Final characters and casting

As our cast plans have not changed since the initial plans, here is a recap of the plans:
For our music video, the main characters will be:

• Viking group
• The children playing at the end of the video
• The parent, who calls the children in for lunch

The Viking group should bring some realistic footage to our video. We plan to have an authentic looking battle, which will allow the audience to engage with them by seeing the action of their fighting. The cast for this group will be the Wuffa Re-enactment group of Gorleston.

The children should hopefully make the video more relatable. All kids have a great imagination, so by showing this through a pretend/realistic battle, we can really show the full extent of this imagination. For this cast, we plan to use my cousins and my sister. This will mean we do not have to worry as much about finding parents to sign permission slips, making the process much easier.

The final character, parent, will hopefully bring some comedy and cleverness to the video. As he turns to reveal a hidden Viking weapon, the audience will become engaged as they realise that he could have been a Viking all along. After talking to the band at the VIP at their Norwich show, we are hoping that one member of the band will be able to play the headmaster, and hopefully other members will be able to be included too. If not, the person cast for this character will be my uncle Mike Woodrow.
