Casting for Music Video




With much discussion with my group, we have decided with a female and male actress and actor for our video; with the narrative of the male protagonist chasing after his "girlfriend." However, we have certain profiles for our cast. For example, the female protagonist has to be of course pretty, preferably with longer hair and a slender figure. We have found an actress for our female, Izzy Davies. She fitted our profile perfectly, as she was tall and pretty, also she has had previous experience with acting, as she played a female protagonist in a previous thriller for another group in year 12, therefore we know that she would be up to the task. Izzy is also reliable, so we know that she will turn up for shooting.

For our male actor we have found Guy Walker. We had a certain profile for the male, for example we need a strong male protagonist who is handsome, but also has the ability to act out a part in chasing after a female. Although, with both our actor's we have to make sure that they don't look to young, and too much like sixth form students. However, Guy comes from a background of acting as he has been part of a Drama group for many years and has acted in various plays, therefore he knows how to act in a mature manor which will be perfect for a love story.
Overall, we are happy with our two main protagonist, and now all we need to find is extras to play the part of the "masked creatures" which will follow and haunt Guy Walker. We have decided that we need around 10 extras, and they will have to be dressed in pure black to leave there real identity hidden and left as a mystery to the audience. Therefore we can have both males and females.
