Actor profile

As a group we chose to bring in our group of friends as actors/participants in our music video as it made it easy to film as we could just take the camera whenever we went out as a group. We also made this decision as we all bounce off of each other and

get along really well always enjoying ourselves which gave us good shots of just a group having fun which is what we needed. Within our music video we tried to ensure that at least 3 or 4 of the actors were the same as before to make it consistent as it was difficult to get everyone together at times so we ensured that some of the people were consistent and there to help the audience relate and enjoy the video.

We chose our friend Chelsea as our main protagonist as she was also going to be featuring in the performance shots as the singer and artist. This meant that when we was going out to film it was almost vital that she came along as she was going to be the main focus of the video as the video was based around friendship and enjoying yourself as that is what the song is about and we as a group wanted to subvert from the typical love story stereotype as we felt it was cheesy and expected and wanted to avoid it.

To avoid our music video conforming to the typical stereotypes love story we chose to edit our footage into a montage of shots as it allowed us to edit in random shots of friends enjoying themselves and that s why we chose our own group of friends as we all get along and enjoy each others company and wanted that to come across through the music video as it would allow the audience to relate to the music video which firs with Blummer and Katz theory of Personal relationship as the us of our own friends within our music video as the actors allowed us to make the video enjoyable and relatable.
