● Personality
○ Sometimes strangers have strong personalities
■ Can immediately pull a basis for creating a
character from a short interaction
■ Just need one personality trait to work off of or
a general vibe from them
○ Friends are a good place to pull from and combine
personality traits
■ Both positive and negative traits are needed for
a believable character

● Best for personality building rather than physicality
○ Doesn’t result in much variation for physical design
● Mix and match your own personality traits
○ Focus on one or two main traits
○ Add your own flaws to your characters
● Helps describe character and determine how they act
○ You know your personality best and how those parts
of you react to situations
○ Performance for animation - acting is reacting
○ Builds depth and realism

● Dreams vary greatly and with that, comes an infinite supply of
weird characters, and worlds or stories to put them in
○ Get the basics, fill the rest out later if there’s potential
● Realism is important to character design
○ Adds relatability, a reason to care, dimension
● Get this realism from parts of real people you observe/meet/know
● Add flaws - your perceived own or others
○ Using your own adds a special knowledge in how that flaw
or insecurity impacts the character
● Mix and match personality traits that work together
● Add a little bit of you in the character to understand them more
