Elizabeth Warren

The more exposure I get in the film industry, the more addicted I become! Earlier this week I appeared in yet another music video, but this time my role was a bit smaller and the artist ~~a bit~~ a lot bigger. Once a person gets involved in projects like these, regardless of the part you play, you see the amount of time, work and effort that goes into making a success of a 4-minute video. So I can only imagine what it must be like making an entire movie! Respect. Not only are The Parlotones one of my favourite bands, but they are the biggest rock band in South Africa. They have won several awards (even MTV Africa awards), so I feel totally honoured to have met them and worked with them!

The music video was shot in Observatory, Cape Town. I'm not exactly sure what the concept is behind the video, because there were many different scenes, but I'm sure the end results are gonna rock. There were scenes of Kahn Morbee, the lead singer, alone in front of a green screen, scenes of the group together with people (or actors if you will) protesting in the background, police scenes and soccer scenes. I was in the soccer scene. A group of us, wearing soccer supporter's gear, had to act as if we're on a 'fan walk'. Basically just walking, looking happy and cheering as if our team just won. While doing this, Kahn walks through the crowd towards the camera. It's probably a 10 second shot, but took us over an hour to perfect! 'Reset', 'marker', 'action' or 'wait for my signal' are words I heard all day! Even though it was hard work, I felt so bummed when they shouted 'that's a wrap'.

During breaks we talked to Kahn, who is uber nice and kinda hot in real life, and took photos! Here are some behind the scenes photos, especially for you!
