UK based animation studio Axis and their client Deep Silver got to see the Dead Island Announcement Trailer take home gold during the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

Axis Executive Producer Richard Scott had this to say about the award, “‘We are overwhelmed to see the Dead Island trailer pick up an award at an even as prestigious as the Cannes Lions. It goes to prove that the dedication shown by director Stuart Aitken and all of the Axis team has really paid off. I also want to give great credit to all the Deep Silver team because without their daring strategy and belief in what we could do this project could have been so different.”
