In 2009, we shared with you a series of behind-the-scenes videos leading up to the historical inauguration of President Barack Obama. The video - Inaugural 'Pre-Game' Behind-The-Scenes Video - showed the different angles available to those covering the event. In 1992 we found ourselves on the North Riser, and every inauguration since we have been on the south riser. This year, we opted for the Ballustrade - a change up to be certain - something new.

Below is a video which illustrates from start to finish the set up we used to capture the swearing in ceremony - once which lasts for approximately 60 seconds. The set up and configurations, a bit longer. IF you're getting this in a feed, click here for the link.
