Ethan Brown, 17, Male

Charmaine Abotchy, 17, Female
Role? The girl who is playing hard to get with Ethan but then eventually falls for him.
Why have we chosen Ethan?
We chose Ethan do be in our music video as he has previously stared in an A2 music video before; from experience he will have known what half to expect. He has quite a confident nature, so we didn't think he would have a problem singing into camera and acting in a 'loving' way towards another actor for the music video. As he previously was a drama student we also thought that this would be beneficial with him being able to perform well. As well as this, Ethan has the right sort of look for our music video, he wears dark clothing which is what we want in our music video.
We have chose Charmaine to be in our music video, as like Ethan was previously a drama student, so would be able to act as well as being able to follow instructions well. Charmaine hasn't performed in a music video before, however with being a drama student along side Ethan, (meaning they know each other well) and her confident persona, we thought that she would be reliable in our music video. Charmaine also has the perfect look that we want for our music video, again like Ethan she wears dark clothing and she also has numerous piercings which fits well with our genre.
Along with Charmaine's confidence, the costume choices give her a voyeuristic look; this will appeal to a male audience and fits with Laura Mulvey's theory about the 'male gaze'.
