I’m With CoCo: A Social Media Response to NBC and Conan O’Brian

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Regardless of what side you’re on with this NBC late-night drama, you have to admit, the art for the “I’m with CoCo” campaign is pretty cool! Los Angeles freelance illustrator, Mike Mitchell has created a social media frenzy with his Conan O’Brien illustration showing up everywhere on Facebook. It is being used as “CoCo” supporters’ Facebook avatars. It’s also been blown up into posters and handed out as flyers. Rallies have been formed this week for the public to rally together and show their support at what many feel is disgusting treatment to O’Brien. Any fan of Conan’s reign as Late Night to Tonight Show host will know that he relentlessly makes fun his appearance as a pale-skinned redhead — and Mitchell’s illustration couldn’t be more perfect!

Also, check out artist Jason Baalman’s portrait of Conan. He partnered with Cheetos to create this unique portrait which is 5 feet by 4 feet in size and made with 2000 individual Cheetos! The art took 50 bags in three flavors of the cheese curls to create and 3 weeks to complete! You have the chance to win this poster through JustJared.com
