Reading 2009

Adam Buxton presents BUG - The Evolution Of Music Video (Hosted in association with BFI Southbank)

BUG is about giving big screen exposure to the most awe-inspiring, innovative and downright brilliant music videos being made around the globe today. Hosted by Adam Buxton (of Adam & Joe fame) – 6 Music presenter, actor, music video director himself – the events have become an essential forum for aspiring film-makers and fans of music video alike. BUG is about new creativity, new talent, and the new democracy of filmmaking that means a great little film can be made by a 17 year old with a stills camera, or by Michel Gondry. 

It’s also about what people are actually watching when they come home from the pub: the really cool, really creative and sometimes really ridiculous viral hits that you might find on YouTube or elsewhere online. This special edition of BUG at Reading 2009 promises more brilliant clips rarely seen on a big screen (or even a TV screen) and some incredible online discoveries – with insightful and hilarious contributions from Adam. Come feast your eyes – and, of course, ears.
