The BBC has announced plans for a restructure of some of its services. As part of that restructure, 6 Music, a radio station that caters almost perfectly to my tastes, is to close. Adam Buxton, one of the DJs on the station, made a little song to encourage people to show their support and try to change the minds of the powers that be. I have made a little video for that little song. I have made it very quickly (by my standards) so it's a bit wobbly in places.
For more information on how to make your voice heard and maybe grant 6 Music a stay of execution, go to www.love6music.com and follow the steps there to contact the BBC Trust.
I thought it was fairly obvious, but apparently not. The man with the stripe on his face is meant to be David Bowie. The tune is David Bowie's "Changes" and the new lyrics were written and performed by TV's Adam Buxton with backing vocals by top pop motorway man Tom Robinson. I did the moving and the faces.
Any hair that you don't recognise, except for the Bowie one, is from Arealight's Custom Work - google for link.
A tutorial that describes the process for the face animation is linked on the description of my Fight Like Apes film. Go there for that.
