Lead Singer:
We have decided to cast Romany Henry as our singer after auditioning her where she proved that she would match the song perfectly. She was confident in front of the camera and matched the star image we were looking for. She had great presence and took any direction we gave her exceptionally well. We knew the track needed to feature a face that would match the voice of the track, someone that looks individual and good looking. This is why we picked Romany as she matches the description perfectly.

Drummer:
Our drummer needs to look slightly individual and different to suit the track. We wanted Tom Saville for our video due to his long hair and cool dress sense however he is already taking part in many music videos so he is unable to take part in ours. Therefore we are going to audition Callum Henderson, who plays the drums, to see how he looks on camera. Although he doesn't quite fit the track, we are thinking about applying dirt/ make up to dirty his face. He is a fantastic drummer and I'm sure will do a great job on the video.
Boy Dancer/Actor:
We are lucky enough to know Josh Baker who was a contestant on Got To Dance and Britain's Got Talent who is an amazing dancer. Therefore it was a no-brainer to cast him as the lead dancer in the video. We asked him to perform some of his work for us and we watched many of his YouTube videos in which he proved he was perfect for the part. Below is just one of his many fantastic dance videos to give an insight of his capabilities. He is the dancer on the right. He has also attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School in which he was given acting training.
Girl Dancer/Actor
Gracie, also a dancer, is Josh's girlfriend who we have cast as the lead girl. She is also an amazing dancer and we have seen this through videos that Josh has produced. One of the main reasons for casting her is the fact that they will have great chemistry on camera due to the fact that they are in a long lasting relationship. We realise the risk of them breaking up before the shoot but I am in the process of casting back up dancers just in case they don't turn up, despite committing to the project.
