Actors

We have chosen our actors/actress according to the character we want them to play. For the main character, the painter, we wanted him to be quite a casual, typical boy.

We decided this because we wanted to make it as realistic as possible. 

Our girl actress fits into the character we adapted for her very well, because we wanted her to be like 'the girl next door'. This means, very innocent, sweet and simple.


Our final actor is the girls boyfriend. We chose this particular person because we thought he suited the macho look of 'the other guy' and the harsh reality of falling in love with someone you can't have.

Star Image
The star image of McFly is a down-to-earth rock band, we showed this with our actors by using good looking but not unattainable type people, so that the audience can relate to the music video.

Organic VS Synthetic
The artist is fairly synthetic this means that the actors in it should be good looking and attractive to the viewer. Usually the band would be in a synthetic music video as the artist is sold on their looks as well as their music.

Target Audience
All our actors are in the age of out target audience, also as this artist mainly appeals to young teenage girls we wanted to use relatable and good looking actors to attract the audience, and to keep them watching.
This artist can easily be compared to other Boy Bands and their videos. Such as One Direction, The Wanted, Union J etc.

Genre
The actors relate to the Genre of pop, as the actors are attractive and the lead actor could fit in with a boy band.
