who was the woman in video killed the radio star
Video Killed the Radio Star The music video for "Video Killed the Radio Star", written, directed and edited by Australian Russell Mulcahy,[59][60] was produced on a budget of $50,000.[3] It was filmed in only a day in South London,[59] and was edited in a couple of days.[60] Mulcahy asked Virginia Hey, a friend who was a model and aspiring actress, to dress "in a silver costume and be lowered via wires in a test tube." There were about 30 takes required for shots of the actress in the tube. The tube falls over in the video, although Mulcahy claims it was not intended to be shown in the final edit.[59] Hans Zimmer can be briefly seen wearing black playing a keyboard,[61] and Debi Doss and Linda Jardim, who provided the female vocals for the song, are also seen.[62]
