This document discusses the actors, costumes, and props needed for a music video. It identifies three actors by name and describes their roles and qualifications. The main character will wear casual clothes to emphasize his persistence, while the guitarist and drummer will wear similar semi-formal outfits with Celtic references to identify them as band members. The key props are a drum kit, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, and microphone for the band to play their instruments, as well as speakers to add realism.

Props
In mymusicvideoI don’thave verymanyprops,mostof themare either musical instrumentsor
speakertogo withthe instruments,here isalistof all the propsthat I shall needformy musicvideo
and whowill use them.
Prop Who shall use it Why
Drum Kit Thiswill be usedbyMatt
Lynn whoplaysthe
drummer.
The reasonthat I needthis
prop isdue to the fact that I
wantmy actors to be playing
the same instrumentsthat
were inthe original music
videoasit makesitmore
matchingto the song,as that
the soundwill alsobe visually
represented.

Bass Guitar Thisshall be usedby James
Downeywhothe playsthe
guitaristinthe band.
I wishforthe actor to use a
bass guitaras it givesthe
musicvideoasense thatit is
real and that the musicis also
beingvisuallyrepresented.
AcousticGuitar Thisshall alsobe usedby
JamesDowneybutI shall use
editingtomake himandthe
otherversionof himplaying
the bass guitarin the same
shot.
I wishto use thisas itvisually
createsall the parts of the
songas the bassguitar
createsthe bass visuallyand
the drum providesthe beat
so I wishforthe acoustic
guitarto provide the rhythm.
Microphone Thisshall be usedby James
Downeywhenhe isplaying
the acousticguitar.
I chose to use a microphone
as it isa props that isusedin
a lot of musicvideosanddie
to the fact that thisis alsoa
performance videoasthisis
rock genre I thoughtI would
needa microphone.
Large Speakers These shall notbe usedby
anyone buttheywill be in
the sceneswhere the band
are playingasto emphasis
the realismof the bandby
usingall the equipmentthat
youexpecta bandto use.
Speakersare verycommonin
a lot of musicvideos
