Casting List

Sanam Harrinanan

For our music video on the song ‘Mine’ by Beyonce featuring Drake, there will be three main characters who are shown in the music video.

The first character will be Emily Cherry who is playing the role of the main artist Beyonce. Emily will be playing this role as she fits in with the generic hip-hop/R&B look. She is slim, pretty and has attractive features which makes her appealing to men. As well as this, Emily has a background in drama which helps as we plan to make our music video a narrative so we need someone who is able to portray and show a widen range of emotions. As well as this, Emily has a basic knowledge in dancing so she is able to go a few abstract dance movements to go with the beginning of the song as it starts of slow. Emily also has long hair which will flow easily in the wind as we plan to make her look peaceful and innocent to show the artist as being full of emotions and loveable for the audience.

Jebba Ali will be playing the role of the girlfriend in our music video. The girlfriend for our music video is made out to look and seem vulnerable, innocent and upset. Jebba fits in with this role as she as well has a background knowledge in drama meaning she is able to perform this role as planned.

The character who is playing the boyfriend’s role in our music video will be Zaccius James. The boyfriend in music video is made out to be shown as someone who likes to party, drink and have no emotions towards his partner. However the character also has another side to him which is loving and affectionate but is not always shown. Zaccius fits in well with this role as he is able to perform and behave like a party animal but at the same time is also able to show love and affection to someone. As Jebba and Zaccuis are close friends, they suit the role of the couple as they work and get along well together meaning they are able to show the audience a strong and passionate connection as well as a powerful realistic argument in which couples tend to have. This is why they have been chosen to work in our music video.
