This research investigates the character development of Judy
Hopps, the main protagonist in the animated film "Zootopia" by Byron
Howard and Rich Moore. It examines how her evolution, depicted
through Syd Field's Three-Act Structure, contributes to the film's
exploration of societal issues such as prejudice, diversity, and inclusivity.
Furthermore, the study assesses the impact of Judy Hopps' development
on the perception of animated characters as role models for both young
and mature audiences. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative research method
with library research, the study analyzes intrinsic character development
based on Edgar V. Roberts' theory (1983:41) and the narrative structure
through Syd Field's Three-Act Structure. The findings highlight Judy's
transformation from an idealistic rookie to a mature and empathetic
officer who challenges stereotypes and promotes inclusivity,
underscoring the film's ability to convey meaningful messages and
influence audiences across different age groups.
