Where did Zug come from?

Uscreates have developed a range of Healthy Living Challenge Sheets which encourage primary students to engage in healthy living messages. The sheets feature ‘Zug’ a character who accompanies students on their Healthy Living Challenge giving tips, inspiration and fun along the way.

Graphic Designer Hoo Yang Leung worked with Uscreates to design the sheets. Methods used to create shadow puppets inspired Hoo Yang to create the Zug character. Hoo Yang ripped up paper to create Zug’s strange, quirky shape.

The resources needed to be exciting and engaging but as they are to be reproduced in schools (black and white photocopying), minimal colour could be used. Hoo Yang’s shadow puppet method of character creation was an ideal and innovative solution.
