Chosen Cast

Elliot Morrell
As my music video will be taking the form of a narrative with aspects of performance features I had to choose an appropriate model to play the part of the "heartbreaker" during the storyline. It is very important to have a close relationship with the model as it will help the coordination of the production and allow me to take complete control as director. Fortunately I have known Elliot for 3 years therefore know he is very organised and will take on any challenge or task i ask him to perform. Elliot Morrell Is a student from Beverley 6th form currently studying his A-levels with the hope of gaining a place at university in the future, myself and Elliot are close friends which will help in the production and filming stages of the creation of my music video.
After brainstorming different model choices I personally asked Elliot to take part in my music video defining the role it entails including the commitment he would need to have to the project. I am very glad he accepted my request and am looking forward to shooting the music video with him. I am going to use Elliot in the shots associated with the female models memories of their relationship and the good times they previously shared. I need to research different costume ideas which could be appropriate for the country genre focusing on the old traditional interpretation. Presented below is an image of myself and the male cast lead showing our close friendship.

Millie Bardsley 
After I chose a suitable song to create my music video and decided on the mix of a country/pop genre i decided Millie's image and style would be perfect for the style I wanted to create. She has a very unique look which is ideal for any director to work with as her image will make my video stand out and hopefully gain in popularity. Millie studies at Wyke College and hopes to achieve a career in Classical civilisation. One of her great hobby's is acting therefore she is studying drama at Alevel. The opportunity of being involved with my music video will give her valuable experience in this area of performance and as a result benefit both myself and her. I know Millie from college and also have a close friendship with her which as previously stated is beneficial as it makes the creation of production plans easier to create and improves the organisation stages. I am looking forward to working with Millie during my music video and think the whole process will be a great experience.
