Styles part 2

so we have seen Disney and how they have a generic style of characterization, lets quickly see some other IP's that have the same form of generic stylization

Wallace and gromit

So similarly to Disney, Wallace and gromit do have big eyes, but in a simpler more spherical way. they also have very large hands simple shaped heads. but that doesn't take away from the way in which they are fantastically animated, much like morph, his simple body and head make for a very plain character, but also adds ways in which to add emotion and feeling in an otherwise simple character

So we go back to my previous question of 'does the success of an ip lie in the styalization of all of the characters' we need to assess more characters from wallace and gromit to have a strong case.

here is a character from the curse of the wear rabbit:

so as we see the style is very similar across the characters we have seen, the simple eyes, the mouths that have very simple definition which makes their phonemes appear simple.

so after exploring two well known companies, I can safely come to the conclusion that the characterization is crucial to your success an an animator. as both of these companies have a very solid similarity between all of their characters and the demographic in which love these characters can identify in future whether or not something belongs to that universe.
