My Awesome Experience on a Christopher Titus Music Video!

Being on a Christopher Titus music video was very different from what I was used to. For those of you who don't know who Christopher Titus is, he is a stand-up comedian who's had a rough life before he actually got picked up and noticed. He kind of incorporates his bad childhood with his comedy.  I got called for his music video called "Arm the Children."  It is exactly as it sounds.  It's a music video about gun control.  You wouldn't think so because he arms all the kids with fake guns that look like real guns.  When they first explained this too me, I wondered if this was for real and if this was even legal (this was a few years back and I was really gullible). When they brought me on set to start filming my mom and I were cracking up. There was this guy dressed up as Jesus holding a bucket of guns that he later hands out to the kids. He eventually he takes out this fake big shotgun and hands it to like this eight year old girl. The message he tries to get through his video is to end gun violence by kind of making people realize how horrible guns are and that since so many people have them in the world why not just give them to children.  Of course he's totally kidding.  He is really trying to prove his point on making people realize what a bad idea guns are.  He had us sing a song "Arm the Children" while we jumped around waving the fake guns in the air.  Christopher Titus was a super nice and funny guy who just talked and talked to all of us. At the end of the day he even gave us one of his CDs from his comedy stuff.  He said something really funny that I still remember to this day. We were just about to start filming and one of the guys was joking around and saying something like "This awful what were doing" or something like "Is this even legal?"  Then Christopher laughed and said "Yeah...we'll be remembered for this one. This kids will remember as the day Christopher Titus got arrested. They'll look back at this video in twenty years and say hey remember the day that Christopher Titus got arrested?" Everyone was laughing really hard. Christopher Titus also laughed at his own joke.  It was a pretty short day and somehow he made it fun even though it was a serious message he was trying to convey.
