Casting for "Our House Is Dadless"

Due to producing a music video I will need a cast to be involved in the production, similarly to directors needing a cast for their films. Casting is important when producing a music video as they help to create the directors imagination for the video. 

In my video I won't need many cast members, although the original song "Our House Is Dadless" by KiD BRiTiSH is a group of six, I have chosen to only have one main singer which not only makes it easier to film I also don't have to be worried about certain people within the cast not turning up and playing their part. For other cast members I have chosen people who I believe are reliable, however if they begin to slack I will need to talk to them and persuade them to be more reliable and help more often. Nevertheless this method doesn't always work, therefore if the same person/group of people keep choosing to mess around I will have to tell them they are no longer in my music video. 

Cast Members 
Protagonist - Tom Card 
Two members of Madness - Dad and Andy 
The Mum - Mum or Sharon Card
Stranger - Dad
Young girl - Hollie Dearing / Helen McCarthy 

The reason I have chosen these people is because I believe their reliable and will contribute in any way they can. Some cast members said last year they'd be in my music video when I told them what the Media Studies course consisted of.
