Summertime Magic

Hi everyone! I am making a music video for the song Summertime Magic by Childish Gambino for my directing class. The music video is going to tell the story of a couples’ relationship transition from perfect to ultimately destructive. Synopsis: The girlfriend becomes almost too hopeful and slowly starts to overbear the boyfriend, and this leads the boyfriend to become detached and eventually cheat on her. It will have a lot of cool shots and will be filmed over the course of two days: either Sep 24 and 25, or Sep 25 and 26, but the schedule is also flexible depending on your needs. There will be slight intimacy such as holding hands and slow dancing, but nothing beyond that. The first day will be shooting all the outside shots in the Boston gardens and different locations downtown, and the second day will shoot the apartment scenes at my place in East Boston. Contact me if you’re interested!

Cast positions description

  • 2 leads – I need one male actor to play the slowly detached boyfriend and one female to play the hopeful, overbearing girlfriend.
  • 1 minor role – I’m also looking for one female to play the one who the boyfriend cheats with.
