A. Research Findings
44
45
For the first is the depiction of the main charater. The researcher
found that of two types of depictions of a character namely flat and round
character, in this film the depiction of the main character was a flat
character. There were several scenes and dialogues in the film that have
shown that the main character in the Zootopia film named Judy Hopps was
a character that was included in the flat character. Judy Hopps was the
main character in the film Zootopia, Judy was a rabbit who has a dream to
become a cop. All her friends, even her parents, didn't believe and
underestimate Judy's dreams and desires. To proved it, there were many
things and obstacles that Judy had to go through. She also managed to
prove all the talk about her dream and her wishes and it came true.
Nothing has changed from the main character, making the character said as
a flat character.
First evidence:
Gideon Grey: Bunny cop? That is the most stupidest thing I ever heard.
Judy Hoops: It may seem impossible to small minds. I’m looking at you
Gideon Grey.
00:07:50. There it was illustrated that at the main character of Judy Hopps had
the ambition to become the first rabbit cop. As the story progressed in the middle
to the end of the story, the Judy Hopps figure remained with his stance and
succeeded in realizing her desire. It was described that Judy was a different with
other bunnies who became a farmer. As a child, Judy said loudly that she wanted
to become a cop. Because of her dream, she was belittled by her friends because
she didn't exist and there would not be a rabbit policeman in where she lived.
Gideon Gray, one of Judy's friends, said that all Judy's dreams were just stupid
things he had heard. But Judy gave confidence and gave a statement that if there
really wasn't a rabbit cop in her residence, then she would be the first to become a
training, Judy experienced obstacles that she had to face alone to prove
that she could become the first rabbit cop. After many efforts, she finally
managed to graduate from the police training. Judy has proven that she can
47
become the first female rabbit policeman in her place of residence, even
In this description, it can be concluded that the main character of this Judy
Hopps is depicted with a flat character because there are no changes that can
surprise the audience.From the first time Judy said she wanted to be the first
rabbit cop in her neighborhood, in the end she was able to prove that she could
become the first female rabbit cop in her neighborhood. As a spectator of the
Zootopia film, there was one scene that shows if Judy had given up on her dream
but that did not affect the overall depiction of the main character Judy Hopps in
the film. Judy was still portrayed as a strong figure in her stance.
Second evidence:
Mother: What your father means, hon, is that it's gonna be difficult,
impossible even... for you to become a police officer.
Father: Right. There's never been a bunny cop.
Mother: No.
Father: Buunies don’t do that
Mother: Never.
Father: Never.
Judy Hopps: Well... Then I guess I'll have to be the first one. Because I am
gonna make the world a better place!
