Mascot Design
We modernized the classic character of the brand. We worked on bringing the characteristic and classic character of the Wise brand to the present and making it more relevant. Our challenge was to capture the spirit of the brand and of this character, reflecting it graphically through a character. How to bring Peppy from 1950 to the present? To manage to maintain the spirit of the original character and its essence, as well as communicate the way in which the brand evolved until today, with the original values but adding new positioning and communication.

The first step was to conceptually create the character. Define its personality, its role, its way of relating, of presenting itself to others.
Personality: Vibrant and colorful with large, expressive eyes that radiate enthusiasm and joy. A mascot full of energy and charm that embodies energy, enthusiasm and wisdom. Charismatic and adventurous, it is a fusion of wisdom and inspiration that awakens curiosity and creativity wherever it goes. Role: Serves as a source of inspiration and joy for people of all ages. He is an ambassador of enjoyment, learning, positivity and intellectual curiosity. He loves interacting with people from all walks of life. As the life of the party, he plays a pivotal role in bringing people together and creating memorable experiences.
An important part of designing the character is being able to imagine him in motion,what he looks like in other positions. The way he stands, his facial expression, look, attitude, everything must help build the spirit we are looking for for Peppy.
Peppy The Owl is more than just a symbol; he is the heart of the brand identity, embodying the values, personality and spirit that make Wise Snacks unique. Peppy The Owl serves as a powerful tool to connect with our audience in an engaging and memorable way.
