Brand mascots and characters

A brand with a face of its own gets remembered differently — and is easier to recognise.

For businesses that want to be recognised before their name is read.

Real example

A character recognisable in every detail

The glasses, logo T-shirt and NewBox colours give NewBot a distinctive and recognisable identity.

01Where it starts

A logo does not always reach

They mix you up with the one next door

In your trade everyone uses the same words and similar colours.

The dull parts are hard to talk about

Explaining a technical service without everyone skipping it is not simple.

Each drawing comes out different

If a character already exists, its face changes depending on who draws it.

02The scope

What gets built

What is delivered, and in which formats, is stated in the proposal.

The character

Who it is, how it behaves and what it would never do.

Poses and expressions

One sheet with the ones actually needed, not fifty.

A usage guide

How to use it, at what size and over which backgrounds.

Applied

Placed on the pieces where it will live.

03The journey

How a character comes about

A character is not a nice drawing: it is someone recognisable that can be repeated without deforming.

01

Who it is

What it says about your business, and in what tone.

02

How it looks

Sketches until the face is that one and no other.

03

How it repeats

Poses and expressions so it stays the same one.

04

Where it lives

On the pieces where it will actually appear.
