By blending analog cutout animation with 3DCG in Blender, we created a place like a paradise somewhere out there. There, grass, insects, clouds, and even moon stones sing and dance. I’d be happy if it made you want to come back here again and again! Pappidou!!

Directed by Shu Ikushima, the opening visuals for NHK Otsu Broadcasting Station’s latest Shiga news programs, “Oumi Hatsu 630” and “Oumi 845.” The result is a fresh, vibrant visual piece inspired by Lake Biwa. “Oumi Hatsu 630” is designed with a bright, soft, and gentle image, while “Oumi 845” has a slightly more refined, composed nighttime feel. The music is by Hiroko Sebu, known for her film scores and more. In addition to the opening visuals, title cards and other graphics were also produced.

“IMMERSIVE GATE” is a massive gate-shaped installation measuring 2 meters high and 8 meters deep, designed to greet visitors with light and video. The entire structure functioned as an LED display, showcasing ambient logo animations and dynamic 3D CGI visuals synchronized with music, creating an immersive experience akin to entering another world.

One of three digital ad variations for Nikkei Electronic Edition’s “U23 Discount Long.” Based on the previously produced “U23 Discount,” this motion graphics piece uses a subdued tone with an autumn/winter feel. Since the target audience is 23 and under, bright warm colors are used as the key palette so the overall look does not become too heavy. There are three musical versions, each arranged differently with influences from 2-step and future garage.
