In the world of The Last Of Us all hell breaks loose on September 26th. Our partners in Marketing AV wanted to create a special piece to honor the fans on The Last Of Us Day 2023. I was entrusted to lead the charge for bringing the fan art to life. Many artists on our team put their own spin on each of the unique pieces that were submitted by fans and the results were deadly. Our partners were blown away and full of f**k yeahs! The only note from Showrunner Craig Mazin was “Wow. This was really moving to watch! At least for me. :)” and the cut got 800,000 views in one day on Instagram! We’re all so proud of how this came out, the fact we handled it internally and the fact that we had so much fun doing it.
