Note: This is a video I edited for the campaign, not the one I was shooting.

Thursday I did a shoot for the Brown Bailout campaign. The point of the video was to make fun of UPS's attempt to change Federal regulations to benefit themselves and hurt FedEx. We shot around the Capitol building with the Brown Bailout Guy (a character you'll probably recognize from all the advertisements on Youtube) dressed as a hunter, chasing the "Lame Duck Congress". It was a fun shoot, because the Capitol police let us do whatever we wanted. It was absurd at times. At one point the Capitol police asked us what we were doing, but the second I flashed my press pass, he turned around and walked away. I couldn't believe what they let us get away with. We had the Brown Bailout Guy pulling a decoy duck out of the reflecting pool, dancing around the Capitol lawn holding a big net and even riding a Segway while making duck calls into a bullhorn!
