Deep in the forest, a tiny creature gently plays music――. Each time that sound echoes through the woods, seeds sprout, plants are born, and the world comes alive with color. This work is a magical, heartwarming animation centered on the connection between music and life. It portrays the power of sound and the miracle of life born from harmony with nature. The film was created using Blender and expressed through a charming low-poly visual style. By adopting a simple yet warm design, we aimed to create an atmosphere that gently envelops viewers in the world of the story. We also paid close attention to the subtle direction of light and movement, carefully depicting the forest awakening each time the music resonates. The music is an original composition written by cokiyu, a musician known for creating many fantastical pieces and for contributing music to the film Kokuhaku, starring Takako Matsu. The delicate, dreamlike melodies breathe life into the visuals and add deeper color to the story. Please enjoy this gentle tale of magic, where a small sound can change the world.

Working with Mr. Komiyama, the cameraman!

When I listened to “Dandelion,” I felt that it vividly portrays the pain, strength, and hope involved in living as a human being, and it brought these thoughts to mind. Everyone is born into this world with a reason and a value. Even if you feel ordinary, bored, or restricted, if you keep taking actions that will let your future self smile, then someday surely whatever is “holding you back” will disappear, and you’ll be able to live happily. So, love your own life more. And smile more. I believe that, as we continued filming with that concept in mind, this music video was born from the blending of Rira’s emotions, expressions, subtle movements of her fingertips, gaze, and singing, all seeming to well up from within her.
