John Cleese - Ministry of Silly Walks
The way Cleese stays so upfront and straight faced, even in the most absurd conditions, is a trait i want to capture in Alejandro. Sure he's passionate about his work, but he's a pro. He stays in complete control... Most of the time...
Bruno Tonioli
Alejandro communicates with his hands and face. Although not as flamboyantly as Bruno, Bruno's energy is definitely on the right track. Alejandro would be a little bit more refined, more reserved.
Victor Meldrew
When pushed, Alejandro can lose his composure. The way Meldrew becomes angry with everything around him, and just starts hating on everything, is where i want to take Alejandro's outbursts. He's so reserved, so having such an extreme outburst will work to great comic effect.
Marcel Marceau
Alejandro's idol. He, and me as an animator, have, and will, learn a lot about mime by studying his performances.
