CHARACTER LIST

THE BOYFRIEND PLAYED BY ED FINDLEY

The boyfriend will be played by Ed Findley. We chose Ed for the role as he is a confident actor who can always stick to different roles when asked to. His general attire and persona also fits very well with the genre of our music video, as he is heavily influenced by the indie style and music. He also is the bass player in the band we are using, Chambers, so that will help to link the narrative to the band very easily. It also means that in our production we will not have to have someone pretending to make the band shots look realistic by playing the instrument, as he knows the song very well.

THE GIRLFRIEND PLAYED BY ME

I have been chosen to play the role of the girlfriend as we couldn’t think of other girls that would be suitable for the role due to the need of someone who looks quite alternative. I have also been good friends with Ed for a long time so acting with him wouldn’t cause any awkwardness as we are comfortable with each other. Also the role of the girlfriend is a small role so I will not be in the production a lot.

EXTRAS AND BAND MEMBERS

The extras that we will be using for the narrative are the band members that we will be using. The reasoning for this is that we want to show how the boyfriend is close to his band members and find them to be very important, as this is the case for most bands. We thought that this would be a good way to show how people in bands often struggle to maintain relationships as their fellow band members become a more important aspect in their life. We also chose the band members as they are also quite confident with acting, and also fit the genre very well.
