So that it has a distinctive personality, unique appearance, and unique action characteristics, to leave a deep impression on the audience. Through literature analysis and theoretical integration, the importance and evolution of character design in Chinese 3D animation are explored, and how traditional culture is integrated into modern animation character design is analysed. The results show that integrating traditional cultural elements with animation design with ingenious creative conception and novel and unique expression methods can enhance the cultural value and market competitiveness of Chinese animation, show a strong originality charm while inheriting the classics, and open a distinctive and full of potential innovative development road for China's animation industry
