Casting in my opinion is the biggest aspect because I need to select actors that like to be infront of the camera and that will do a good job and not laugh or get shy therefore I have selected some people from my class to fulfill this role which I will be explaining both of their strengths and weaknesses. I also want to make sure that the people I choose to cast dont feel like they have to be in it, this is because they may not end up doing a good job and I would need to get a different actor and do it all over again which I dont want to be doing as it is a lot of time being wasted.
Potential Character 1 - Stephen Olatunbosun
This is Stephen, I would say he would be my main singer because as by the picture, he likes being in front of the camera. I have also spoke to Stephen and he said he would like to be the main singer in my music video meaning that I dont have to worry a lot about the main person because I have a strong candidate here. The only problem with Stephen is that he laughs quite a lot in front of the camera, this isnt because he is nervous, it is just how he is. Stephen is quite flexible as well so I will be able to base my filming around his schedule quite easily.
Potential Character 2 - Thomas Kelly
This is Thomas, I would say he is my 2nd strongest actor because he is not very camera shy but he is not a huge fan of acting. I have spoke to Thomas and he said he would like to feature in my music video but I am unsure of what role he will play when it comes to the actual filming of it.Thomas would be good for either of the roles but I am still unsure of what his best one would be. A weakness for him would be that he isn't
the strongest actor.
Potential Character 3 - Jake Liggins
This is Jake Liggins, he would be my 3rd strongest candidate because he is ok infront of the camera and ok at acting but I think Thomas and Stephen are more suitable for the roles it comes down to when it comes to me choosing them. Jake would be more suited to playing the instruments because he knows how to play the drums and guitar meaning it would be bad for me not to use him in my music video.
Potential Character 4 -Lewis Swannell
My 4th potential actor would be Lewis, he is not so confident in front of the camera but he said he wouldnt mind doing small sections in my video which is good of him. Lewis would be in front of the camera for some clips but he would like to do scenes in which he doesnt have to face the camera because he doesnt like the feel of it.
