Characters

Ian Kelley
Hi, I’m Ian Kelley. I’d like to start by thanking the Academy, my mom, my dad, and my two dorky brothers… CUT! Okay, so as you can probably tell, I love movies, and I even make my own. Sometimes I picture the people in my life as actors in TV shows and movies. My mom says I have an “overactive imagination,” my teachers say I’m “gifted,” and some people think I’m weird. Whatever. It’s cool being me. Come to think of it, my life just might make a pretty cool TV show. Hmmm, I wonder…

My Dad Ken Kelley
Dad owns the only piano store in town. And we all have to work there once a week! And let me tell you, there is nothing worse than working for your dad.

My Mom Vicky Kelley
If I had to pick the normal person in the family, it would have to be my mom. She also works at the piano store, and she has to put up with all of us. It makes me wonder how she copes sometimes. Overall she’s pretty cool, but when she gets pushed too far, LOOK OUT!

Korey Kelley
Korey is my middle brother. He’s a total schemer. When we were younger he’d help me make movies and pull pranks and stuff. But we don't do that as much anymore. I guess he figures that now that he’s a teenager he’s too grown up for that kind of thing.

Maxwell Plunkett
He’s Brady’s long-suffering, barely tolerant, monumentally miserly father, who is more concerned with running a tight ship than enjoying the unpredictability of family life.

Grandma Kelley
My dad’s wiry, wrinkly mom is one of the toughest old women I know. Hard-boiled. Maybe it’s because she’s Scottish. Whenever I need some help or when I’m in a jam, she always has some wicked advice for me.

Kyle Kelley
Even though he tortures me, my oldest brother Kyle is pretty cool. He’s 17, drives, and can stay out late. He’s even got girlfriends. Kyle keeps his distance from me because there’s six years between us, although he says it’s because he doesn’t want any geek to rub off on him…

Grandma Menske
Besides being one of the nicest, vacant ladies you’ll ever meet, Grandma Menske has two amazing skills: making pancakes and playing hockey.

Tyrone Washington
I’ve gone to school with Ty since grade one. Ty is totally cool and we do just about everything together. We like the same bands, jokes, and TV shows. I know he’s a good friend because even when some of my ideas get a little out of hand, he’ll still be there for me.

Sandi Crocker
I’m not even thinking about a girlfriend, but if was, it would be Sandi. To be brutally honest, it’s probably because she’s so cool; always the voice of reason. You’ve got to respect that. She also laughs a lot and can crack a wicked joke!

Odbald
Odbald is a little weird and always smells like cheese, but as dad says, "He has a good heart, is a heck of a piano tuner, and most of all, he works cheap." Dad lets Odbald sleep in the workshop at the store.
