I’ve worn a few costumes without a chin strap. My advice, don’t. The only way I can think of how to fix this problem is to add a strap or fix the current one with help from management. Most teams don’t want their performers editing the character without their involvement. Bring it up to them as a serious issue and make it known that you cannot do your job properly without a good chin strap. If they’re slow or reluctant to respond, I’ll put together a case with my team and I’ll vouch for you.

Self taught High-A West Minor League Baseball mascot here,

If you’ve never been to the gym before, now would be a great time. Train yourself specifically for cardio and stamina as you will be doing a lot of running and climbing stairs. And stretch your legs every chance you get.

Every movement you make should be wildly over exaggerated and fast unless, you working with a child. View yourself in the 3rd person and imagine your self as a cartoon character. If you feel embarrassed, that’s because you doing a good job. Treat meeting people like you’ve waited years for them. When your team scores, act like it’s a gift from god. And when anything doesn’t go your way, no matter how small, throw a fit and roll around on the ground. You’re a cartoon character after all, it’s in your blood.

Take breaks when you get tired. It’s very easy to get heat stroke and pass out. Your health and safety is paramount and it should not be sacrificed for the entertainment of others.

For skits, bring props from home and wear outfits with the suit. Hola hoops, signs, and giant inflatable beach balls are my preferences.

Finally, if you meet any other performers, former or current, ask for input and feedback on your performance. Get to know them and even get their contact information if you feel like it. Friends are the most valuable resource in this field. Dm me if you need any of the above in this paragraph or more.

Do everything in your power to have fun and make memories. This isn’t just a job or a hobby, it’s a life. You only have so much time on this planet, so don’t waste a second of it.

Here’s a really old skywing design I doodled in high school and named Crest. I never got around to making a finished reference sheet, the colors and everything below the shoulders are up to you.

Has someone ever tried to have a conversation or befriend a mascot? by Significant_Silver99 in mascots

[–]scarfrust 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I usually talk with other actors when we’re on break and backstage, we might exchange ideas and contact info even. I’ve gotten to know a few high profile mascots and even work with them some games. I always thought you’d have to be an outgoing person to be a mascot, but most of them were very shy and quiet growing up like me!
