Once we had the locations in place and we had planned to travel down to Devon in late August, we thought that we had the casting sorted, but unfortunately the dates clashed with a family holiday so our female actor, Emily Chawawa, was unable to come with us. Our male actor, Fraser Stannage, was also at 'Reading' festival at the same time, but fortunately we were able to pick him up en-route.
We were then stuck without a female actress and after asking many of our friends at such short notice, Emily's friend Emily Greig volunteered to join us and help with out music video. It is a shame that Emily Chawawa, our original actress, couldn't join us due to the West-African connotations of 'Kankouran' and Emily being of African origin and coloured skin it would have worked extremely well, however we were very grateful for Emily Greig to step in at the last minute.
Emily also takes media studies at a different school so we thought it would be perfect so she could give her creative feedback on our ideas also and will also understand our intentions when making the video as she is making her own at the school she attends.
