Band Image

Adjustments and Final Decisions

After we had our first run through of the song with the band we decided to change the second guitarist Chris for our backup guitarist Peter.

Peter came across as more enthusiastic and confident on the camera and was able to wear Chris' leather jacket making him fit into the band really well.

Peter is also a drama student so was comfortable on the camera whereas Chris didnt seem so confident. Peter has also agreed to take on the role of guitarist and is reliable for future shoots.

Drummer

The decision to use Luke as the drummer was a last minute decision as up until then Lizzie was going to dress as a boy and be the drummer. As it didnt look as realistic and she didnt look enough like a boy we found Luke.

As Luke is a drummer and suits the part more with his long hair and indie look he was a much better choice and the group agreed.

Guitarist Two

We chose Chris to be our second guitarist for the band purely because we felt that he had a good look for the band (long hair, leather jacket...) and he would really suit the bands image.

Also as he is the boyfriend of Amanda we knew he could be counted upon to be reliable and turn up on time and at every shooting.

Guitarist One

We casted George as the first guitarist as we were confident in his ability to be on camera as he is drama student and also has a love of music that shows in his performance. When we decided that the band should go for a 'smart casual' look we knew that Georges wardrobe is like that so it would make it easier for us.

Lead Singer

As a group we decided that I would be best suited to a lead singer because they knew that I was confident enough to sing in front of a crowd when I was britney in our Britney video and as I am part of the group they knew that I would be reliable and make a good effort.

The lip synching task seconded the decision to use me as the lead singer because they felt I was perfect at exaggerating my lip movement and looking like I was really singing.

I also look the part of the band and have a good wardrobe for all different types of style.
