By crossing over three different modes of expression—reality, fantasy, and drama—I directed the work to capture “Que Sera, Sera,” or “it will all work out,” from every perspective. I explored new reactions that arise by blending things that seem unlikely to intersect: a fabricated story, a documentary that is not fabricated, and a god’s world created with CG.

I had the honor of directing the music video for “animation” by AliA, a six-member hybrid rock band. Set in a fictional Shibuya and a masked group, I developed and directed a story from the concept stage that blurs the line between reality and dreams.
