what camera did you use?
this looks amazing in slomo

who cleans the mess?

Great song choice. :]

but these are all my fellows, what are you doing, says PILLOWMAN

You had awesome sunlight to catch the midair feathers. I wasn't so lucky.

Check out how the west coast did it:

surreal.

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

Great Stuff

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

BTW- I think you threw a pillow at me...did you start throwing them after a while? Haha

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

Super, very poetic!

Do they recycle the pillows?

If there is a conflict between two nations....that's what they should do....put the leaders of both countries in a room and two pillows and let them fight it out in a pillow fight....no one gets hurt...but there will be a winner....lol

Nice work Justin!

Pollution at its worst. And waste, too.

Hi-what is that music? I like it

When will the fighting stop?!!

pretty cool. great video, great song to the video.
missed the pillow fight unfortunately in SF.

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!"

Love the slow mo effect.....great song choice too, great work!

Bacan!!! cool!!!

excellent video, its been said a lot all ready but the song and slo mo really work well.

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?

lol, i was coughing up feathers all afternoon, and i'm sure theres still some stuck to my jacket.
