Pete Losasso - Johnny |

Being one of the most talented actors i know, as well as a very good friend of mine, i chose my friend Pete Losasso to play the lead character in the video, as filming would be alot easier and i knew he could interperate what i was telling him to do very quickly. I told Pete to wear a hoodie as originally i was going to shoot a sequence in which he would have his hood up covering his face, but other than that i told him to wear regular grunge style clothing to showcase Jonny as a normal guy.

Tom Roberts - Drug Dealer |
I chose my friend Tom Roberts to play the drug dealer, purely and simply because he looks shifty. This part was originally going to be a much bigger one, with far more interation between the drug dealer and Johnny but unfortunately i had to cut it due to time restraints. In terms of Tom's costume i simply told him to wear his regular clothes as the image of how he usually is, is the exacxt image i had for the drug dealer in my video.

Josh Martin - Angel |
Another very talented actor, choosing Josh to play the 'nemesis' in the video was a no brainer. Specialising in expressionistic and grotesque acting styles again i knew that he would be able to encompass the idea of his character so well and so easily. Josh's costume was a tricky one, originally i was going to make him wear a suit but he was also going to be joined by a group of people wearing suits and on it's own it didn't really provide the same effect, so in the end i told him to wear regular clothes but to black up one eye so that he has a relatively subtle imperfection/signifier of his character.
