Whether you need a new mascot for your school’s big hockey
game, have enlisted Santa and elves for the holidays, or need an engaging,
larger than life figure to draw attention during a product sampling campaign, it
takes two things to ensure success –a well-designed mascot costume and a
talented mascot performer.
It Takes Heart to Captivate
an Audience
A good mascot performer puts on a costume and plays the part;
however, a great mascot puts on the costume and assumes the identity. Wearing a
suit is only a small part of being a mascot performer. More than anything, it
takes heart.
A lacklustre performance breaks character and drives an
audience away by utilizing gestures that are threatening, lacking in any humour, or simply just don't fit the character. Rather
than subjecting individuals and visitors to an awkward if not creepy
experience, hiring a professional mascot performer can ensure a fun experience
with a practiced and high energy mascot professional.
At Hogtown Mascots, our professional performers play not
only to the brand but to the audience ad well. What this means is that they
make use of the gestures, energy and attitude necessary to ensure an engaging
performance that resonates with children and adults, sports fans or potential
customers. They know what does and doesn’t work during sporting events, meet and
greets, parades and more.
All mascot performers aren't the same however. In addition
to talent, experience and training play a huge role. Being a mascot is uniquely
difficult as not only does the performance have to be vivacious with a touch of
humour and wit, it has to be silent as well.
