Male/Female Model wanted for music video (Wallingford)

Hi All

We're a little local indie band and we're making a music video! We might not be the next OK Go! but we're gonna give it a shot. Anyway, we need one boy and one girl for the video. It will be filmed in black and white and consist entirely of headshots. In the video you will have thought bubbles superimposed above your head containing thoughts like "It's like watching a unicorn get run over by a bus" and "That was a close one, homie." An ability to convey silly, absurd thoughts with facial expressions definitely a bonus. Please send head shot if you can.
