FFGI / FILM FINANCE × WEB3

FROM GENERIC
TO FELIX.

FFGI’s existing mascot lacked the personality its Web3 community needed. I redesigned Felix and built the identity around a character that could carry the brand.

THE BRIEF

Make community film financing easier to explain and recognise.

THE DELIVERY

A distinctive mascot, complete identity, brand guidelines, application mockups and a ChatGPT character workflow.

FELIX / BEFORE & AFTER

Same fox.
New personality.

From a generic 3D mascot to a graphic character built around FFGI’s identity. Move the slider to compare.

WHAT CHANGED

A face the brand
can own.

The redesign gave Felix a distinct look and a clear job: introduce FFGI, explain its community film-financing proposition and lead its communications. The fox became part of the core identity, connecting the logo, character and campaign work.

THE SYSTEM

One direction.
Every application.

I delivered the symbol, wordmark, colour and typography system with brand guidelines. FFGI gained a common reference for presentations, community content, merchandise and events, so new work can stay connected to the brand.

AI / TEAM ENABLEMENT

The team can
make the next one.

I built a ChatGPT character workflow for FFGI, so the company can create new character content itself. The visual direction gives those variations a reference point. The team gains a way to keep producing; each output still needs a human eye for consistency and finish.
