"Character design is a combination of physical trails and narrative"
Narrative/storyline defines personality, gives context (genre, location, setting) there for has to feed into look and design of the character.
the face is the primary channel to express emotion. (-a reason for the many large headed character. A lot can be said with posture and body language - this allows personality that to be identifiable in silhouette.
Solarski - states that how a character carries their physical weight can tell us about their personality - which body part they lead with is important
Hero- leads with their chest
Pelvis-Laid back/Lazy
Head- Intelligent
Knees- coward
Cuddy
power and dominance resolves around expanding power! Expand-take up-space, Weakness cowers up, makes your self small
Shaggy, leads with Pelvis
Squidward, intelligent, leads with head
