Casting

Pilgrim is  3-piece band that consists of Kayvon, Alice and myself on lead guitar, bass guitar and drums respectively. We kept everything within the group to make scheduling and organisation easier. The chemistry between the characters in the video will hopefully be more genuine as we are all good friends within the group.

Kayvon Nabijou

Kayvon is the most confident out of the three of us. He is our singer and guitarist in the band. In our preliminary task, he was cast as the lead singer. He played the role very well so it would be silly to not take advantage of him for our video too.  The short video below shows him in this lead role.

 

Kayvon's character is cool, confident, stylish and charismatic.

 

He has three different costumes throughout the video and one make-up look.

 

 

Alice Cahill

Alice is the bassist in our band. She has experience acting from our preliminary task and can play guitar so her performance should be confident and convincing. Having an aspirational female figure in our band breaks conventions and appeals to a wider audience, broadening our appeal.

Alice's character is a quirky, aspirational tomboy.

She has three costumes and two make-up looks.

Gavin Fraser

It is hard to have a convincing drummer in a video if the actor doesn't actually play the drums. Luckily, I do. This is one of the main reasons that I have been cast as the drummer for Pilgrim. I was also the drummer in the preliminary task, although my role is more important in this video than it was in the preliminary task as our band interacts more than the band in our remake did, meaning I had more of a background role in the remake. I can play the song confidently so playing convincingly won't be a problem in the video.

 

My character is cool, confident, laid-back and funny.

 

I have three costumes and one make-up look.
