"Rat Wranglers" project. Man is what you would call an average guy. He has nothing too spectacular about his to make him interesting. He lives by himself, works a mundane job, stays in most weekends, it's boring but he is content with his life. Because of his typically mundane existence, when a rat comes into the picture he is completely thrown off. He is jumpy and cowardly when it comes to seeing a rat, or when strange people break into his house.
"Rat Wranglers" project. The Spokesman is a sleazy, cocky individual with a charming and suave exterior. Despite being a member of the Rat Wrangler team, they have little to no respect for the customers they serve. Their primary role is to follow the Rat Wranglers around and hype them up through narration, rather than actively participating in the extermination efforts.
"Rat Wranglers" project. Charming and goofy, the hand puppet is dramatic and expressive through their actions. They are very scared of the hazmat workers, as they threaten the life they have built. Having lived in the Man's house for years, the puppet has worked hard to start a life for themself. They are trying to make their child and spouse proud.
"Rat Wranglers" project. The hazmat workers are characters with no dialogue, so their body language and physical comedy are crucial. They are aloof and intimidating figures, sneaking around in the shadows. Rather than speaking, these hazmat workers let their actions do the talking, although this occasionally results in violence. They harbor an extreme hatred for rats and believe that once Alberta has its rat problem under control, the next step is riding the world of rats.
"S.C.O.F.F" project. Hipster looking, overly confident and opinionated, but actually lonely and looking for belonging.
"S.C.O.F.F" project. Looks motherly, This is the only time she has to herself and she’s just here to enjoy a movie.
"S.C.O.F.F" project. 2 men, 2 women. Hipster looking, glasses, facial hair for the guys, a group of opinionated film nerds.
Soft, Sarcastic.
