Synopsis
Lizzie McGuire is all about the ordinary and not-so-ordinary adventures of a junior high student and her two best friends as they try to deal with the ups and downs of school, popularity, boys, parents, a bratty little brother--just life in general. And if Lizzie leaves anything unsaid, you can bet that her cartoon alter ego will say it for her!
Trivia about Lizzie McGuire
The premise for the series was based on a script previously written by Minsky, which featured the main character's inner thoughts and emotions as narration.
Producer Stan Rogow conceived a high-concept version of the script in which an animated version of the character would be featured to convey these thoughts.
The animation was originally envisioned as a talking head in the corner of the screen.
Rogow stated that the visual design of the show was inspired by the film Run Lola Run.
Independent animator Debra Solomon designed the animated version of Lizzie, based on Duff's appearance on her audition tape.
Rather than drawing a mere caricature of Duff, she tried to capture the actress's essence by giving Lizzie's alter ego a more "hip" look: cropped shirts with trim pants and high flip-flops.
