The 1975 'Girls' Music Video Remake - My Role

Describe your role, how you feel about it
My role, the bassist for the 'first part' of the video, exist of playing a bass guitar, moving backwards and forwards looking either straight ahead into the distance or down at the guitar. The character is mostly stationary, and bounces using his heels on the spot, or bobs his head to the beat. The character does not look at the camera, and is occasionally seen laughing or smiling at various points in the video.

For the two sets I am in, my costume does not change so it saves me having to find extra costumes and means that the shoot is less hassle.



To make sure I do not repeat the same motion on camera when filming the scenes, I will vary my movements as follows:
  • Bouncing on the heels
  • Rocking back and forth on the spot
  • Nodding of the head to the beat of the song
  • Shuffling of the feet 
  • Tapping of the feet to the rhythm of the music 

Is this a challenge for you, or something within your comfort zone?
I feel that this should not be too challenging, however I will need to work on the performance aspect as to be as similar to that actual video as possible, seeing as this is a shot-for-shot project.
