A typical clip for dreamies who want to travel from smoky cities to lightful landscapes... An imaginative home-made animation, on a really nice song :)
Architectural visualization artist and Grizzly Bear fan boy Gabe Askew has directed a beautiful animated fan video for the song "Two Weeks". According to the director, the story - about uncertainty, love and loyalty in relationships - was inspired by song's lyrics: The lyrics, to me, told the story of a relationship where one person is uncertain of the others loyalty. You get sucked up into the daily grind and forget to tell the one you love how you feel. They get insecure and worry that you aren't committed. And the line "I told you I would stay" is like a battle cry for fighting to keep your relationship together when it seems to be on the brink. Read more about the making of the video here.
