The creative source of the ice pier is Sugar-Coated Berry. In the process of judging mascots, Sugar-Coated Berry's creative works were shortlisted in the top ten, which is the original creative source of the mascot "Bingdundun" of the Beijing Winter Olympics. This work comes from the design team of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts.
Sugar-Coated Berry's idea was created by Liu Pingyun, an associate professor at the School of Visual Arts and Design of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. He said that Sugar-Coated Berry was his childhood memory of Beijing, and the "ice shell" of the appearance of candied haws was "more or less related to the ice and snow movement".
The design team handed in the second revised plan the day before the Lantern Festival. After a short but long wait of 1 days, the new revision idea is to keep the idea of ice shell and try to design around other rare or characteristic animals. Guang Mei design team made many attempts in the ice shell, including deer, tigers and rabbits. Considering that the Winter Olympics is just the Spring Festival, they also designed Yuanxiao and jiaozi.
Source of the name of Bingdundun:
At the time of the p>28 Olympic Games, the name of the mascot was not required to be registered. But now the name specially proposed by the International Olympic Committee also needs to be registered. At the time of naming, the two-word name was given up, because it was difficult to check the customs. At that time, I mentioned three or four words.
The original idea of the ice-shell panda came from Sugar-Coated Berry. "In fact, Sugar-Coated Berry was also called Tang Duner, and' Duner' is a particularly interesting word. There is a characteristic of winter in the north, and it is also very kind. It is as healthy, lively and lovely as the children next door. " Lin Cunzhen said, "As soon as I had this idea, I immediately went online to check, and the results were not repeated. Later, it was found that it was difficult for southerners and foreigners to pronounce' pier', and later we changed it to' ice pier'.
