Casting

Casting

Brian Korteling:

Brian Korteling is the artist of our chosen track - "Information". Since he lives in Norfolk, Norwich, Sam and I where keen to get him involved, in the hopes that it will make our music video production different from the rest of the class. 

As an experienced musician and artist, who also has his own website, we had no issues with casting him as the lead performer in our music video production. We've already filmed Brian and the results where satisfactory to my opinions. I especially enjoyed the mise-en-scene of just Brian's face in a close up, I find that shot is very iconic and memorable.


Myself - Austen Nuttall


I volunteered to star in our music video as a young teenage male who goes around taking newspapers and magazines to hang on his bedroom wall within our music video. I've had previous acting experiences as I also acted in two A.S. thriller opening media productions. The first being my own, with a group member called James Kent and the other, a classmate's production for the same media course. The below video is my version of edit to last year's thriller production:


As an amateur photographer taking A.2 photography I've often experimented by acting and modeling in different ways, this for me has also helped with my on-screen presence and courage while filming our production and will continue to do so.

Here are a few photographs of myself posing for the camera. The first two are self-portraits I have taken, the first where I have held my Cannon 600D in front of myself, and the second by using a mini tri-pod mounted on the dinning table.

Watermarked with "Austen Nuttall Photography" since these also appear on my (work-in-progress) blog: austennuttallphotography.blogspot.co.uk

The below photograph is taken by my friend Jade Ashby.

This just also happens to be in the style of image and costume which is seen within our filmed footage so far:
