Create a Mascot
The world is full of scientific information that can help us make informed decisions and take action. However, that information is not always accessible to young learners. Your challenge is to create a mascot that can help make learning about Earth and space science more fun and welcoming for younger audiences.
Vector-Your Friendly Guide To Space
Summary
Mascots are one of the most effective inclusions for spreading the information of Earth and Space science among the youngsters. They bring abstract concepts and data to life. We created a mascot that represents Space Science. Our mascot stand apart in terms of appearance as well as the message it delivers. Since, Schooling begins at home so we have decided to keep our mascot very similar in looks with our human creed which would not only appeal to different generations of the society but bring them together and urge the diversified people to learn about space science!
How We Addressed This Challenge
We have created a mascot that represents earth and space science. Our mascot will help people remember the knowledge which we want to spread and give it a face, character and personality.
It is important as it builds a strong awareness among people and also spreads the message both instantly and effectively. They make learning more accessible and bring abstract concepts and data to life.
Our mascot serve as guides, showing learners how to apply their knowledge and skills. It also communicates the values and mission of the organization or communicator.
We plan to launch our mascot virtually through different social platforms . We would also want our mascot to physically appear at different community events , clubs, meetings, parades and gatherings . This will help acquire a large audience and spread our message.
We hope to reach out to the entire population and spread our message and aware them about space and the vast knowledge it upholds.
How We Developed This Project
Mascots are one of the most effective inclusions for spreading the information of earth and space science among the youngsters. Moreover, mascots are a fantastic way to engage the audience , and they can be marketed over multiple platforms. This inspired our team to choose this challenge.
We tried different softwares for making the mascot and faced many difficulties too. We finally came across unreal engine which solved our problem. We learned it with the help of sources available and then have successfully made this project.
How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project
We took some help from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) . Their youth images on their website inspired us a lot in shaping our idea for the mascot. CSA's main aim is to advance the knowledge of space through science and our team goal is to spread awareness about this with the help of our mascot .
Project Demo
Mascot created by us is friendly, passionate and sensible. The mascot created by us is called Vector and loves to talk about space, earth and the vastness of the galaxy!
