Absolutely loved this. Never heard of the artist before this (though clearly she is very popular!). She seemed to have a lot of fun making the video.
The only thing that disappointed me was learning that a bunch of people had to volunteer their time to make this. Surely this made lot of money for the artist and video producers, could it really be that the margins were too thin to compensate all the people working on this?
I hear you but, to be fair, she wasn't popular when this came out.. She was just some nobody artist. This went semi-viral at the time and that's how she became more widely known.
Fair enough. And I'm sure the people who volunteered were probably thrilled to be involved with the project, it really is a brilliant piece of work.
