Kubo and the two strings

We partnered with Focus Features and Laika Studios to celebrate the artistry of Oscar-nominated “Kubo and the Two Strings.” Honoring the release of this fantastical feature-length animation, we launched an integrated, multi-platform campaign to bring together the symbiotic unbridled joy of fans and the magic of moviemaking. I was responsible for creating art for three spreads and art directing and finding "fan art" to be featured in the fanzine. The fanzine was released at Kubo and the Two Strings premiere party in Hollywood, Ca. 

What did I do? I was responsible with concepting and aiding in art direction of the physical magazine. I created a spread layout for the timeline of Laika and the films. I also art directed a three spread section titled, “Fan Art of Laika” of fan art around the world to be featured in the fanzine. We then had a premiere party in Hollywood, Ca for Kubo where I was a live host streaming to fans across the globe.

In 2017 we won a webby for the project!
