Wiregrass Georgia Technical College surveyed students to guide the creation of Max the Fox, then partnered with h2o creative group to bring him to life. We developed two distinct concepts from their brief, refining through gesture sketches, black-and-white comps, color studies, and a final design. Max now appears on campus materials—including a college bus—and will serve as both a branding tool and training resource. Two mascot costumes are currently in development. A fully collaborative process!
