>>85222496

This design is perhaps the best example of a well executed adventure time inspired style.

They're cute! They're much nicer than the shit ones they had for London 2012.

Doesn't Brazil have an alright animation scene anyway? They're making a Woody Woodpecker film AFAIK

Also isn't this like the 5th thread on this

>>85223107

Why do Olympic games NEED mascots?

>>85222496
pretty good but I don't like the Vinicius's nose

>>85226156
Souvenir revenue and merchandise mostly, the Rio committee said they expect some moderate revenue off of it. I have lots of shirts from Berlin 2006, it's quite profitable to have merch to sell, even more if the mascots are cute.

>>85224266
Japan will probably beat these mascots, despite how cute they are. Hype for 2018 when they probably reveal mascot

>>85222496
Which one is Zika-chan?

One thing I never really got is why they don't make the mascots playable characters in the Mario & Sonic games.

It's cute. I don't know if I'd say it will ever be iconic, but it's cute.

Given I don't think there'll be many iconic symbols for the current period anyway, I don't suppose that's a bad thing. The defining phrase of our times is "That was a thing" - it wasn't particularly noteworthy or interesting, but we know it happened. It was a thing.

Every Brazillian animation I've watched or heard about was a horrifying Asylum tier knock off of an American cartoon movie.

>>85223107
Brazil is living the best time in their animation scene.

Two animation movies with great receptions in festivals around the world, "Boy and The World" and “Rio 2096: A Story of Love and Fury”.

And there is the Animamundi, one of the biggest animation festival in Latin America, if not the biggest.

Is mascot designing a real job? Or just a competition between graphic designers?

Daily reminder that the mascot for Rio's paralympic games is literally a vegetable

>>85251919
Character design is a branch of Illustration. You can be an Illustrator who does character design. There are no professional character designers in that sense.

Hard to believe Pikachu has ascended to being such a staple mascot even outside his own games.

I remember when he was just a fat mouse in Viridian Forest. Now look at him. Practically Mickey Mouse levels of recognition.

>>85222496
They were designed by an actual animation studio, so it's no wonder they actually look appealing and expressive (and it's less surprising that they reference popular cartoon designs).
