R+P Post 27: Casting

As a group we decided that all four of us will be the band members because:

• We all have been taught and have experience in how to lip sync properly 
• We have all been given performance coaching
• We know our vision better than anyone else so it's easier to direct ourselves
• This project will be our priority so we know for certain that we will all be committed and turn up on time and carry out this project properly and with dedication
• We're all really enthusiastic about performing and even though none of us have done any professional dancing before, we're confident that if we work hard and rehearse well, we'll be able to pull it off

Band Members:

Angela - 17 (Character Name: Angel) 

                      Gift - 17 (Character Name: GiGi)

Thakshana - 18
(Character Name: Shaana) 

                               
                                     Monica -17
                                     (Character Name: Monigal)

                                 

We also needed to cast four guys to be in our music video. Since our main theme is passion and female empowerment we thought that we could all use one guy each for our individual performance section to portray passion and use them as 'props'. Seeing as they were mainly just going to be standing there as props we decided that they didn't need to have much experience, so the main priority was availability and commitment. 

We asked a few guys that we knew and initially some people said they weren't available so we proceeded to ask other people and eventually managed to get four actors for our music video.

Below is our final cast list for the guys:
