Character

Creation and design

In the series premiere, "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", Clyde is composed with construction paper and is animated through stop motion. In subsequent episodes, beginning with "Weight Gain 4000", he is animated via computer software, though his appearance is rendered to mimic the style of construction paper used in the first episode. Clyde is composed of primary colors and simple geometrical shapes but is not offered free range associated with hand-drawn characters; he is usually shown one angle and animated in an intentionally jerky fashion.

Clyde has medium brown hair and wears a burgundy coat with blue trim and dark-gray pants. He occasionally wears blue mittens. He is also shown wearing a green t-shirt with a cow's face on it. On some occasions, Clyde can wear a red and white varsity jacket resembling his coat. Trey Parker speaks in his normal vocal range, and is edited with ProTools as the pitch is altered to make the sound like that of a fourth grader. Matt Stone voiced Clyde in "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride", but would not do so again until the Coon and Friends trilogy wherein he voiced Mosquito, Clyde's superhero alter-ego.Шаблон:Citation needed

Clyde is shown to have low intelligence in some subjects, including math, such as in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, where, in solving five times two, he answers twelve, and Mr. Garrison refers to him as "a complete retard"Шаблон:Dubious. On most things upsetting, he would sob uncontrollably, like in the episodes "Fourth Grade", "Fatbeard", and "It's Christmas in Canada".
