for whatever reason i always prefer closeup shots like you have here. . . nice vid!. . .

    DUDE!!!! I was in the subway that night coming home from work and had to transfer at Union square and the subway was FILLED with feathers. I couldn't fathom how in the world it happened. I could only assume that a giant chicken got hit by a train. But now I know what ACTUALLY happened. Thanks for posting this ;) Looked like a lot of fun!

    Imagine if they used raw chicken parts instead? I didn't see any blood or guts and what's the fun in that? Good job Jason and tell George to "get a life and have some fun!"

  • Chris Morgan 3 years ago
    Looks great!
    it seems as though that camera could produce waaaay better footage than what has come out as the final product on vimeo. if it has a feature of shooting at 240 fps.
    its a pro camera right?
  •  
  • Pete Labrozzi 3 years ago
    lol, i was coughing up feathers all afternoon, and i'm sure theres still some stuck to my jacket.
