Animation character is the main object of animation aesthetic.As one of the elements of animation character design,costume design plays a role in revealing the personality of characters,reflecting the background of the times,promoting the development of the plot,and also has the function of conveying cultural connotation.As an indispensable part of China's pattern culture,Chinese traditional plant patterns are the embodiment of thousands of years of cultural precipitation and national spirit,and highlight the profound cultural heritage of the Chinese nation.There are many connections between the character costume design and traditional plant patterns,studies the ideas and methods of integrating Chinese traditional plant patterns into the design of animated character costume,deeply excavates the modeling implication,national characteristics and cultural identity of plant patterns,and extracts the traditional cultural elements beneficial to the character costume design,it will be of great significance and value to enhance the nationality of animation characters.Based on the research of animation character costume design,this paper taking Chinese traditional plant patterns as the breakthrough point,conducting in-depth exploration on the combination of costume design and plant patterns from both theoretical and practical aspects.Firstly,the animation character costume design and Chinese traditional plant patterns are studied,the function of character costume design and connotation of traditional plant patterns are analyzed,and the internal similarities between them are explored.Secondly,the classic plant pattern design methods in China are analyzed and sorted out,combined with modern design concepts,four pattern design methods are summarized,including symmetrical design,balanced design,repeated design and hierarchical design,so as to provide feasible design ideas for creative practice.Finally,the design practice is carried out according to the ideas and methods summarized in the research,and the cultural implication contained in traditional plant patterns is applied to character costume design,so as to create animation characters with national characteristics and in line with the contemporary aesthetic.On the basis of enhancing the decorative aesthetic feeling and expressiveness of the character's costume,combining with the plant pattern,the characteristics,psychology,identity and status of the character are deeply shaped,so as to achieve the dual goals of strengthening the nationality of the animation character and carrying forward the traditional culture of our country.
