No More Page 3 campaigner Kate Hardie and lighting technician Andy Lowe have released a video of them putting together a collage made from cutting out pictures of men and women published by the Sun over several months this year.
It required some analogue production techniques - no photoshopping here:

The conclusions of No More Page 3 campaigners after surveying their work?:
The Sun’s response?
What was @TheSunNewspaper's response to such a visual demonstration of their sexism? Via @thei100 pic.twitter.com/Qyk9RgWwvJ

• This article was amended on 2 December 2014 to remove an embedded video.
• This article was amended again on 3 December 2014, after No More Page 3 clarified that it could not guarantee that the collage included every picture of a man and woman published by the Sun from a specific six month period, and that the captions in the video were based on comments made by No More Page 3 campaigners after looking at the completed collage - not a comprehensive statistical analysis of every picture. The headline previously stated “What does a collage of every person pictured in the Sun over six months look like?”, while the intro previously referred to “every picture of men and women published by the Sun over a six-month period”, rather than “pictures of men and women published by the Sun over several months this year”. The copy also previously stated that the captions included in the piece were “The video’s conclusions?”, rather than “The conclusions of No More Page 3 campaigners after surveying their work?”.
