I enjoyed the title for this cloth bug report during production: "Ellie's Jacket Draw String Cloth Is Too Wild". I created the cloth setup for Ellie's ending costume hoodie strings using Naughty Dog's proprietary cloth tools and hand painted the dynamic weights in Maya. It was awesome getting to play a small role in the iconic final cutscene.
