Default Re: The "Official Online Naughty Dog Store" Thread!

Hi Flatout,

The Press kits I assume are developed by our PR Dept with input from Marketing. Collectors editions are usually a joint project between the game studio, the internal producing team, and Marketing. As far as the Collectibles on the gear store, I make the proposals and develop the products. The Producing team and Naughty Dog have to sign off. For this project, I was originally doing busts for UC4 but when that got pushed, ND decided they wanted a cool collectible to represent the new collection, and I moved on to developing a UC4 statue. As far as you working with these teams, they don't really work with outside collectors. I decided to reach out because I wanted all your feedback.

Gary

I would love to work with whatever team thinks up what promotional items to make and use. Sony with things like press kits is unmatched and gets it right a lot of the time (though they miss sometimes too like with the inFAMOUS Second Son press kit which was pretty uninspired).


Look forward to seeing the final version!
