My Performance Inspiration

When preparing to film my scenes as Bea, I mainly referred to this video of Black Honey performing Spinning Wheel, the song we use for our video. I found this really helpful in characterizing myself as Bea as watching the way Izzy Philips (the real singer) lip-syncs and moves around provided the inspiration I needed to create the slightly wild and very intense character I intended to portray.

Ellie Rowsell (lead singer of Wolf Alice) in the music video for "Yuk Foo" also provided as an inspiration for my performance - Yuk Foo has an infinitely more angry vibe than Spinning Wheel, which I tried to incorporate into my characterization as I wanted Bea to feel like someone who could essentially kick off at any moment - this linked directly to how the screams throughout Spinning Wheel come as a shock and juxtapose the Western feel of the song.
