Inside The Animation Demo Part 6

The next character in the Animation Demo is known as the Young Bully, but it is the 2nd character from the script known as Army of Frogs that I was given known as Arabanoo, who is known as a jock with an elitist attitude. The line I was given is him talking to Darrell, the other character I was given, “I don’t care who your father was. You’re no(changed from “ not Kulipari not Kulipari”) Kulipari. You don’t have the stuff…and you never will.” Darrell’s father was a Kulipari, known for being a warrior race. Arabanoo was attacking his father and his heritage. First of all, he was trying to gauge Darrell’s competiveness, so he can spark a fire in him, so he would be more of challenge to him and gauge his own prowess. Secondly, he thought that his drive to be a warrior is hilarious and crazy. For me, this role seems, by definition, animated, would be fun to play, and makes me feel like this is a conflict of jealousy between what could be an older brother and younger brother. When older brother gets old enough to establish himself, he starts to want to distance himself from his younger brother, so his accomplishments is not relegating just to his younger brother. He wants to be man himself and the younger brother has hard time disconnecting with his older brother. He loves his older brother and he wants to be by his side, but as brothers, they seek to become individual men with their own accomplishments, who must learn from life’s lessons and become great man by understanding their circumstances, thriving, enduring, and ultimately, conquering them. The younger brother can be cocky and seek to prove anyone wrong, but the older brother is sometimes arrogant by his experiences and wants to prove that he is better than the younger brother. I know that this is not the measure of all older brother/younger brother conflicts, but for most brothers or family members, it is hard not to feel like you need to measure up to each other. It is interesting to feel and play both sides of the coin. Next time, we will look at my 7th character in the Animation Demo, the Old Wise Maven.
