The Situation

Sensigreen, a leading name in sustainable HVAC solutions, has built its reputation not only on eco-conscious practices but also on its active involvement in the local community. Hosting and attending numerous events, Sensigreen sought a unique way to strengthen brand recognition and bring their mission to life. The answer? A mascot named Professor Green, embodying both their values and their commitment to engaging customers in a creative way.

Sensigreen wanted a mascot that would not only reflect their brand identity but also be versatile enough for use across various events, social media, and marketing campaigns. Additionally, staying within budget constraints was a critical concern.

The Sensigreen team also needed a partner who could streamline the design process, ensuring that every detail—from the mascot’s face shape to its color palette—perfectly aligned with their expectations. With these needs in mind, Sensigreen turned to Symphonix for a fresh approach.

The Symphonix Solution

Creating custom mascots is no small task, but at Symphonix, we thrive on creativity and personalization.

Here’s the approach we proposed and implemented for Sensigreen’s Professor Green mascot project:

  1. Collaboration: Sensigreen provided us with their initial illustrations of Professor Green, and we designed a detailed process to bring the concept to life.

  2. Trusted Vendors: We partnered with a trusted vendor we’ve relied on for past projects. Our longstanding relationship ensured consistency in quality, attention to detail, and reliability.
  3. Competitive Pricing: Another key consideration for Sensigreen was cost. We delivered a solution that met their budget without compromising on quality or functionality, earning their trust and enthusiasm for this project.

The Execution

The process of creating Professor Green was rooted in close collaboration, meticulous planning, and ongoing feedback. Here’s how we brought Sensigreen’s vision to life step-by-step:

1. Gathering Initial Inputs

To fine-tune the concept further, we sent over a comprehensive questionnaire covering critical design elements:

  • Should Professor Green’s face shape evoke friendliness, professionalism, or cheerfulness?
  • How should the eyes be shaped to best convey the brand’s values?
  • What level of detail should we aim for in the mouth and overall expressions?
  • What are the performer's measurements?

2. First Drafts and Feedback

Using this feedback, we created a 2D virtual proof that showcased the mascot’s overall design. The draft focused on essentials like balance, size, and key aesthetics. We engaged in a back-and-forth review process with Sensigreen, ensuring all elements, from facial expressions to color schemes and proportions, were spot on.

3. Locking in the 3D Design

Next, our vendor partner translated the approved 2D proof into a 3D virtual mockup. This three-dimensional rendering gave Sensigreen an exact preview of what the final costume would look like. Sensigreen also had a chance to provide revisions to the rendering. Ensuring transparency and satisfaction is vital, so this eliminated surprises in the final version.

 

4. Custom Production Process

The result? A durable and visually captivating Professor Green mascot that was everything Sensigreen had hoped for and more.
