Dead Island Teaser Trailer Wins At The Other Cannes

Sure, everyone knows about the Cannes International Film Festival, but did you know that there's another one just for advertising? The Dead Island teaser that made waves around the Internet earlier this year has won a Gold prize in the Internet Film category.

The award came from the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity which describes itself as "the world's only truly global meeting place for creative professionals in the communications industry."

The video, which Deep Silver contracted through Axis Animation, beat out multi-part campaigns from Google and Skittles.
