The princess and the frog- Charlotte

Character Design

I really like the character-Charlotte- in The princess and the frog. She is so lively and slightly annoying but in a funny way. The way she moves is so exaggerated and she's passionate and over the top about everything. She is your classic blonde bimbo girl who makes everything much bigger than it is. She works well in contrast to Tiana who is very much the opposite. 
I love the way Charlottes clothes fit perfectly with her personality-over the top. I also like the way they move with her and the slight delay to portray the floatyness of the dress. I also like her face like how its kind of chubby and cute and innocent. My favourite scene to show her is

For some reason it cant find this when i search for it on  here? It's such a funny scene. She has to be centre of attention all the time. This has shown me that designing a character is all well and good but they also need to have personality to make them come alive. This is something i would like to look further into as i am quite interested in character design.
