A Little About his Development
Being a relative for the Orange Guy, AO-Maru was constructed by Leo Blanchette for technologies targeted subjects. Whilst this significantly reduced the amount of prospective uses around the 3d mascot, it did actually strengthen value and uniqueness as a trending persona for the industry experts who looked for distinctive and modern day approach to their product and design imaging.
AO-Maru is created from the Blender 3d design bundle, and sometimes finished in Photoshop. The robot was inspired just a little by 1960s style engineering trends and in a very large aspect bears bodily proportions consistent with the Orange Guy series. The formula, hopefully, was to make a android persona that could represent quite a few roles and technologies as could be, without looking dated or appearing as a an expired style.
AO-Maru is Bringing Products To Life
Often abstract subjects (such as software, programs, an internet discussion board, and so forth) call for a face or a mascot to bring them to life. Actually, this really is what all of Leo Blanchette's mascot series do, if you look at the below mentioned website link. A design consisting of nicely arranged colors, shapes, and proportions is certainly a lovely thing -- but add a personality or mascot to it, and all of a sudden the composition seems to turn into a living thing that can be humanly related too. This ought to be every graphic designer's intent!
This bot, as a design mascot, accomplishes this purpose with precision. A different characteristic built into this mascot is the balance of cute with professionalism. Too cute, and it basically cannot be taken seriously. If it were too professional, then you lose the audience for lack of relativeness. Much like all of Leo Blanchette's design mascots, AO-Maru is balanced in this regard.
