How does Ayu's team find extras for their music videos?

Again, I'm pondering this other question. How does Ayu and her team find extras to be in he music videos?

What I mean by extras is like the boy & girl in "Vogue, Far Away, and Seasons", the mother & daughter in "Dearest", the dancing people in "Greatful Days", and the boy, his parents, officers, and man on the tower in "Endless Sorrow". Those are examples of what I mean by extras.

Do they look in talent agencies or what? I'm really curious.

Can someone please explain this?

Arigato-gozaimasu!

casting agencies or extras agencies
they would have to go "talent shopping" in different agencies, and auditions of course

most likely they send out "invitations" to different agencies to their auditions and the agencies pick out people from their roster that they think would be suited for the PV. and then they advertise the auditions somewhere - like at a dancing school, acting academy etc. - to find the people they want.

That ponders me too.....almost every MV that I've seen has Amercians except "Voyage". No that there's a problem with it, but.....it's just something to think about.

Yes, there must be a purpose.....wait...but "RAINBOW" had Japanese people and a few Americans in it, but did you guys notice that almost everyone is wearing black except Ayu & the "reduplicated Ayu"?

Strange...
