Broom Cortez is a character in Joe's Roadtrip, and represents the creativity and randomness that can be achieved with modern computer animation. He is of Spanish descent despite being born and growing up in Aruba.

Role in Joe's Roadtrip
Broom acts as Joe's sidekick in Joe's Roadtrip, although he gets separated from Joe halfway in the movie.

Creation
Broom was created when Rodrigues was in desperate need for a simple character. The broom idea worked. It wasn't until Joe's Roadtrip that Broom can truly be seen and understood.

Personality
Broom is a very laid back individual. All he is trying to do in his life is sleep on a desk. Once he returns home he has a Jamaican accent, which shows more of his relaxed personality. Broom does not show much emotion, but it can be seen he does not want much from anyone and just wants to chill on the beach.

Analysis
The Broom was created to show Rodrigues' random side, he felt this would be a perfect way to show his viewers how random he can be. The Broom fits the random description because it is inanimate in real-life but he has a very human personality in Joe's Roadtrip. He has the ability to walk and defy the laws of gravity and physics, causing even more confusion among the viewers. His random appearances in the movie also show his random style.
