Diversity, Stereotypes, and Representation Diversity is not common in the field of animation. This leaves many character designs being made up with the same formula which consists of skinny conventionally attractive characters with light skin and light eyes.

George Lucas was a very credible director because he was influenced by the small town he grew up in Modesto. According to The Secret History of Star Wars, “Lucas’ father felt that George never quite measured up to his ideals of what a good son should be.” (Kiminski 9) Lucas seems to be comparing himself to the main character in Star Wars: A New Hope, Luke Skywalker.
