The Weeknd – Echoes of Silence

2021

We produced the collaboration music video “Echoes of Silence” by The Weeknd and Hajime Sorayama. Launched as a flagship project for The Weeknd’s 10th anniversary, this fully 3DCG work was completed over a production period of approximately two years with a team of more than 50 staff members. Centering on Hajime Sorayama’s globally acclaimed “Sexy Robot,” it visualizes an epic romantic tragedy. At HOEDOWN, we handled the concept, planning, direction, and production in an integrated manner.

We created the music video for “Energy Furo” by U-zhaan & Ryuichi Sakamoto feat. Tamaki ROY × Chinza DOPENESS. “Energy Furo” was born from Ryuichi Sakamoto’s classic “energy flow,” rearranged with U-zhaan’s tabla, the rap of Tamaki ROY × Chinza DOPENESS, and Sakamoto’s prepared piano. In the music video, which also features Sakamoto himself, the four musicians performing the song are given a dreamlike treatment against the backdrop of a nostalgic, old-fashioned public bathhouse.

We produced the music video for “tell me tell me,” a song from m-flo’s “loves” project, in which they collaborate with the next generation of artists, released on March 6, 2020. For the first installment of this project, which marked the project’s revival after about 12 years, they welcomed Sik-K from the Korean hip-hop scene, and eill and Taichi Mukai from the Japanese R&B scene. Sharing the same world and concept as Chupa Chups’ “HAPPY COLLOR DAY” concept movie, the music video turned out to be a fun and pop-filled piece that conveys the brand’s message of “FOREVER FUN.”

We handled everything from planning through production for the entire exhibition area of “Gasutenaani: The Gas Science Museum,” operated by Tokyo Gas. Reopened in October 2019, the museum is a facility where visitors can enjoy learning through hands-on exhibits about the features of “energy,” which supports our daily lives, and its relationship to future lifestyles and society. In conjunction with the renewal, we created 15 interactive contents that use the latest technology and allow even young children to learn intuitively.

Future Strata Digging the Future

Description: We produced a video work that serves as new content for the Japan Science and Technology Agency's Miraikan signature exhibit, "Geo-Cosmos." Based on the hypothesis proposed by atmospheric chemist Paul Crutzen that the strata formed by human activity should be positioned as a new geological epoch called the "Anthropocene," the work provides an overview of Earth from its birth to the present. Using a wide range of techniques, including special effects, animation, and CG, and set to music by env.Roy and U-zhaan, it playfully presents the difficult theme: “What will our era leave behind in Earth’s history?”
