Category:Joe's Roadtrip Characters
The Duct-Tape Salesman (Albert Goldman) is a character in Joe's Roadtrip. He is of German descent.
Role in Joe's Roadtrip
[edit]Albert sells Joe a roll of duct tape. He insists on a certain brand for Joe's needs and is very knowledgeable of duct tape.
Character
[edit]Creation
[edit]Albert was created out of a simple 3D mouth model found on Turbosquid. Rodrigues then expanded from there, creating a body, arms, legs, eyes, and hair. Although he is a rather simple character, he opens a new category of characters in Joe's Roadtrip, the average obese man.
Personality
[edit]Albert enjoys his work and life, but is not very kind towards others. He said Joe's hostages were taken for a "lame" reason.[1].
Analysis
[edit]Albert is a representation of an average obese person. Although he was created for comical purposes, he also serves as a symbol to society that obesity is an issue. Rodrigues himself wishes to stick with the comical purpose because it pleases his viewers more to "watch a comedy than to watch a serious obesity documentary"[2].
