1. Patient/Main singer/Electric guitarist: played by Dylan Lief
- Dylan is a one of a kind human. He is passionate about grunge rock, its his life, he loves to sing in his spare time and therefore we instantly knew he would put in the work to get the lip syncing perfect. Additionally, he was apart of the group so we had access to him at all times which was needed as a total of 20 hours was spent working in the studio filming and learning. Furthermore, Dylan had studied all about what type of band we were inspired from, such as Biffy Clyro and Nirvana and therefore absorbed their rock like tendencies to become the perfect singer and electric guitarist for the job.
Originally we chose a friend called Noah to play this role, however after one day of filming we decided that his acting skills weren't sufficient as he showed little passion. We realised that are decision in the first place was biased for we only chose him as he had similar music tastes to the genre our band were in. Therefore we switched actors to Dylan who immediately showed more passion for the role and expression in his lyrics.

2. Base guitarist: played by Ethan Rand
- Ethan was an easy decision to accept for the role of the base guitarist, it was a simple job where only passion and the art of moving two fingers on guitar strings was needed. He understood the small role or the supporting artist he would play. He fulfilled our vision to perfection by showing less passion and being somewhat quieter than Dylan which was needed to help identify the main artist clearly by watching. Nonetheless, Ethan practiced flawlessly as he is apart of our group and he knew what type of person he had to adopt to make this role the most effective.
3. Drummer: played by Sam Pins
- Initially another group member Jared was the designated drummer in which he was being filmed on the first day of shooting. We soon learned that Jared was an unnatural fit for the role, especially due to the fact drumming consisted of the most co-ordination and natural ability, which one either had, or didn't. Therefore we stayed late after school and watched the prestigious music students of JFS perform in hope we could snatch one to be our holy grail drummer. Head of recruiting, Jared Rand had set his eyes on Sam Pins, a one of kind drumming talent, the schools best. We approached him with a firm contract and he happily accepted. Drummer Pins didn't need much practice, he hit the drums to the beat a coupe of times and was solemnly in rhythm with the rest of the band and the music. We began filming after the roles had finally been occupied and we knew we were going to smash it.
