So ... Pixar forgot how to Character Design or they are just lazy?

the increasing need for CGI animator forced schools to adapt fast and only teach their people one way to model a human in 3D.
This is why every show looks like the same template was loaded and edited.

This is not same face like Disney 3d. But since they are the same medium, in 3d having the mouth being lower is usually ideal for more expressiveness, both characters are kids so go though the basic character designs (rounded faces and big eyes) There's not much to change without reaching uncanny valley.

>character designer can only design one face

Maybe they should hire a better designer.

>>90765464
if you are a character designer and you literally have to sameface a mexican boy and a white girl you should quit your fucking job

So can you describe what's identical in this two pictures besides round faces and the noses?

I'd they were pandering to a minority but the kid looks like he has downs

Frozen and Tangled have the exact same character designers and nobody gives a shit

I'm more bothered Pixar is just taking the Book of the Dead and removing ron perlman.

i'm pretty ashamed my mexican fellows are saying BoL was bad and Coco seems more mexican than BoL

>>90765705
No I'm pretty sure I've seen people bitched about before once.

>>90765441
This is wrong

>>90765738
Book of Life wasn't good and barely focused on the Day of the Dead mythos of it.

>>90765738
>and Coco seems more mexican than BoL
It does.

>>90765889
how? brown Riley watching Pedro Infante movies?

>>90765889

Nah. I guess it has a more modern look Coco takes place in todays Mexico so it's easier to identify the surface level similarities (Pedro Infante and the Golden age of Mexican Cinema).

Since BoL takes place in post Colonial, pre Revolution Mexico (at least the story) It does seem more foreign, Spanish even (how everyone dresses, the toreo , sword fighting) But the themes and the very designs are Mexican.

theyre not eve similar

Making faces in CG that can emote properly is a pain in the ass. They know that those facial structures rig well, so they keep using them.

The Sony movies (Hotel Transylvania, Cloudy) are way better than Pixar at that sort of thing and they manage to give each character a different face on a smaller budget.
