IMEEM EXCLUSIVELY PREMIERING METRIC SPLIT SCREEN VIDEO
Head over to www.imeem.com/indiescene to see the exclusive premiere of Metric's split screen video to "Gimme Sympathy". This alternate video shows two videos simultaneously - the official music video on the left and behind the scenes footage of what was happening during each part of the video shoot on the right. It's a unique glimpse at what it takes to make a music video and all the hard work that creates the final video.
Here's what Metric has to say about the video:
We had a lot of fun making this video. We shot it at our old stomping ground Sound Academy in Toronto with director Frank Borin. The entire video was shot in one take, so you can imagine the amount of preparation that went into getting it right. We decided to film as much behind the scenes footage as possible so that we could show you how it went down...Check it out here!
