Music video

About the music video, released on 17 November 2013, director Tim Fox said: "The song Symmetry is about two people becoming so symbiotic they start to mirror each other. I didn't want to do the obvious of using a mirror/kaleidoscope effect on everything, so instead we followed the theme of planets and things aligning. The song takes place under the ominous presence of a black hole its dark forces pulling everything together.

"We used a few hands-on, DIY effects such as waving pieces of cloth around Gabriella – me and the crew are just off screen waving them frantically! We also used a projector to align a projection of Gabriella singing onto Gabriella – it took a bit of explaining but you'll understand when you see it."
