My Role

Describe your role, how you feel about it

 

I am the drummer for 2 of the locations: the shots by the pool and the shots by the car. My character, George Daniel, generally looks disinterested in what is happening and plays the drums fairly unenthusiastically as he is unhappy about the video being so 'poppy'. The shots that I am acting in are shown below.

Pool Scene

 

In all of these shots, my character is generally looking down at the floor or around the set. He doesn't move much apart from the occasional head-flick. During the pool scene, he only has one drum as is clearly not really playing along properly with the song.

 

 

 

Everything George Daniel is wearing is black. His hair is tied back in a ponytail and he is wearing a t-shirt under a blazer with the sleeves rolled up, skinny jeans and boots.

 

Is this a challenge for you, or something within your comfort zone?

 

I think this will not be too challenging. I already play the drums and have learned the song so playing it convincingly will not be a problem. As long as I can pull off the bored look, I'm sure I'll be pretty comfortable with the role. I also don't have to look at the camera at all which is a relief.
