Hello Readers, What comes to you mind when I say, ‘a girl wearing a red polka dotted dress holding a bread in her hands’ or ‘the cute little boy made of dough with a chef’s hat’ – Amul girl and Pillsbury Doughboy. Why are we talking about these brand mascots? Because your editor aunties at TCP think it’s high time that we have our own mascot. What’s a mascot you ask? Well, a mascot is a symbolic human, animal, or animated object that represents the company. The most popular example from the present times is Vodafone Zoo Zoos. We instantly connect these alien creatures to Vodafone when we see one. Now comes the exciting part. We want you to design one for us. How to design one – Well, what is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of TCP. Now try to give that idea a human, animal, or animated form. e.g., When I think of TCP, I think of fun that I have while writing for you. It’s the image of a laughing child which I would associate with that feeling. You have two weeks’ time to come up with your own version for our mascot. Your mascot could be featured in our newspaper and you could also win some exciting prizes. We love and deeply appreciate originality. Use your own ideas – you never know where they may take you. Enjoy the edition! Priyanka
