Hi, Chjofy here (that was my username before Adisabel). I'm the absolute madman who animated and edited this whole project. I wanted to say hi and try to make you understand the... scope of this and tell you a couple of things.

This was a big project. The biggest project I've ever worked on, at least by myself. I couldn't really even give an estimation on how much I worked on this - feels like a thousand hours.

This was my first time animating anything and I don't know how to draw so what this is is just, tracing countless frames, over and over again. If you're wondering about the framerate it should be overall around 12 frames per second, roughly one every two of the original frames.

The question that comes to mind is obvious. WHY?
Because I love Doctor Who so so dearly and I have been wanting to make a Doctor Who video for a long time but with each song I considered I eventually always came back to this idea, this song, this project.

Was it worth it?
I don't know. You tell me. I like it, but I do feel the effort might not... Show enough for the amount of time it took.

Why is this animated?
Because Doctor Who has been going on for a very long time, it looks... Different now from how it used to look, and aesthetically it really doesnt mesh, at all. Because this video with this song could only really work if it was animated. Because I had specific sections in mind and those would've only worked like this.
