Band Member Profiles

Kayvon (lead singer, guitarist): Scott

Scott is charismatic, confident, inspirational character. He has a lot of screen presence, moving to the music and using all of the space on the set. We looked at George Ezra and Robert Milton (Dog Is Dead) for inspiration and observed how they performed. They both look very comfortable in front of the camera and are relaxed but confident. He also looks into the lens a lot so that the audience is directly addressed and feel more connected to his character.


Alice (bassist): Ash

Ash is a cool character. She doesn't move as much as Scott does on the stage and doesn't look into the lens as much. She moves around on the spot and looks relaxed playing the bass, mainly looking down or at Scott. We looked at Hayley Williams (Paramore) for inspiration for her character. Hayley Williams is the lead singer of Paramore and is the main focus in Paramore's videos. We liked her confidence but felt Ash needed to be a slightly more reserved as she is not the lead. She does still look confident though and is an aspirational character.


Gavin (drummer): Michael

I am a laid back character. As I am the drummer, I am not able to move around during the performance shots but I do make use of my space, moving my arms quite a lot and interacting with Ash and Scott. We looked at Chris Tomson (Vampire Weekend) and Suren de Saram (Bombay Bicycle Club) for inspiration. These drummers are reserved but confident like Michael. Michael is the joker of the group, as shown in the prop shots where he makes the other band members laugh and messes around with them.
