We had a look at the list of people who have various music and singing lessons in school and wrote names down to have a look at.
for potential A2 leads we have:
- Max Wright (guitar as well)
- Joel Baine
- Joey Brown
- Luke Bedford
drums:
- George Robertson
We also made a list of male singers in the year below:
- James Hadida
- tom Goss
- Felix Wood
Georgia typed up the lyrics to the song so that we could print them and give them to people to read while we screen test them and then give them to the singer to learn.
During our lesson we screen tested Luke and it went really well. He grooved and moved with the music really well and has a great smile. He is expressive and not awkward in front of the camera which is key.
At break I'm going to try and get hold and max and Joel to do a quick screen test.
At break I managed to get hold of max and Joey and got them to do a screen test.
JOEY:
Joey was very good, not awkward in front of the camera and really confident. Definitely a shoe in for the lead.
MAX:
Max was good, nice energy and again not awkward. However, he isn't really the right vibe for the video.
This is George who we want for the drums. he is really good which helps as there is no sheet music for the song so he has to improvise. He vibes with song song well and we think he will mesh with the rest fo the group.

Good progress last week, well done. Please don't forget to complete the post about analysing genre conventions (when you compared the six video thumbnails).That's an important one! Fingers crossed you guys can complete casting tomorrow and then it will be full steam ahead...
