2. LIAM HEMMINGS
Actor Description
Liam will be playing the main character for this music
video. He will play a character who is quite unfortunate
in life and seems disheartened throughout the music
video and he eventually builds up the confidence to
speak to girl he likes before being rejected and beat up.
He will also play the character of the person performing
the song on stage. Liam is the perfect actor for this role
for numerous reasons. Liam has a lot of acting history
and has performed in numerous productions throughout
his life and has also studied performing arts at GCSE
and A-Level. I believe that Liam will be able to carry out
this role effectively due to his history with acting.
Furthermore, Liam is also in a band and his role in the
band requires him to sing and play the guitar so this will
allow him to perform the performance based scenes
effectively to a good standard. Liam also has quite a
strong stage presence and this helps to convey the idea
that he is unfortunate in life.
3. HARRY GEORGE MYERS
Actor Description
Harry will play the character of a popular boy (in contrast
to Liam) and the boyfriend of the girl Liam fancies. This
role will require Harry to confront Liam and then proceed
to beat him up. I believe that Harry is the perfect actor
for this role for numerous reasons. Firstly, Harry is
someone who has a passion for acting. He has studied
performing arts at GCSE and A-Level and has been part
of a production group since the age of 9. Harry has also
studied and produced a lot of stage combat scenes so
this will be extremely beneficial when we are producing
the fight scene as he is someone who has a lot of
knowledge and experience in this department. Harry is
someone who is hoping to have a career in Performing
Arts so this role will be ideal for him as it could further
his career. Harry has also played a lot of aggressive
characters in plays so this will help him carry this
experience into this acting role. Harry also has quite a
muscular build so this helps to accurately represent his
4. SAVANNAH FEELEY
Actor Description
Savannah will play the role of Harry’s girlfriend, who is
seen as a happy, confident and popular girl in this
production. Savannah will be playing a confident
character and this is beneficial because Savannah
studies performing arts and has a confident stage
presence. This role requires her to reject Liam and pour
a drink over him, point Liam out to her boyfriend and
then after Harry has beaten Liam up, she will shout at
Liam for making advances upon her. Savannah is
someone with a lot of acting experience and she
currently studies performing arts at A-Level and has
appeared in numerous productions throughout her
acting career so hopefully she will be able to carry this
experience into this acting role.
5. KANE TAYLOR
Actor Description
Kane will play the role as an extra who runs outside to
help Harry beat Liam up. This character is one of Harry’s
best friend's and his actions in this music video clearly
highlights that he always has Harry’s back. Kane does
not have any acting experience however, this is not
crucial for this role as it just an extra. Kane had some
brief acting history when he appeared in my opening film
sequence last year so I am hoping that he can carry this
experience into this role. Kane would be suitable for this
role at it is filmed at his house and I think that he would
enjoy playing this role. Kane has a relatively muscular
build so this helps to portray the idea that he is playing a
character of an aggressive/violent person who is beating
Liam up. Kane is quite small and this could highlight that
he has small man syndrome or could be a follower in
order to look out for himself.
6. TAYLOR CHRISTIAN CRAVEN-CARTER
Actor Description
Taylor will also play the role as an extra who beats up
Liam. Taylor does not have any acting experience
however this role does not require any as it is an extra
role which only requires him to beat up Liam. Taylor is
someone who has a large physical presence so will help
to represent his character more accurately as he is
playing someone who is going to beat up Liam. Taylor
has a similar role to Kane. He is one of Harry’s best
friend's and his actions in the music video accurately
represent this.
7. HENRY WILSON
Actor Description
In this music video, Henry will play the role of a
peacemaker who breaks up the fight between Liam,
Harry, Taylor and Kane. Henry does not have any real
acting experience however, this role does not require it
because it is an extra. Henry has a relaxed personality
and in my opinion this will help him to play the role of a
peaceful person who breaks up the fight. He also has a
calm demure so again, this helps to match his character
of the peacemaker.
