Casting

Reasons for casting

The main reason for casting the people in the pictures above were mainly due to them being the actual band members. When discussing using their music with them they were very keen to be the actual people in the video. I took this into account and decided that I would use them. This would give a natural feel to the video, as they would be able to lip sync and intrument sync to the music quite well, as they already knew what they were doing.

Costume Planning

For the costume planning I asked them to wear casual clothing, due to the music video being a performance video I decided that them wearing casual clothing would be more authentic, as this is what type of clothing they would normally perform in, for live performance situations.

Props Preperation

The only props needed for the music video are the instruments and music equipment, items which the band members are bringing to the filming location.

Items include:

2x Electric Guitar.
1x Bass Guitar.
2x Microphone.
1x Drum Set.
2x Amplifiers.
2x Microphone Speakers.
