Music Video; Casting

ORIGINAL:
Our characters for the music video go as follows:

Guy- Jesse
Girl - Harri
Girl's friend - Matt
Teacher -
7 Students - Rebekah Watts, Matt Northwood, Guy Walker, Catherine Riley, Justin Pryce, Louise Stagg, Freya Lincoln.
Band (only used for close up of instrument shots) - Matt, Mark, Sam.

We have decided on these characters because they are friends and are all reliable.
We still need to upload pictures, but our main characters are chosen to fit in with the indie/edgy scene as this is their style.

CHANGES:
Our cast for the music video completely changed due to unreliability in our chosen actors, they instead went as:

Guy - Josh Waterman
We chose Josh as our lead male role as he is reliable and was free to film when we needed to, he fits the role well as he has quite an average, indie style, wearing cardigans and jeans, although we would have liked to use someone a little edgier, like the style of the Blighters. It was also a good idea to use Josh as the male role as him and Yasmine are dating so there is perhaps some chemistry between them which the camera could pick up on, it is more natural between them.

Girl - Yasmine Galt
Yasmine was chosen as our second female role as she has quite a similar style to Josh, simple and individual. She is also good at acting and very reliable too!





Other girl - Gillian Mee
Gillian has a slightly different look to Josh and Yas and was chosen as our second female as she was very responsive and fitted the role well, she has a good style and can pull off the 'hot girl' character that Josh's character also dates.





Teacher - Mr Bloomfield.

Classroom students: Justin Pryce, Ben Pant, Theo Elliot, Emma Wilson, Sally Bailey, Sarah Pooley. We used different people from our sixth form who were available to film, to make it look as natural as possible. They didn't need to have many acting skills, simply acting like they were in an exam!
