In order to develop our character, we began with our interview:
Questions To Ask Cristi
1) What bout you do you think represents you clearly & vividly to others?
2) What is your aspiration in life?
3) What do you think is an issue that people should take into more consideration?
4) Sweet or salty?
5) What is a very sensitive topic for you to talk about?
brainstorming our character
we came up with the idea of making out character a boy (opposite sex)
we both have big cheeks which, in a way, alludes to the stereotypical characteristics of an individual who strongly enjoys eating, which we both really do
our “guy” has strong eyebrows because as a child, I was very, and due to that, I have very bold eyebrows
green eyes because Cristi has green eyes. We wanted to include 3 physical parts that are just like ours
we both agreed that light and curly hair is the way to go. Cristina has light hair, and I have curly; a good mix of both
our character is not overweight, but he’s not very skinny either. We wanted to incorporate an issue or struggle that almost every single person has
this is what motivates him to go to the gym, but in the end, he will always find himself ordering insomnia cookies at 1:30am
we wanted to convey that our character is well cultured. He has lived in many places & has a mix of different races. just like us
he speaks 4 languages: in reality I speak 3 & Cristi speaks 4
he has a smaller brother whom he is very overprotective since he gets bullied at school, & our character absolutely DETESTS bullying
COLLEGE? he studies sound production at NYU. he works a lot better under pressure, just like the both of us
he is a huge Harry Potter fan even though he is 20, & his life goal is to have enough money to take his future kids to Disneyland
his favorite band is Guns N Roses
He has a geometric family tree tattoo
with all this…we present to you CHRISTIAN ALEXANDER THIELMAN ARAUJO
