BEHIND-THE-SCENES CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT: According to Toby Gard, the lead artist on Tomb Raider, Lara Croft was inspired from films like the Indiana Jones series, Tank Girl or anything by John Woo. Gard also looked to strong female icons like pop singer Neneh Cherry as a basis for his character. Gard designed Lara Croft to have the air of a British aristocrat. Lara is composed of approximately 4,000 polygons and is entirely animated (as opposed to motion captured) to give her movements a fluidity that could not have been achieved otherwise. She was programmed by Paul Douglas and her original Tomb Raider adventures were scripted by Vicky Arnold
