Hire ip licensing & custom characters
in Sunnyvale.
We design and develop a custom character (with story, voice, and look) that your brand can deploy across multiple events and seasons.
Bay Area corporate character work peaks at tech-HQ family days (Apple Park, Googleplex, Meta MPK all run major employer-brand family events) and product-launch activations that want a branded mascot or themed performer to anchor a Moscone or Convention Center booth. We staff custom mascots for partner-day events at Nvidia and Cisco, themed performers (sci-fi, retro-tech, period) for corporate murder mysteries and offsite immersives, and IP-safe costumed characters for Levi's Stadium and PayPal Park family-day brand activations. Our Bay Area character pool is multilingual-friendly and briefed on tech-campus confidentiality and photo policy realities. 100% W-2, AB-5 and AB-2257 compliant.
Showcraft serves Sunnyvale and the surrounding CA area with 100% W-2 talent, full insurance, and senior captains on every event. Sunnyvale is the deep-tech anchor of the South Bay — LinkedIn HQ, Google Cloud campuses, Apple Sunnyvale, Juniper Networks, and AMD all run major operations here. We staff brand ambassadors and lead-capture for tech-HQ partner days and product launches, family-day production at the Sunnyvale Community Center, registration and check-in for corporate offsites at the Sunnyvale hotel cluster along El Camino, and demo crews for cloud and enterprise-software activations. Roster runs heavily bilingual EN/ES with strong Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Hindi pools — relevant for the actual tech-workforce audience. Our captains brief talent on confidentiality, photo policy, and on-campus logistics for the major Sunnyvale tech campuses. All staff are 100% W-2 and AB-5 compliant.

Questions Sunnyvale buyers ask about ip licensing & custom characters.
What does IP licensing mean at Showcraft for a Sunnyvale brand?+
We design and develop an original character — costume, story, voice, look — that your brand owns and can deploy across multiple events and seasons in Sunnyvale and beyond. Think of it as a recurring mascot with story DNA: the same character shows up at activations across San Jose & the Bay Area and builds equity over time.
What's the timeline for a custom character build for a Sunnyvale brand?+
Full builds (concept, design, costume fabrication, performer casting, and rehearsal) run 8-16 weeks depending on complexity. Once built, the character can deploy to activations in Sunnyvale and across San Jose & the Bay Area with standard 2-3 week lead times for individual bookings.
Do we own the IP after Showcraft develops the Sunnyvale character?+
Yes — full IP ownership transfers to your brand on delivery. Showcraft maintains the costume, casting, and performer rotations, and you can deploy the character across any market we serve, including Sunnyvale and San Jose & the Bay Area. Licensing terms are spelled out in the build agreement.
Are the performers behind your licensed characters in Sunnyvale W-2 employees?+
Yes. Every performer who steps into a Showcraft-built licensed character in Sunnyvale is a W-2 employee with workers' comp and general liability coverage. COIs name your brand and the activation venue. In California, the structure is fully AB-5 / AB-2257 compliant.
