Music Video Actors

The actors we will be using for our video will be the band Raided By Waves themselves (James Bennett, Charlie Caine and Navid Asghari as well as Lucy Maylin who will be playing the role of our sound/runner girl.

James Bennett - Lead Singer

Reasons for choosing the band are simple; they wrote the song and are natural performers who have previous experience of shooting a music video so know what to expect and how to conduct themselves. They will also be important in the creation of a authentic and professional video.

We chose Lucy because she fits the criteria we are looking for in the sense that could be considered as a typical "Rock chick", she is also model who has experience of being in front of the camera which will be useful when shooting the video, not only this but she also has a variety of tattoos which helps stick to stereotypical imagery associated with women within the Rock genre. Again we hope that Lucy will help us to create a more realistic and professional video as a result.

Preliminary Task Actors

Actors are important In any music video. We have chosen to use Dan Rock as the actor for our Preliminary Task.

We chose to use Dan because he looks very similar to Ed and has experience in both drama and music related performance. In order to create the best video possible we decided he would be a perfect choice. We may also use Will Tickle (http://willticklemedia.blogspot.co.uk) as an extra in the background of the video if needed.
