Fightstar Mercury Summer Video Shoot
On Thursday the 29th of January, I was selected to take part in Fightstar’s new music video. Fightstar is the a band started by Charlie from Busted, so I was really excited to be taking part in music history!
The shoot was taking part in a North London studio on Green Screen. I was going to be featured as the ‘love interest’. The shoot revolved around memories and forgotten happiness, so I was required to have six different ‘looks’. The shoot was being directed by Ben Strebel and Dylan Byrne, two amazing directors from Just Another Film Company.
I was placed on a automatic revolve also in green screen and was asked to stare in various expressions and at various marks in the room whilst the revolve revolved! As I turned to face the camera, I would then be asked to take my stance into action - be it jumping for a balloon, or dancing, or curling into a ball as if to sleep.
Vintage Swimwear!
In post production, I believe they would edit me to suddenly appear as if in a snap shot of a memory - reflecting on the songs lyrics of happy times now forgotten.
Full Geek Chic!
The band each took their turns on the revolve and mimed to the very catchy song which I couldn’t get out of my head for days!

I really hope you enjoy the video, it was great to be shot in so many different looks, as it shows how versatile I can be. The day was a great success and I totally LOVE the video. The directors Ben and Dylan were fab, and the rest of the crew lovely. The stylist and makeup superb and the atmosphere really special. I hope they are as all chuffed as I am with the finished product!
Love Lucy

Hi Lucy, thanks for the glowing report. I must say you were absolutely brilliant, you really understood the part and performed on cue. Also your physical stamina was a force to be reckoned with, completely unphased by the work demanded of you, you managed to maintain a consistent enthusiasm and delivery even after 10 hours of spinning round and round on the squeaky turntable, and you didnt even get dizzy! Thanks again and I hope we can work together again sometime soon
Brilliant
good work!
Omg Lucy you are one stunning lass! I’ve seen Charlies band several times, but their new stuff is brilliant, and to have such an amazingly pretty girl like you in their video, makes their new music so much more exilerating
thanks so much for an amazing video, and song! best yet, hope to see more of you in the future
