About

Although his full name is Eric Theodore Cartman, he's usually referred to only by his last name (Cartman). He's one of the main characters in South Park, along with Kyle Broflovski (his frequent rival), Stan Marsh, and Kenny McCormick.

Cartman is the fat, self-centered asshole in the group, often concocting schemes to make money and/or procure Colonel's chicken. He absolutely hates Kyle, despises hippies, and can't stand Family Guy. But he does have a soft spot for Mel Gibson, his stuffed animal Clyde Frog, and cats (especially his own cat, Mr. Kitty).

After years of trying to discover who his real father is, he recently found out that he's the illegitimate son of Jack Tenorman, making Scott Tenorman his half-brother...and making him largely responsible for killing his own parents.

Cartman also moonlights as the infamous superhero The Coon. He originally joined forces with the boys to form Coon and Friends, but when they all turned against him, he teamed up with the Dark Lord Cthulhu.

This is some old-school production art used while developing the parachute look for Towelie and the boys. The notes are there to give animators cues on which color textures to use while animating.

Where'd The Idea Come From: "Cartman on Speakerphone"

http://1.images.southparkstudios.com/blogs/southparkstudios.com/files/2014/05/1701_BTS_14-cart-phone.jpg

The speakerphone idea really kicked off when Trey did an imitation of how the Kardashians talk on their cell phones.

Fist Bump: Storyboard

http://1.images.southparkstudios.com/blogs/southparkstudios.com/files/2014/05/1703_BTS_Pic13_FistBumpBoard.jpg

After the script is written, the first step in our production process is creating storyboards. Here's a "board" of the fist bump scene, before it was animated bro.
