9 Things You Didn't Know About OK Go's Zero Gravity Video





Source: THE MOSCOW TIMES

  1. By now, you have probably seen "Upside Down & Inside Out" a couple of times. In fact, if you are even remotely interested in music alive, your social timelines are probably full of OK Go's latest video. Shot in Moscow on board an S7 plane, it shows all the fun that can be had if the music is on and gravity is off.
  2. But even if you have watched the clip to the point where you know exactly when which band member floats where, there are still a few things that you probably aren't aware of. Like the fact...
  3. 1. ...that bass player Tim Nordwind and director Trish Sie respond well to authority, especially if it is voiced in Russian and tells them to get back to work.

    1. Behind The Scenes post 2 of 2:The video is finally out, and the link is in my bio. This is a clip from our fearless directors explaining the final scene called Thunderdome. They do the best they can before they are called back to duty! Hit the magnifying glass 🔎 on the bottom tool bar to see more Behind The Scenes clips like this. There's a playlist of posts from @okgo, and me, and @damiankulash @arossexperience @danielkonopka @bigbadtrish @geoffshelton #OKGo #S7
    2. 2. ... that there were 58 "puke events" during filming, because zero gravity isn't exactly easy on the stomach.
    3. 3. ...that their accommodation gave OK Go the complete Russian pastel experience.
    4. OK Go went to Russia to make their new video, and this was Tim's hotel room. He claims he switched beds every night. We are hours away from UPSIDE DOWN & INSIDE OUT. @timothynordwind ALSO, tune-in to @goodmorningamerica on Thursday a little before 7-9am EST for an #okgo surprise.

    13. 8. ...that Russian attitudes to cinema and general fun clearly were a large influence on filming, as evidenced by this photo taken by director Trish Sie.
    14. 9. ...that, in the tradition of the great Yury Gagarin, OK Go! also like to start things off with a nice big "Поехали!" (Let's go).
