Insomnia casting

Name: Ben Hesketh

Age: 22

Role: Lead Singer

We cast Ben to play the artist in our music video because he wrote the song which makes him a natural candidate for being the lead. Ben is also Nathan's brother which made contacting him easy and he was more willing to be part of the video.

 

Name: Amy Petts

Age: 20

Role: Female that is mugged

 

We chose Amy as the girl who gets mugged because she looks innocent which makes the audience feel for her when the mugging happens. She is Tom's sister which makes her easy to contact and reliable. 

Name: Benjamin Seager 

Age: 20

Role: Mugger

 

We chose Ben to act as a mugger because we knew he could handle the acting. He was used in the last group project (AS Level) and was great at the fighting/stunts and drama which is what we needed for this music video.

Name: Jon Petts 

Age: 49

Role: Paramedic

We chose Jon to play the paramedic because he had a realistic costume for the role. He is also Tom's dad which made contacting him easy and he was willing to play the role for us. There is only 1 scene which Jon is in so the acting isn't much which probably made it appealing.
