Drama Project - Character Profile

About the Character (Keith)

In my head I picture this character to be a bit zany, someone who is constantly trying to be funny and fit in but turns out he’s not funny at all and not many people like him even though he is quite harmless enough. I think he’s got to come across as a bit of a loner due to his awkward and strange personality and even though he appears simple and happy go lucky underneath he probably has a lot of problems but he always tries to laugh them off and see the brighter side of things. He always goes to this pub as he has somehow got it into his head that it’s his local and all his ‘friends’ go there but that isn’t the case at all as they would probably all know him as crazy Keith but really he’s just misunderstood and craves company whether it’s direct or indirect. He is someone also that doesn’t like to break the routine, because the pub is somewhere he goes a lot and he always has the same thing and sits in his same favourite seat so he likes his daily comforts. At the beginning and end of the film I just want to show him walking into the pub and then a shot of him walking away at the end to not only symbolise the beginning and end of this short ‘journey’ but also keep the mystery around this strange character so you don’t know where he’s come from or where he’s going and apart from this one thing you don’t really get to find out about much of his life outside this one place.
